Default How to behave on an internet forum

Hey guys, found this video and thought it was quite good as sometimes (not on this forum - of course!) you meet people who do not know how to behave on forums. Thought it was a good beginners guide to forums.

How To Behave On An Internet Forum

Internet forums are either a brilliant community where you can meet and chat with new, interesting people, or full of scornful idiots who deserve to be banned from The Net in its entirety. This film explains some of the common mistakes people make in forums, which makes them the sort of loathsome fool no one wants to know.

Step 1:
Flame Wars


Step 2:
Godwin's Law


Step 3:
Fanboys


Step 4:
Teenagers


Step 5:
Post Count


Step 6:
Respect the Admins


Step 7:
DON'T USE ALL CAPS IN YOUR POST


Step 8:
Lurk Before Posting


Step 9:
Keep On Topic


Step 10:
Picture Etiquette


Step 11:
NSFW


Step 12:
Signatures


Step 13:
Avatars


Step 14:
Gravedigging


Step 15:
Drama


Step 16:
Smilies


Step 17:
Read the FAQ and Forum Rules
