| ==General Principles==
| |
| Deborah Johnson pointed out that the only hope for behaviour online is when participants internalise norms of behaviour, but she did give 3 rules that can help guide participants' behaviour and hence the development of norms.
| |
| | |
| "On-line ethics would seem to call for the following three general rules.
| |
| | |
| 1. Know the rules of the forums in which you communicate and follow them.
| |
| | |
| 2. Respect the privacy and property rights of others. When in doubt assume the user wants privacy and ownership.
| |
| | |
| 3. Respect the individuals with whom you communicate and those who are affected by your communication; that is, do not deceive, defame, or harass."

| ==Advertising==
| |
| | |
| *It is not allowed to put all-out advertisements (Moodle or otherwise) in Moodle.org content, such as forum posts. The only exceptions are the Partner blocks and the books etc. on the front page.
| |
| *There is no restriction on anyone mentioning their services in the forums if it's a natural part of discussion.
