Sure.

1. B.S. should not be tolerated. If someone claims they have an intake tube that makes 30hp, the topic gets locked and deleted. Now obviously some "BS" is an opinion, but as long as the opinion is respectful and not COMPLETELY out of the ballpark, it should be allowed to stay.

2. MORE MODERATION. Some topics have done more than 'beat a dead horse', they've beaten the horse until there was nothing left but chunks and a bunch of goo. Once a topic has done that, it's too late. We need more active moderation, but people who are impartial to WHO is misbehaving. Nobody should be 'picked on'.

3. NO BAITING. Playful baiting is alright, but the type of trolling that just causes fights should not be allowed, ie, deleted and the member(s) responsible should be warned.

4. BE TOLERANT. This goes for opinions, as well as whatever people bring up.

Any other ideas?
