Posting Suggestions

[Sewadar]

• Make it clear that what you post is your opinion - use 'I think', 'I believe', 'In my opinion'.

• Don't generalise - if others generalise don't assume it's a personal attack on you.
• Respect one another's views even if you don't agree. Use 'I disagree because...' rather than 'You are wrong/stupid/talking rubbish'
• Don't insult other posters or their viewpoint.
• Don't goad or use sarcasm to insult other.
• If you are upset or angry, take a step back, don't post in anger.
• Don't derail a thread. If another member posts something off topic, don't reply - if you want to discuss it, start a new thread.
• If another member misunderstands what you said, explain calmly what you mean, rather than accusing them of lying or deliberately misrepresenting you.
• It is fine to disagree, and to discuss different opinions in a civil manner. Heated debate, though, will not be permitted.
