sal_vager Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Unveiled this morning to a riotous fanfair of one or two bypassers, the Kerbal Space Program forum now has a guide to forum etiquette, which can be found here.The more astute among you may recognize bits from the Mozilla guide to etiquette, and I will not deny that it was an inspiration, and after some painful rewrites, writers block and various suggestions of Moar Boosters from the Moderation team, it\'s now in the wild for you guys to pick apart The idea behind this is to provide some basic instructions and guidelines as to good forum conduct, both for existing members and the new guys, and rather than being rules, these are things we\'d all like to see, these are not enforced but the existing forum rules still stand.So what do you think? Suggestions for improvement are welcome and these guidelines should be kept in mind by all members to help keep the forums running smoothly, but also, if a member does not know good forum conduct they should be directed here or just gently reminded about the relevant part of the Guide instead of being jumped on for doing something wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephram Kerman Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Very nice. I always prefer to see the 'do this' version instead of the 'don\'t do that'. Positive reinforcement helps to set the tone for the community.Just a couple of questions, if I may:...for each person you wish to reply to, quote them individually in your post, and address each in turn.Could the guide mention the 'Insert Quote' link is available while writing your post? This makes it easy to individually quote multiple people from a thread....the dreaded “Wall of textâ€, as you will often find your point is ignored by the TL-DR crowd.What is TL-DR?
