Don't judge anyone on their interests or the fandoms they may belong to.

Drama can come in many forms:
1. Be careful of where you take pics of Cosplayers. High traffic areas especially intersections at a con can make people upset and get official con personnel to get you to move on which can make you lose a photo chance. Best to ask a Cosplayer that you want to take a picture of them first then pick a better spot. Learned this lesson the hard way at one con.
2. Beware of your surrounds, especially if you are either from out of town, or it's the first time at a con. Some people unfortunately will pick pocket you or worse if you are not paying attention. Also don't "gauk" at a scene that's happening nearby. It's best to leave the area so that you don't get accidently involved in the situation.
3. If you are in a line be courteous and respect the order of people in the line. Also keep an eye out for when the line moves. Sometimes you can easily lose your place and get someone upset if you rejoin the line in a different spot.
4. Beware of large or elaborate Cosplay outfits. These people have spent a long time making them and could get really upset if you damage their outfit.

Be able to communicate with your friends! The lack of communication is something that REALLY annoyed my friends when I went to con with them--most of our group disappeared and we were really worried.

My sister and I have the Ten Commandments of a Con that helps to avoid any drama.
1. Listen to the volunteers and staff and read signs. No one has to look like an idiot save by their own means.
2. Don't forget to peace-bind weapons. The staff and volunteers will call you out in front of everyone.
3. Don't glomp people. It's not only rude, but it's dangerous.
4. Respect personal space. If you hit into someone, just say sorry. Also make sure to look down. I've been run into and elbowed just because someone didn't see someone under 5 feet. I do snap at people when I feel it was their fault because I'm sick of it. *Goes on a rant*
5. Be respectful. Even to the jerks. If you're nice to them and people notice it they're going to poke at the jerk and not you.
6. Make sure of taking a bath. There are people who hate your B.O. and will snap at you.
7. If you're cosplaying make sure that the pose you're in (even when in a relaxed position) isn't something that you don't want your mom to see. I took a great picture of some girls and they told me 'don't post it anywhere, delete it, I can't let my mom see it' shouldn't have been doing it then.
8. Keep vocal level down so people don't have to listen to your yelling.
9. Some people who've studied Japanese don't like people to try to talk it. Terms are one thing, like Shojo or Hentai, but don't say desu, it's pronounced Des.
10. Remember timing. If you're going to drag your friends around and they want to do something and they tell you it's at this time, then be there are be a drama maker.
