There is no point in anyone modifying their behaviour to account for simulation without knowing the purpose of the simulation. There is no way to know the criteria by which your behaviour may be judged. With this in mind, the dangerous and supremely selfish behaviour advocated in the original article might possibly be why no one really wanted to discuss it.

Besides, I find assuming one is the subject of the simulation rather than one of billions+ of simulated beings on possibly billions+ of simulated worlds rather arrogant.
