A flamebaiter's objective is to deliberately cause a negative reaction within a certain discussion thread, that will make other users invest their time in arguing with them. Many more users will reply to the content of these comments than regular ones. It capitalises on the idea that people are more likely to contribute when they are angry to "correct" the flamebaiter.
