Kindness
Humor- in particular the ability to laugh at oneself
Tolerance
Integrity

"good' points, Rambi. Morally good + self-righteous = bad. Other combinations also.

Certainly, tolerance should be on my first tier list. Integrity encompasses several of my words (honesty, loyalty) but also suggests responsibility.

I'll add " a reasonable level of humility' too. I'm not suggesting ego-less, but the desire to improve, the lack of judgmentalism and the capacity to poke fun at oneself are part of it.

Good and Nice can be different though. Maybe the list we're after is "What qualities are present in a good person that make them nice, as well?"
