I'd love to get 10 comments to +5 (for Pundit badge) (at time of writing, need more 6 votes)...

Generally pretty chill and friendly, though sometimes misunderstood

The wise know what they don't know

Please put something (anything) interesting in that 'About Me' of yours

Don't serial upvote, a bounty and/or one or two upvotes is fine though

Free online courses are awesome!

• In the spirit of hypocrisy, 3k reputation users should tend to the close vote queue
• Up-vote or accept answers
• Be kind
• Format properly - Look at the preview, Don't fear line breaks, Format code properly
• Don't robo-approve
• Don't post duplicate or non-answering answers. Also, don't upvote these
• Post a >>minimum<< test case that reproduces the problem
• Stick around for a while after asking a question to answer comments
• Pop in every now and again to tend to responses until you have an accepted answer
• Don't down-vote and leave. Give some time for it to be fixed. Preferably comment. Don't down-vote minor issues like minor syntax errors
• Don't be a help vampire. (My) summary:
  • Give enough details so the question is answerable. We're not psychic
  • Don't ask for a program to be written for you
  • Don't duplicate questions, there are reasons questions don't get answered
  • Learn, don't just want an answer
  • Look elsewhere for the answer before asking a question
• Hints to writing a good question

This is awesome
