  • Don't get personal; a good general rule: "criticize ideas, not people".
  • Don't post personal/racial/ethnic/gender-based insults, slurs or offensive comments.
  • Don't make posts that are inflammatory just to wind people up.
  • Don't post junk.
  • Do keep messages on-topic and post on the appropriate topic board.
  • Don't duplicate existing topics elsewhere.
