Net And Communication Etiquettes


Net and Communication Etiquettes is known as ‘Internet Etiquette’ or ‘Netiquette’.

Just like etiquette is a code of polite behaviour in society, netiquette is a code of good behaviour on the Internet.

This includes several aspects of the Internet, such as email, social media, online chat, web forums, website comments, multiplayer gaming, and other types of online communication.


10 rules to follow for good Netiquette :

  1. Avoid posting inflammatory or offensive comments online.

  2. Respect others' privacy by not sharing personal information, photos, or videos that another person may not want published online.

  3. Never spam others by sending large amounts of unsolicited email.

  4. Show good sportsmanship when playing online games, whether you win or lose.

  5. Don't troll people in web forums or website comments by repeatedly nagging or annoying them.

  6. Stick to the topic when posting in online forums or when commenting on photos or videos, such as YouTube or Facebook comments.

  7. Don't swear or use offensive language.

  8. Avoid replying to negative comments with more negative comments. Instead, break the cycle with a positive post.

  9. If someone asks a question and you know the answer, offer to help.

  10. Thank others who help you online.
