Publish the rules, and enforce them impartially, in an open accountable fashion.

Say, now THERE'S and good idea! Who'd a thunk it. ;^)

Don't get too excited. --- The last time I ran that idea up the FR flagpole, I got a one word answer from the boss.

NO.

Look, if your mother did not teach you proper etiquette as a child, and or if your (presumably) adult life experiences have left you lacking in the area of proper conduct and behavior in a public setting and or in mixed company, then perhaps you should go down to the nearest public library and check out a book. There are also numerous websites available that teach proper netequitte (do a google search). How is it that 95% or better of of our members (including many paleocons, libertarians, and Buchananites, not to mention several democrats and liberals) have absolutely no problems abiding by the simple guidelines already posted. Use just a tiny bit of commonsense and courtesy when you communicate with people and you would have a whole lot less trouble being accepted in polite society. In the meantime, why don't you grow a pair and quit your bellyaching. Your constant whining is grating on the nerves.
