Hi Guys,
This should be a relatively short one on titling and posting etiquette.
We are still a relatively small forum. (over 100 signups now! a huge milestone imo)
Since we still quite petite, I think we should all keep in mind how our threads and posts are and their place on the site.
Do's and Don'ts of thread making
DO
- Write your thread in a way where others can contribute
- Separate your thread OP to your contribution to thread, this is good for readability. This does mean you will double-post initially, however that is fine to begin with.
Don't
- Post in a way that only really allows you to post content, we have the blog section for more self centred posts.
- Post hyper specific questions that can be answered with just a yes or no
Same again for posts
Do's
- Keep things somewhat open ended, you never know what input someone might have!
- Be willing to explain/elaborate on a point so that it can be understood by other users/readers.
Don'ts
- Post one word replies without any elaboration. we might joke about it being 'chad' but youre just being a waste of space.
- Double post outside the thread example above. We have edits (at the moment, will change if abused), so if you forgot something, you can just add it via a reply. tapping reply whilst still writing another reply will add an @ and the post number, so you can reply to multiple posts in one post.
- be needlessly antagonistic, always remember, text can come across as more angry/aggressive than you intend. Just keep it in mind.
