As we learn on the MFP Forums every day, each of us has personal guidelines on appropriate ways of framing a message on MFP.

For fun, let's document them here.

I'll kick off:

1- Don't argue with Sarauk

2- Sarcasm is allowed after the fourth page of a thread because anything valuable has already been said in the first three pages

3- Ridicule should never be directed at people

4- Deliberate misinformation is wrong

    Not agreeing with the OP is considered mean!

    8 - Edited: Don't actually READ the OP if you're posting on the first page. Just provide an answer that fits your agenda.
