[...] The debate on whether a code of conduct for bloggers is needed is still alive and kicking. Scott Jangro has offered a simple yet elegant alternative to the proposed code. I think this badge says it all. It’s basically a reminder to everyone to use their common sense when commenting on other people’s blogs. [...]
[...] After Scott Jangro read Tim O’Reilly’s follow up to theBlogger’s Code of Conduct article he mused that a book from O’Reilly Press with a unicorn on the front cover might be in the works. I think that’s a brilliant idea and serves to illustrate how a code of conduct for bloggers is ridiculous. [...]

Looking at Tim O'Reilly's web site he should be made to write on the chalbpoard after school 1000 times

Tim has published a follow up to his Blogger's Code of Conduct, complete with an analysis on all of the feedback he's received, including the use of badges and icons, the need for a "modular" code of conduct, "mechanism", and even legal issues.
It's more serious than I thought.
What's next, a book from O'Reilly Press with a unicorn on the front cover?
Following on the idea of our suggested alternative banner, we've put together a quick resource site: DontBeAnIdiot.org. Have a look.
UPDATE: As I find them, I'll post the blogs that have adopted or written about the DBAI badge. If I've missed yours, please comment here.
