Netiquette Rule #3: Tell the truth


Honesty is good netiquette because network communications are not valid without it. Be honest in your profiles and other communication because honesty creates the best online experience.

Without truth you have nothing but entertainment. The internet is not legitmate without truth. The internet is not a court of law, so you do not have to tell the whole truth or fill out forms completely, but you do have to be honest for proper netiquette.


An avatar instead of a picture of you is acceptable. I recommend using one for any good reason. Again, personal safety is a good reason or maybe you just like the avatar and want it to represent you. Anonymity is acceptable as long as you are not lying.
