For example, if you join offtopic, prepare to have a thick skin and know that nothing is archived. If you join general, then know that everything is public facing and that there we put our better foot forward. In short, set up the "collision domain", ask nicely that people abide by them, and chances are that you will get some cooperation. (A big problem with this approach is that a lot of useful conversations get excluded from the main list, but I think that this is the best way of solving this, lest you risk the appearance of being too heavy handed)
