The simple fact is that if you play nice and let others play nice with you, most people will join in in the same spirit. And if you get most people to play nice, you can ignore the rest until they go away. (NOTE: This does not apply to the not-nice people with the means to cause serious physical harm. Different rules apply for those situations.)
