I try to be a big, bad, tough business woman.  I try to have a tough skin.  However, some things bother me.  I try to be courteous to other people, even to the extent of curbing my sarcasm, or as I like to call it, Saracasm. I was sitting around waiting for the entire blogosphere to come up with a code of conduct (which we really should), but I’ve decided to become more proactive. 

I will treat people as kindly as possible, I will have a code of conduct for this blog.  I can’t make people be nice to me, but I can have some rules about how to deal with things when I’m not treated the way I like.  Mark, who is the author of the above article makes a very good point, a blog is like a house.  Some people forget to wipe their feet when they come in, & that’s fine.  However, when people willingly sling mud into my house, I’m going to clean it up.  The truth is that most of us are trying to run online businesses & I just don’t think that we have to attack each other.  We will all get a lot further if we are kind & help each other instead of tearing each other down.
