Netiquette MattersTreat others the way you would like to be

treated. Avoid using bad language and don’t say things to make others feel bad. Make sure you follow ‘netiquette’.

Understand what is acceptable to do and say and what isn’t. For example, if you type a message to someone in UPPER CASE they may think you are shouting at them.

Take care of yourself. If someone says something rude or something that makes you feel uncomfortable, don’t respond. Leave the chat room or forum straight away.

Tell your parents or another adult if you feel uncomfortable, sad or scared about anything you have seen online.
