 Many discussion forums post a sticky etiquette thread. Can we maybe have something like that here? 
 For example:

&lt;p&gt;My experience with forums is that such an etiquette thread is not exactly what does the trick. The quality comes mainly from active moderation, and an etiquette thread is mainly to have something to refer to when a user or moderator is reacting to something.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another thing is that Nordic Developer Zone is not really a forum, but a Q&amp;amp;A website. I have mainly looked at Stack Exchange or Atlasssian Answers to get ideas on this topic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, the moderation tools are already present, so if you feel there is a problem with a question you can down-vote it and leave a comment on why the question was not a good one. I think it is important that people that care about this forum, like yourself, do this kind of moderation, and will contribute to a good community culture.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, if you feel that an etiquette page will serve as a moral support for moderation, or give more weight to your feedback, I think it is a good idea to create a post of some kind.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Etiquette</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/4011?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sat, 25 Oct 2014 20:46:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:9163e212-4bf5-48ea-986d-ab7a00292fc2</guid><dc:creator>Petter Myhre</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you for the feedback.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m not sure how effective it will be, but it couldn&amp;#39;t hurt.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I will look into it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
