Some Netiquette Guidelines       

1.  Remember to treat others online as you would like to be treated.

2.  When you receive an e-mail which says to send it to everyone you know, please don’t.

3.  When you send messages online, make yourself look good by proofreading and correcting mistakes before pressing the send button.

4.  Do not type messages in ALL CAPITALS.  It’s like shouting.

5.  Respect other people’s privacy.  Do not forward other people’s e-mails without their permission.

6.  Be forgiving of other people’s mistakes online.

7.  Ask before you send huge attachments.

8.  Keep your communications short and to the point.

9.  The internet is not private.  It is a mistake to assume that it is.

10.  Do not leave the subject field blank in e-mails.

11.  Do not forward jokes, chain letters or unimportant e-mails without the recipient’s permission.

12.  If you receive a nasty e-mail do not respond immediately, if at all.

13.  Do not forward virus warnings.  They are generally hoaxes.
