Internet Writing Guide (A Must-Read!)

Seun, I have read through and I commend you for the information. It's very useful.

I think with this we will improve in our messages and conversations.

great!

Resourceful. Thanks

I agree with most of what the author says.. it's really the basics.. but the only point I'm at variance is with the issue of brevity..

I guess it's because I try to express my thoughts as clearly as possible, and tend to get verbose in the process...

still, how do you reckon the thing would be applied here, considering the fact that we have a lot of perculiarities which make this forum unique..  one being that it's a nigerian forum [hence we're definitely going to have influences from a lot of our local languages, pidgin or broken english inclusive].. two, some people are bound to feel more strongly on issues than others, hence the need to express themselves accordingly.. and thirdly, we being who we are [nigerians] are still trying to acquire the "internet culture".. some habbits will die hard, and others will still take a while to change..

One suggestion, is to create a "rules" book.. which every participant has to abide by.. which will iclude, amongst other rules..

1. politeness being paramount..
2. use of as proper english as possible [within one's abilities.. not everyone has the same level of ability..]
3. no excessiveness or vulgarity..

[more as they come along..]

this is just a suggestion.. maybe some others have similar or contrary thoughts on the matter..


Saint.

The admin is actually right in everything relating to editing the site because he knows the retrictions placed by the greater admin. Seun innit?

But then mr. Admin what are the rules and what steps do you intend to take in actualizing this issue of editing, modifying and upgrading?

It may also enable the people volunteered to be of help know if they can really render the help.

seun,this is brillant and concise, perhaps many of the guys in this forum  need to learn one or two things, it didnt talk about the irritating/mischievious smileys!!!!

Good job Seun, i think a lot of us need to improve our self more instead of knowing what we need to write about firmly before proceeding.
