KIDLINK is a global community, and users are expected to conduct themselves accordingly. Specific guidelines are listed here. The intent is that users will observe the norms of social interaction, which includes respect for other people and their views.

Be Polite

Conduct yourself as a polite person would in real life. Remember customs may be different than the customs that are used in your environment. Also Remember that the people you are typing to are real people with real feelings and they may not be using their native language. Be careful what you say, so that someone who is not speaking their native language will not missunderstand you. Be aware of the sensitivity of others. Inappropriate language is not allowed. This includes cussing (for example the S-word and F-word) and people writing strange characters as $|%!#!#@.

Be kind

If you are late answering, tell why and ask for understanding. 

If You Encounter a Problem

If someone bothers you by eg kidmail or kidchat, you may want to stop talking with that person and/or contact the Management Team with a message to  abuse@kidlink.org or simply open the abuse form at http://www.kidlink.org/contact/abuse
