Etiquette

Etiquette tips while using the forum:

• Avoid using ALL CAPS because viewers will perceive your post as angry or hostile and you may get fewer responses.
• Write in full sentences and avoid abbreviations whenever possible.
• Be friendly and courteous in your posts and reply.
• Do not use foul or abusive language; your post will be deleted if you do.
• Describe your question carefully and clearly; be as precise as possible.
• Demonstrate your knowledge. Your questions and answers should reflect the research you have already done.
• State your programming language where applicable.
• Stick to the facts.
• Describe the goal first. Be articulate about what you are trying to accomplish before you describe how you or your team is going about accomplishing goal.
• Remember that for Jr.FLL, your team is supposed to create the model and poster. Therefore, it’s probably not a good idea to ask for help on a specific idea because people may be reluctant to share their team's specific building plans. You can, however, ask questions about instruction interpretation or share general strategy.
• Don’t forget to follow up on your question. Did someone help you find the answer you were looking for? Great. You will definitely want to thank people for their help.
