45. Identify 3 online etiquette (netiquette) tips? Answers may vary. Here are possible answers:
a. Thanking, acknowledging and supporting people. People can’t see you nod, smile or frown
as you read their messages. So, if they get no acknowledgement, they may feel ignored and
be discouraged from contributing further. Why not send a short reply to keep the
conversation going? If the online group is small, this can make a big difference.But bear in
mind that in a large, busy forum too many messages like this can be a nuisance.
b. Acknowledging before differing. Before you disagree with someone, try to summarise the
other person’s point in your own words. Then they know you are trying to understand them
5
and will be more likely to take your view seriously.Otherwise, you risk talking at each other
rather than to each other.
c. Making your perspective clear. Try to avoid speaking in an impersonal way, using phrases
like: ‘
i. This is the way it is …’
ii. ‘It is a fact that …’
That will sound dogmatic and leaves no room for anyone else’s perspective.
Why not start ‘I think …’?
A common abbreviation is IMHO (in my humble opinion) – or even IMNSHO (in my not so
humble opinion). If you are presenting someone else’s views, say so, perhaps by a quote and
acknowledgement.
