Good manners online
It'a been brought to my attention that some people are feeling replies to comments are becoming increasingly negative and even sinking into personal attacks.
While discussions and disagreement are acceptable, healthy and even welcome, snide comments, nastiness and personal attacks are not.
I'd urge you to read what you type, then think and ask yourself if it would bother you to receive the comment BEFORE you post it. If you wouldn't like it chances are nor would others.
And while popular posts can go off topic (I personally enjoy a good segue) attacking others for it is not a good idea. Argue the topic not the person.
Be polite, friendly, cheeky, even sneaky, but most of all be neighbourly!
Otherwise you may find your profile being blocked, suspended or even deleted as per the terms and conditions we all agreed to.

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
36.5% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.5% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
