INAPPROPRIATE JOKES
Making jokes that could offend others or placing a joke on an existing thread that has upsetting or
distressing content would be considered inappropriate.
PROOFREADING
Before you post a comment, double check that you are saying exactly what you want to say. One small
error can completely change the meaning of your message, so read and read again before sending
SPAMMING
It is normal to want to be noticed in the crowd of people on social media – but spamming (another word for
sending the same or similar messages lots of times) can be annoying and may have the opposite effect!
BEING YOURSELF
If you want to get the most out of communicating online, be yourself. Making up false profiles and alter
egos will only discourage people from talking openly with you and taking you seriously.
CATFISHING
It is considered bad netiquette to pretend to be someone else by using photos of another person or lying
about your identity to others.
