My own view is that there is no need for new rules, procedures, protocols etc. All that's needed is for people to be nice to each other. Users need to be respectful of the fact that hack authors have busy lives and can't always help with every little problem, and hack authors need to understand that some people don't understand php fully. I don't, for example, but I have learned some basics over the years, But we all have to start somewhere.
Additionally, neutral people who are not the hack author need to stop posting rude things in threads where people ask for help.
In short....BE NICE! Even if you can't help or don't want to help, be nice about it. It costs nothing.
