Think Before You Speak
The old saying, think before you speak is important.
Things you say can and more than likely will hurt other internet users’ feelings if you don’t think before speaking.
Think Before You Write
A word of advice: Do not respond when you feel angry, wait. Write down your thoughts and come back When you reflect, you may find that you no longer feel as strongly as you did when you began.Reflection time makes a difference.
Be Considerate of Others
If you feel the need to be heard, then edit before you post, and write it in terms that are easily understood.
