If not, there should be. Let's start one.
1) if you can't say it under 140 characters, DON'T FUCKING SAY IT. No more four tweet stories. It's annoying.
2) @replies are good three times only. after that, head to the DMs
3) the exception to #2 is when 4 or more people are involved. it could lead to some seriously cool thinking.
4) we don't ALWAYS need to know WHAT you're doing. I think it's time we look past the literal translation.
5) text shortcuts are okay, but think about it. Do we really need OMG or LOL? Let us decide.
6) businesses, stop tweeting links only. i get that you're trying to advertise, but that's not what twitter is about. inviting me to your forum still counts as a link.
7) as an addition to #6, please stop feeding comments into twitter. we don't need to know when someone commented on the blog post you just tweeted the url to six times in the last 10 minutes.
8) get a real avatar, be it your personal logo or a picture. enough with the manga, enough with the pointless pictures or corporate symbols. Be you.
9) use your REAL NAME. stop hiding behind an anonymous sounding screen name.
Any thing else?

As a former Mega man icon, I have to take issue with the 'be you' rule.
Maybe we should force people to show personality... mangas and logos clearly don't have much of that.
I see your point, but shouldn't our personality show through in our actions and words? Putting a face to name makes it real, so we don't make the same mistakes the anonymity of the internet let us get away with in years past.
