Okay, do you have Netiquette??
Netiquette is a portmanteau of "network etiquette", is the convention on electronic forums (Usenet, mailing lists, live chat, and Internet forums)
or in other words,being civilized on the net(examples of a violation on Netiqutte is flaming, cross-posting,)

So do you have it??

I don't think there are many people who would say that they are Netiquette.

I certainly am not Netiquette, as I would go and flame/spam/stab anyone over the internet that has norespect for others, or holds grudges over long periods of time D:

But apart from that, I think I'm quite Netiquette in PC :)

I have enough of this netiquette more often than not. The internet however is a place where I can be a self-centred git and not get smacked around the gob for it, so I take my share of leniency as I expect others do too. Don't worry though, I don't get any worse than I am here... except I don't need to inhibit using swear words as interjections in other places. :D

I think I could say I have netiquette.
I don’t really recall flamming or flying off the handle anywhere... more than once. :knockedou

I try to keep my cool everywhere, even here at PC. I believe behave the same way on the internet that they behave in life. If you act like a jerk in your real life... well more than likely you're going to be a jerk on the internet. If you're civilized and reserved in life, that's what is reflected on the internet.

Can you guess how I am in real life? ;)

I should hope I do, but I don't make a concious effort. I just like to avoid arguments and confrontation (I like discussion, but not arguing). And use proper grammar if I can, to me that's neti.

I have lost my temper from time to time. Mostly in the distant past. I later decided it's less stressful to not take flamers and trolls seriously. I guess I could still get testy if a mod treated me unfairly, but for my own sake over anything else I try to take the most productive course of action - e.g. contact a higher up staff member about the situation.

The only time I might really get ugly online is if someone who I actually had respect for were to flame me for little or no reason. That's happened before, I really expected more from them than that since they hadn't flamed anyone else and besides that I found them quite respectable. Obviously after that... I didn't have any respect for them at all.

I'd say I have Netiquette. I'm bad at English sometimes, that's the only thing :) But I hardly never swear and I don't overdo the smileys......... if I'm not in a XD-mood.

Whoa. I feel the XD-ness coming over me again....

I never flame people, internet is too sensitive, since you don't know people by the faces, just by the letters they write, you could take things more seriously that it was meant to... Maybe that didn't make sense. Hm.

I think I have netiquette, but it's hard to keep it up on some forums due to other members being total idiots and flaming everyone who posts a thread. PC is great though, I've never seen anyone being flamed for no reason. There are some members who need to release the caps lock key though. (Those are the people who deserve to be flamed)

I certainly am not Netiquette, as I would go and flame/spam/stab anyone over the internet that has norespect for others, or holds grudges over long periods of time D:
Those are also the people who deserve to be flamed.

Indeed, Netiquette is not commonly found in forums, bulletin boards, or any kind of online community. Rather, posters are inclined to use slang and meaningless terms to express their stupidity and simple-mindedness. Perhaps if Netiquette was more widely discussed, our forums would be filled with helpful and informative posts, appealing to the more intellectual public.

Heehee ^_^

I can be netiquette. Most times. On some forums however, when I want a point proved, I'll flame and flame untill I get it. :badsmile:
