I think we can all agree that good manners includes keeping posts free from racism, sexist remarks, and derogatory comments in general. IMO good manners would also include keeping comments to the point and well written (ie: you are wasting the time of others and therefore being rude otherwise). It also means only posting when you have something of value to add to the discussion. I have read many posts by those who have in excess of 200 posts and have found that a good many of them do not hold any value. The mental image I get is of Jar Jar Binks ala Star Wars Episode One; he was constantly talking, but only about 10% (I'm being generous) of what he said had any importance.
