Using the Internet So many What: Morality Deals Etiquette Rules So The best use limited by many Rules
Always speak to others the way you would expect yourself to be spoken to in the physical world. Do not curse, swear, or insult others- just imagine what you’d feel like if you were spoken to like that!
Never type a group of words or a phrase in upper case. IT MAKES IT LOOK AS THOUGH YOU ARE SHOUTING, doesn’t it? Other people will get the feeling that you are being a bit rude. The best idea is to stick to regular sentence case when blogging, emailing, commenting, messaging, etc…
Make use of emoticons like and which help you to get your message across. At certain times, what you write in emails or messages may be misunderstood (omg i have too much experience in this matter lol) and using emoticons will help the understanding of your message. They also add a bit of color and interest to the message
Patience is the key on the web these days. If you are upset or angry about something, try and wait a while before writing another message. This way, you can calm down and think carefully about your wording in terms of politeness. Remember, once you hit ’send’, your message has gone into cyberspace forever!
Get to the point! Do your best to keep your messages brief and to the point. This way, the receiver will get a clear understanding of what you mean to say.
Be careful with using the “Reply All” option whilst in contact online. Do you really want everyone to get this message or only the person who sent it to you?
If someone bullies you or writes something bad to you, don’t insult them back. Why? Cause it just doesn’t work! Simply ignoring them or blocking their messages does the trick. If your using a messaging service like AOL, Yahoo, or Gmail (As well as thousands of others) then here’s a little way of permanently annoying them Savea copy of every email that was sent to you which you considered offensive and send directly to the administrators or customer service. This will most likely ban the perpetrator from ever using the service ever again (Ive done this loads of times and it works every single one of them).
Never reply to people online who you do not know. The likelihood of malicious software being present is extremely high these days, and the worst case scenario is where a certain person wants to hurt you!
Do not forward or create spam or chain letters. People would hate you to the max if you did this. It wastes time and has no point. Chain letters are just sometimes random and no one really gives anyway
Never forget to greet people politely in every message you send. It really makes you seem like a friendly person
