1. Don't Netspeak:
Quote:OMG!1! i saw johny dep @ teh mall tdy and he sad hi to me & askd me to mry him...my bff Jil saw it hppn if u dont beleive me...

Netspeak refers to abbreviations (e.g., LOL, OMG, LMAO), misspellings, and a loose regard for punctuation. Abbreviations are usually acceptable so long as you use only one per paragraph. Nothing says newbie more than Netspeak. Sure, some Web sites thrive on Netspeak, but you can't go wrong writing in plain English. You'll be understood, and you don't risk getting mauled by a grammar nazi.



2. Be Courteous
Remember that there is a human being on the other side of the screen, too. They deserve to be treated with respect and courtesy, just as you would like to be treated. Moreover, everything you do online is on record and can haunt you for years to come.
They say the Internet never forgets. If you are smart, you will use this in your favor! Respect standard etiquette, follow the rules, help newbies, become an expert for a specific topic, and generously share your knowledge.



3. Avoid all caps: HEY GUYS, WHAT'S GOING ON IN THIS THREAD?
This tip is self-explanatory. If you don't know already, using all caps is considered shouting. Most people use caps as a way to standout in the thread comments. However, using all caps actually makes it harder to read your comment, and the only attention you'll receive is from forum members berating you and telling you that you're shouting.



4. Split up your text.
While forum members probably won't comment on splitting up your text, it's still something that will improve your post's readability. Dividing your sentences into paragraphs (three to four sentences per paragraph is a good number) ensures that people won't strain their eyes trying to read your post.



5. Don't spam:
Quote:Thanks
or
Quote:This is great

People hate spammers. You hate spammers. But if you're new to a forum, posting posts containing thanks only will be considered spam. Your post will be deleted.



6. Don't be an echo, rather press the Thanks button:
Quote:I agree.
This tip mostly applies to forums that keep post counts next to your screen name. Forum members will think that you're just trying to boost your numbers if you post only a two-word comment. On other types of forums it may not matter as much. Still, people generally like to hear your full opinion instead of a simple "I agree" or "I disagree."



7. Use the search engine.
Before you create a thread/topic in the forum, check out the forum's search function to see if a similar thread has already been posted. At the very least, scan the first page of topics to see if your idea has already been discussed. If you don't find anything recent, then post away.



8. Don't be afraid of the regulars: Hi, I'm new. Please don't hurt me.
At the other end of the scale, sometimes new people are overly obsequious. You don't have to be timid. Follow tip number 9, and you'll become more confident that what you're posting is valuable, and that it's not necessary to load your posts with a bunch of qualifiers.



9. Lurk before you post.
Each forum has its own culture and nuances. Maybe using Netspeak is the norm and typing in plain English is conspicuous. Maybe you should be rude and load your posts with swears. Read a few threads before you post. Some people will read forums for weeks or even months before they contribute. While that may be overdoing it, you should at least get a handle on the personality of the forum.

Today I found myself deleting an old post where one of our great user reported member having avatar showing child as from mother born. The avatar was removed and user was guided.

Our children are our most valuable asset. They represent the bright future of ours and hold our hopes for a better nation. Our children are the most vulnerable members of society. I know some of you are putting the pictures of your children to be your avatar because you love them and you'd like to world see the treasure you have, but not every man in this world shares the same opinion as you do. Protect your children and don't share their picture in public.

Please don't let yours and ours children photographs get into the hands of dangerous child sexual predators or computer-sex offenders.

If you have at this moment your avatar showing picture of a child, please change it into something showing e.g. brick, house, bridge, cartoon character, etc.

If you saw a member of CivilEA having child photograph as avatar, please make a report to us and we'll do our best to guide or warn this member and to remove this photograph by any means.

Dear CivilEA users,

It's my pleasure to introduce the first manual for this wonderful place called CivilEA. Every single member of the Forum Team is meritorious and creditable for making this manual. We all put a lot of time to make this came true.

If you find any kind of mistakes, misunderstandings, faults or spelling mistakes - you are always free to contact us via PM or Profile Comments or by making post to this thread (just please, do not make posts containing only sentences like "Thanks" or "Not useful" or something similar - make whole sentences, give us your suggestions or start discussions)

There is not much to say about this Manual. There you can expect some useful hints and help on how to make good posts, how to use Post Generator, what is the meaning of the warning points and how to avoid getting warning points. Manual is going to be redesigned and improved and it will be done as soon as we find some spare time - your suggestions to 2nd Edition (that will be made) are always welcome.

I will explain one more time. This site is an engineering site for civil and structural engineers. If you have something new related to our profession, post and you are welcome. New mean not a duplicate of existing material in forum (search and verify before), posted in the right section and according to our rules. If you want to ask or need help for a professional problem, post and again in the right section and after checking if the answer is not already in forum. If you can answer to a question or help someone, post. Don’t post opinions about something but facts. Sentences like: I think is a very good book, software, i love it, are spam in this forum. If you are satisfied and want to thank someone press the thanks button. If no one from above, take what you need and again we will be happy if you press thanks, but don’t use our site to write nonsense and useless sentences. Always use preview and don't press Post Thread until your post is what you want. We want engineering related posts and for example the Non Engineering Software is not for copying every thing from general sharing sites. We all know how to use Google and if not please learn. Non engineering mean utilities for engineers like archivers, PDF utilities, image viewers and converters, etc.
If you feel lonely, bored or you want to write about something else don’t post, you are in the wrong place and you will be warned. If you don’t like our rules don’t enter the site.
This site is owned by Administrator and he pays with his money the hardware, the software and he works hard to maintain the site alive.
Most of the posts are from a small group of users and the moderators are not only the top posters but they works many hours every day to maintain the level of this site.
This is not a parliament as some revolutionary users think and who don’t like our rules is free to not use the site.
I can understand the enthusiasm of some young engineers or students running to post before understanding where they are, I can understand many of our users familiar with the chaos in other engineering sites but I can’t understand users continuing to make mistakes after warnings and Private Messages.
An engineer must at least to know reading and an engineer like the three monkeys (don’t heard, don’t see, don’t talk) will kill someone when his structure will collapse.
Some screenshots for newbies and old users without patience to read and understand and continuing to make faults.
In the first row of the main page you can see some titles.
(See screenshot 1)
The relevant for remaining in forum and to not receive warnings are:
HELP (see screenshot 2)
If you will read and understand many things will be easier when posting.
SEARCH (see screenshot 3)
Using in an intelligent way the search will help you to find what you want and to find existing thread for not duplicating posts.
If you want to post software or a book you must (MUST) use the post generator and our image host.
See screenshots 4 and 5
Looking at every post you can see (this is an example only):
See screenshot 6
The number of post of this user and the threads he posted in, when the user joined the forum, the Warning Level and so on.
The most important, pressing the digits near the Warning Level you can see for which reason and who (moderator) warn you.
(See screenshot 7)
The warning will expire after a week or a month but if you have at least 50% your posts will be moderated for a week and you will see them on a pink background. Don’t post more until your warning rate will be less than 50%.
When a user reach the 100% warning rate he will be banned for a while (usually 10 days but the moderators can ban for ever).
See screenshot 7
Please pay attention to a few things when you look at your profile (pressing your name):
See screenshot 8
Not only the statistics but again you can check many details and the warning level.
One of the most important things, check if your Private Message is enabled. We don't need your email but we don't like users with PM disabled.
If you don’t see your post, it was deleted by moderators for a reason so don’t repeat posting one more time the same. We will delete any post as "I will upload soon...", "I wiil search in my ... and if i will found...". Our policy is very simple. If you want to shoot, shoot don't talk.
If you want something and other user ask before wait at least a month before asking one more time. If you want to communicate with someone and if is not related with the thread use the Private Message.
We warn for transparent links, duplicate posts (including duplicate request), posting in wrong section, for not using the post generator and the image host and of course for spam. Users replying without reason a lot of other‘s text (quoting) fill our forum with garbage. I can’t believe in your real life (and everyday work) you repeat every phrase of your interlocutor before answering.
Repeating the same will be warned with more points and users repeating faults too much times will be banned.
Don't post in foreign languages (only English), don't fill with quoted text without reason and don't post insulting words. I recommend you to not argue with the moderators and don't try to punish them if you are disappointed.

If you don’t see your post, it was deleted by moderators for a reason so don’t repeat posting one more time the same. We will delete any post as "I will upload soon...", "I wiil search in my ... and if i will found...". Our policy is very simple. If you want to shoot, shoot don't talk.
If you want something and other user ask before wait at least a month before asking one more time. If you want to communicate with someone and if is not related with the thread use the Private Message.
We warn for transparent links, duplicate posts (including duplicate request), posting in wrong section, for not using the post generator and the image host and of course for spam. Users replying without reason a lot of other‘s text (quoting) fill our forum with garbage. I can’t believe in your real life (and everyday work) you repeat every phrase of your interlocutor before answering.
Repeating the same will be warned with more points and users repeating faults too much times will be banned.
Don't post in foreign languages (only English), don't fill with quoted text without reason and don't post insulting words. I recommend you to not argue with the moderators and don't try to punish them if you are disappointed.

I believe all of you will agree with me that civilea is a great place for all of you, the civil engineers to be. Here i would like to make a pledge to you to make this place 'safe'. All of us have heard that web closed down due to the some infringement.

Stop posting 'transparent' links here. I do not know for sure but ppl who has better knowledge has been telling that this will expose to search engines and that won't be very good in long run.

Softwares are especially sensitive.

Just like the way struceng sign off, the softwares here are not free. if u like it, get licensed. Verongskey has asked you to learn from them then get a license.

Pls do not put unnecessary exposure on us. If u choose to share it at your workplace, keep it low profile. My point is if you happen to know someone in the software company, do not in any position put us in the picture. If civilea is endangered, nobody benefits from it.]]>
