I understand. The point is that people can be irritating despite best 
intentions, and all recommendations listed on this thread thus-far are not 
sufficient...

Too bad for you then that one admin disagrees...

The problem with the Golden Rule is that some values are subjective.

Take my last few posts for example. Some saints out there actually think that 
[my jokes](http://forum.nim-lang.org/t/2738/3#17079) are funny, and that my 
occasional ["keep it copyfree"](http://forum.nim-lang.org/t/2620/2#17150) 
advocacy is not particularly annoying.

The rule is: Utilise common sense and [the Golden 
Rule](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Rule).

There are no official rules. There have been threads about having a CoC and the 
majority was against it. General opinion usually is _„instead of thinking about 
rules, just write some Nim code“_. There also isn't some big sign on your front 
door which tells you how to behave while out on the street, yet people get 
along with each other most of the time.

Good point, I don't rememeber any official forum rules. But I can give you some 
recommendations if you want to:

>   * Be nice.
>   * Don't start a flamewar.
