-Keep your posts relatively short if you expect many people to read them.

-The TL community is about growing, and is not your average game forum. If someone doesn't agree with you, or make an obviously flawed statement (like saying there are 300 gm spots instead of 200 in a region), there's no reason to flame all over them. (LOL DO YOU EVEN PLAY?) Likewise, admit to your faults. A simple "my bad, you may be right" does great things.

If you can take what you just wrote and say it in front of InControl without flinching, then go ahead and post it.

Don't shamelessly self-promote your Twitter/YouTube/other projects if you haven't contributed to this community first. Invest in TL before you start promoting yourself.

Basically, don't be this guy until you've invested your time and efforts into helping TL.

If you're going to post, be sure it's worthwile for others to read. That means: contribute to the discussion in a meaningful way, make jokes that are actually funny, use proper English as best as you can, behave like a friendly and reasonable person, don't call people names, don't have a negative attitude to other people's contributions or achievements, be helpful, don't post one-liners when possible...
In very broad terms: put some effort into your posts and be a nice guy.

Just show respect to other people.

I would expect newbies to not post as well and have some closed threads or fail in searching at the start. Even though it may be a little annoying to forum regulars, I think that's fine as they can slowly improve after a few threads get closed. I feel the most important thing is to just post politely to other people.

This is one of the things I have the most trouble with online.

Guess I just need to keep it in mind more consciously. Sometimes I'll be less-than-polite to someone on the internet, but then meet them IRL and realize they're just another normal person and I wouldn't dream of being anything but nice.

It's always a little awkward at events when people walk up like "Hey you're orb, you banned me from your stream chat and called me a retard." Lollllllllllll

Really try and think about your post before you click that button. Does it add something to the discussion, or is it useless spam?
