Respect differences of opinion, and resist the urge to be defensive or assign blame.
Remember that people have different communication styles, and that not everyone is using their native language when using reddit. Meaning and tone can sometimes be lost in translation, so try not to take offense where no offense was intended.
Productive communication requires effort. Think about how your words will be interpreted.
Interpret other redditors' arguments in good faith, and give people the benefit of the doubt. When you do disagree with someone/something, try to understand why.
Try not to offer UNconstructive criticism; offer or at least solicit suggestions on how to change/improve a POV or argument.
Being snarky and aggressive is not conducive to the great discussion that we've come to know and expect from r/JamesBond, so keep snipes and insults to a minimum. It is the responsibility of all parties to de-escalate conflict when it arises.
Remember that discussion about derogatory/offensive/sensitive issues often leads to unnecessary conflict.

If you have film rankings or Bond 26 speculations, consider waiting to share them on our megathreads devoted to those topics.
Also, users should generally refrain from posting more than two new submissions per day.
Taken together, these rules will help prevent clutter on the main feed.
