Remember the spirit of Steampunk and keep it holy
Thou may be a jerk, but never in Steampunk character

Mad Scientists:-
Thou shalt remember, that if thine experiments do not go bang, then thou art going wrong!
Remember, Igors aren't just for life they're for (your) lifetimes.
When entertaining demonic or elder gods, politeness, might saveth your life.
If thine neweth lifeforms doth not match upto thine expectations, maketh sure that they hath been house trained, neutered & vaccinated, before given away as family pets.

perhaps I approached this a bit too seriously, but... well here are nine I came up with off the top of my head.
Thou shalt not diminish any who embrace the ways of steampunk, no matter how small the manner of that embrasure.
Thou shalt not cash in on the trend of steampunk while neglecting the spirit of steampunk.
Thou shalt not sully the name of steampunk or use the term in vain.
Thou shalt not cast aside the old and broken.
Thou shalt not claim what thou dost not own; be it object, idea or accolades.
Remember the past from which the influences are drawn, and keep their memory alive.
Honour those that came before, the sacrifices they made and the discoveries they left to all.
Thou shalt favor quality in craft, as well as manor.
Thou shalt seek to learn and discover.

Persons intending to travel by open carriage should select a seat with their backs to the engine, by which means they will avoid the ashes emitted therefrom, that in travelling generally, but particularly through the tunnels, prove a great annoyance; the carriage farthest from the engine will in consequence be found the most desirable.

Thou art given the freedom to criticise the attire of abusive non-SPs, but only after they hast criticised your apparel. Thou shalt do proper research using the in-house search facility, before starting new threads. (im possibly guilty of this.  ) The in-house WHAT!?(Just joking, just joking...) |

Must admit that I've never been one for rules and regulations and, given the diverse nature of Steampunk, I doubt I could come up with a single one that everyone would accept.
Still, here goes:
"Be splendid to everybody."
"Do what thou willt shall be the whole of the Law."
