 +  * Do not use an @everyone unless you are a coalition exec, an FC pinging a stratop, CTA, or other important fleet, or you have a very good reason to believe that it is time sensitive inforamtion that needs to be acted on right away.  Note that with this command, you are often pinging people's phones.

 +  * If you find yourself in a debate a group of people, stop typing if you are getting angry or if the same arguments are being repeated over and over, personal insults are being used, it goes off-topic, or if it is just gone on for some length of time.  If a critical issue that needs a resolution, take to diplos.  
 +  * Remember that friendly banter and jokes are fun -- but can easily be misinterpreted in a multi-cultural, multi-language situation.  If the conversation turns unfriendly, stop and check that jokes were heard as jokes, banter understood as banter, and that words and phrases were understood the same by both parties.
