Information
About Netiquette Rules
Is a combination of the words
internet and etiquette. Netiquette rules are the rules of conduct for
respectful and appropriate communication on the internet. Proper netiquette
helps you avoid offending friends, family, and other people in your
social network.
Netiquette
Rules
1. Be Respectful to others
privacy and opinion.
Don’t forward or share information sent to you without permission to the original sender first. You should not publicly show or post private information about someone if you’re not the owner.
2. Use proper emoji and emotions.
Emotion icons, such as smiley faces, can help show your tone or intention. For example, if you want people to know that you’re joking or emphasize that you’re not upset, a smile and emoticons are useful. You can use them sometimes, but don’t overuse them.
3. Use proper writing or spelling.
Start your posts with a greeting and end with your name. Writing in all caps usually means being angry. Using too many abbreviations can be irritating and confusing. Use proper spelling to help make a good impression. Avoid heavy slang, unusual acronyms, abbreviations, alternate spellings, and other word shortcuts when communicating in a professional conversation.
4. Use proper language or
comments.
Do not use slang or even disrespectful words in an online environment, even if they are words you consider,
"not so bad," as they will sound offensive to the reader. You can use them to your friends who understand but always remember to not use them in public post for it can indeed be offensive and others will might get confused. Choose
words that accurately reflect your thoughts and feelings. Avoid making blaming
statements, they can harm other's feelings. Know the meaning of words and phrases you choose so the reader can understand properly with no confusion. It is very
important to use language that fits or matches your audience.
5. Never accept friend requests
from strangers.
Cyber safety is a real issue and important. Accepting friend requests from strangers can put you at a risk of online threats. Scammers may hack your profile to collect personal information and gain access to online accounts. Sharing your personal information with unknown persons on the internet can result in identity theft and other problems.
6. Ask permission before posting
pictures online.
Do not post pictures without
the permission of the owner. Be respectful of people’s privacy and never post something if you were told not to do so. In some cases,
posting someone’s photo without consent is illegal.
7. Distinguish real friends from
virtual friends.
Bad people are everywhere. Of course, you do not talk to strangers on the streets. Similarly, avoid trusting strangers and talking to them online. With a fake account, they might deceive you into talking with them and revealing personal information about yourself or your family. Accordingly, they can steal your identity and harm you or harm others by using your name.

Our group learned that it is important to follow netiquette rules because the internet is now an essential part of our lives. It is where people interact and communicate with each other and that is why we need to have rules and keep a safe community for every one.
The challenges we experience in our group is distributing the work equally among the group members. We also took some time to complete our design because each one has a different idea.
