1. Flaming is the act of sending or posting messages that are deliberately hostile and insulting, usually in the social context of a discussion board on the Internet. Such messages are called flames, and are sometimes posted in response to flamebait. [Wikipedia]

2. Potentially pejorative adjective for a gay man whose behavior is reflected in common stereotypes, such as flamboyancy, promiscuity, and prominent sexuality. [Also Wikipedia]

3. Fl?ming is a region in Germany. [Also Wikipedia, English Teachers hate me...]

4. Flaming is also a song by Pink Floyd [I knew that, but memory was refreshed by Wikipedia!]
