What seems to work for me is just going with the stated rules and warnings on specific posts. I do not assume that every post that doesn't get a warning is civil any more than I assume that all the people around me driving 75 mph means that the state speed limit has been revoked and that I can go as fast as I like without a ticket. If in doubt, kindness is almost always civil, being witty or winning the exchange may not be.
