French term
blaster sur le chat
French to English
Bus/Financial
IT (Information Technology)
From a whatsapp chat:
ça faisat longtemps qu'[il] t'avais dit de ne plus blaster sur le chat SG (comme toi tu avais demandé à [lui] de ne plus blaster sur le chat JP...) il n'avait pas à réagir comme ça !
I don't think this is anything to do with cats. Could it be chatting/chatrooms? And what is 'blaster' as a verb?
Many thanks!

rant in the [...] chatroom
Blaster is an anglicism. You could leave it as "blast in the [...] chatroom, but I like rant better.

flaming SO on messenger
Guessing it's a net-ism, context would suggest some kind of negative interaction on social media like chat system (WhatsApp etc)

: "Flame" is the authentic verb but not necessarily Messenger, surely?

Yes, agree, could be chat is more generic - for example WhatsApp refer to themselves as "WhatsApp Messenger is a cross-platform mobile messaging app" but chat would cover all the bases

informal Criticize fiercely:
the school was blasted by government inspectors
Autres phrases d'exemple
She has blasted the senator's criticism of the war by reminding viewers that he voted for the war.
Critics blasted him for pouring taxpayer funds into badly managed banks and unneeded infrastructure projects.
It was also a colossal failure, shunned by audiences and blasted by critics as ‘pretentious.’
Or to shame someone :
http://fr.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=blast
You could probably go with a synonym to fit your sentence more smoothly :
He told you to stop putting people down [...], SG (just like you asked him not to do it [...] either, JP), he souldn't have reacted like that!
"to put (someone) down" might work well.
