Proper manners help make a community get along well. With so many members its important to be aware of your tone, your grammar, etc.

Here are some commonly used "Netiquette" rules:
  • Typing in ALL UPPERCASE LETTERS is considered yelling.
  • *Asterisks* surrounding a word can be used to make a stronger point.
  • Try to remember good writing skills; punctuation (or lack thereof) can change the whole meaning of a sentence. Paragraphs make it easier to read a lengthy message.
  • Remember that these discussions are "public" and meant for supportive and constructive exchanges. Treat the others on the thread as you would want them to treat you.
