Star all posters who make some kind of effort.
Be a good thread host, pay attention to detail, and be courteous.
Don't flood ATS with nonsense.

I couldn't agree more.
Nothing chaps my a$$ like a thread with a title like this>>>...*I'm going to bed early tonight*....

what do you suppose constitutes a nonsense thread?

I've only started a few threads, the most active one (which isn't a lot) is the one on my signature, about helping members with their avatars, sigs and background images. I try too keep it up to date and if someone has a problem I try my best to help them.
A few points I consider important:
-Make a good, informative OP, don't just post a link to a video and write "Thoughts?" at the end.
-Sources are important, don't forget to link back to them.
-Don't feed the trolls! If someone is being disruptive, alert them instead of replying because then you'd have several pages of banter that could possibly get the thread closed.
-Be polite. If you disagree, don't recur to insults. Instead, respectfully state your opinion.

1. Can you read the Whole OP before responding ?
Apparently not everyone reads the OP completely before responding and sometimes they even reply in a rude manner. That's just wrong.
I try not to respond to any thread where I see that the OP has "Left the Building", as is in your case, but I'm going to respond anyway..
