Welcome to my article about getting on the internet and not looking like a total ignorant biased jerk. I'm gonna make a list of no-no's.

• No name calling. Not even if they deserve it.
• If you do have to call someone something, use references to make sure it does not have any worse meanings than what you wish to imply.
• Don't start flame wars, nor carry them on. You may mediate them, though. It's unlikely you'll get anywhere.
  
• Most people, once anonymous, say whatever they think. Do not attack them solely for this.
• Keep your language clean. It's a major problem, and makes you look like a barbarian. Seriously, you don't have to swear if you can think before you post.
• Accept any criticism for face value. Do not retaliate.
• Do not say anything to start a flame war. You will annoy somebody by directly attacking them.
• If you keep your own site, remain impartial to your users.
• The same runs true for blogs and forums. Be fair. Though odds are if you're new, you will have no problem here.
• Take any advice, they're just trying to help you out.

    So, what do you think?
