Hijacking another people's thread
We see this all the time, taking over the discussion or even worse, deviating from the subject. Honestly, that isn\'t very polite.
Being a know-it-all
Sounds familiar? You soon end up with a bad reputation and nobody will engage with you anymore.
Stay safe
Common sense should take over. Never ever share your or other people\'s details online.
So there you have it.
There is something to be said about online etiquette. Better leading by example and being a valuable source of information. Great feedback on your contribution will help undoubtedly encourage you to do more, and also set you apart from the usual online noise and clutter.
