What is Netiquette?
The term comes from the words "network" and "etiquette". It refers to maintaining good manners when interacting with others while online.
Treat others the way you would like to be treated. Avoid using bad language and don't say things to make others feel bad.
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.
Keep your password secret. Don’t even share it with your friends.
Tell an adult if you feel uncomfortable, sad or scared about anything you have seen online.
