Is the effect of Hieratic Dragon of Nuit activated if you Tributed by the effect of another Hieratic monster in Yu-Gi-Oh?
Anovia
Hieratic Dragon of Nuit activates when it is 'targeted'. In 99% of cases (including the Hieratic monsters), when a monster is Tributed, they are tributed as a cost to activate an effect, they are not targeted as targeting is nominating which card will be affected by the effect resolution, and occurs after costs are paid.

Can you tribute a monster summoned by 'Call of the Haunted' the same turn it's activated?
No part of Call of the Haunted's activation prevents monsters from being tributed. Of course, if you activate it in your opponent's turn, you could only tribute the monster for a spell speed 2 effect or trigger.
Do flip effects have to work if tributed?
If the face-down monster is tributed, then no, any Flip Effects it has will not activate. Under normal conditions therefore, you should flip the monster first, allow the effect to activate/resolve, then tribute the monster for whatever. But you are out of luck if your face-down Flip Effect monster is tributed by the opponent using Soul Exchange, for example. Because it never 'Flips' (even though it goes to the graveyard face up) the effect will not activate.
Are monsters used for a Synchro Summon considered 'Tributed'?
No, they are simply 'sent to the graveyard'. They are not Tributed, which is a specific form of send, but anything that specifically Tributes a monster will say so on the card.
Examples of tribute?
If you have a level five or higher monster in your hand, you can tribute one or more monster(s) on your side of the field to play it. If a card's cost/flaw (ex.mystic wolk:tribute one monster. Gain life points equal to the original attack of the tributed monster) activates, that tributes as well.
How does the 'Flint' Equip Spell card work say your oppenent tributes his monster while it has 'Flint' equipped is it destroyed?
Yes, Flint would be destroyed in that case. You equip Flint to a monster, and if that monster would be destroyed, then you (must) re-equip it to another monster. Though initially you'd probably place it one the opponent's monster, the mandatory re-equip may mean you have to put it on one of your own. However if the equipped monster is not 'destroyed', ie, if it is tributed, or removed from play by an effect such as Caius the Shadow Monarch, then Flint itself will be destroyed and go to the graveyard.
If you tribute a monster to summon a LV 5 or 6 monster can you set the tributed monster face-down position?
You can set the monster you tributed for, but the tributed monster is sent to the graveyard
Can you Tribute a face-down monster without flipping it face-up for a Tribute Summon?
Yes, the tributed monster does not have to be face-up at all, it can be tributed while face-down.
Can you attack with ANY summoned monster or are there limits such as when tributed?
Not unless the monster specifically has a restriction on its card.

Can you use creature swap and tribute it?
Yes, the monster obtained by the effect of Creature Swapcan be tributed.
Can you combo Kickfire's effect with Spiritual Fire Art Kurenai's effect in Yu-Gi-Oh?
No, there is no synergy. Spiritual Fire Art - Kurenai tributes a monster as a cost. Tributed monsters do not count as being 'destroyed', effects that trigger from monster destruction will not activate when a monster is tributed. In the case of Kickfire, you would not be able to place a counter on it, as the FIRE monster was not destroyed.
Can you attack with a monster then tribute it to summon another monster in the same turn?
Yes, this is legal. You have two main phases, one either side of the battle phase, there is no rule that says a monster that attacks can't be tributed, or that attacking stops you summoning. You can attack with a monster, then tribute it for a tribute summon in main phase 2.
If you obtain an opponents monster by any means and then tribute it do they have the option of returning that monster to hand instead of the graveyard?
No, there's absolutely nothing of the sort. The monster goes to the graveyard, just like any other tributed monster.
Can you tribute a token for any monster?
As long as the card that summoned the token does not mention any restrictions, then yes, token monsters may freely be tributed for a summon. Some do have restrictions set on them, for example, Sheep Tokens from Scapegoat cannot be tributed for a tribute summon, but could be tributed as the cost for a Special Summon.
Can a monster equipped to Relinquished be tributed?
Monsters who go into the S/T zone for any reason are then treated as Continuous Spell Cards or Equip Spell Cards depending on what it is doing. It is no longer a monster card so is unaffected by anything that specifically affects monster cards, and cannot be tributed for a tribute summon, etc. However if something required you to send an Equip Spell Card to the graveyard, you could use that monster.
