8. The Problem with AcronymsMany people use acronyms. There is no problem with that when you’re talking to your friend or someone close to you.Sometimes, it can be impolite to use acronyms when talking to adults or parents because they don’t usually understand what they mean and find it quite annoying. That is because they dot know what the letters stand for.

9. Faces/EmotionsThere are so many different emotions that are being used today, some people may like to call it ‘smiley faces’. But, when you use the keystrokes, its hard to understand. For example:-These are keystrokes: (: - ):These are their emotions:  - 

10. Good Digital Etiquette & ExamplesGood Digital Etiquette must be done by everyone. For example, When someone has done something and you don’t agree/like their idea, instead of commenting and posting mean comments, it is better not to say anything. If you would like to give them advice on how to improve it or change it, suggest different ideas and ways and also try to be as polite as possible.

11. Avoid writing a sentence or something in ‘caps lock’ because it can be considered as yelling.If you want to put something on the internet, ask permission from the people with you or your friends. For example, if it’s a picture of you and your friends ask them if they don’t mind their picture being on the internet for others to see.

12. Cyber BullyingCyber bullying is common and used a lot in the internet these days.Cyber bullying is when you bully other people in the internet.It is when you post rude comments about other people or make fun of them or post an embarrassing picture of them without getting their permission.

13. Bad Digital Etiquette & ExamplesBad Digital Etiquette can be an example of something I have just talked about, Cyber Bullying. Another example of Bad Digital Etiquette is acronyms. As I have said, it can annoy people and adults.Bad Digital Etiquette is when:You disagree with someone’s idea by being rude.You call people mean names.

14. You yell at people for a stupid reason or constantly using acronyms and caps locks.You tell someone that their idea of something is stupid instead of advising them or helping them.

15. How to deal with Cyber bullyingTrying to stop people who are being cyber-bullied is very important.Talk to them slowly and try to sort things out.If that doesn’t work, try ignoring them.Talk to someone responsible.
