It annoys me to no end that I even feel I need to write these down, but
apparently I do. So, here are a couple of simple rules to guide your
behaviour around here:
1. Do not call other developers nor users idiots nor other derogatory
terms on the mailing list.
2. Do not use Twitter or other public broadcasting systems to call
other developers or users idiots or other derogatory terms.
That's all, pretty simple actually. Most well-adjusted people would not
stand up in a crowd of people and start calling people around them
idiots. Just because there is a monitor and a network cable separating
you from the crowd doesn't make it ok, and I am tired of it.
Before your next email to the list or public tweet, blog post or
whatever, walk away from your computer for a couple of hours and think
about what you are about to write and whether you are anywhere close to
falling under one of the above 2 simple rules.
