The solution is SIMPLE: no ad himinum attacks.
 
All ideas are open to criticism provided that the person who delivered those ideas is not subject to criticism. All we have to do is make a distinction between arguments and personalities. Comments that ridicule an IDEA are OK, but comments that ridicule a USER are not.
 
i.e. "that's a stupid idea" is OK
" you're stupid for thinking that" is NOT OK
