Does Twitter Have Rules? Absolutely They Do!

Twitter is such a wide open forum that many people believe they have no rules. They do, both written and unwritten. This video describes some of the unwritten Twitter rules.

  1. Right now I am not much of a Twitterer but your suggestions are good for any social media sites. I was really interested in your point of looking at my account. Since I don’t go on Twitter very much I realize that I should go and see what people are saying in case things that are being said are not part of my value system.

    I block people who swear or use the N word instantly…

    I use twitter a little bit… But I guess I would have said those were ‘understood’ rules.. ( although the #3 that you listed is not totally clear in my mind either.) Thanks for the tips and heads up. I will do some checking up on my twitter and see whats going on.

  4. Thanks Carla for these tips I di not know twitter had rules as I use twitter not as much as fb r LI.
    Tweeting too much was a rule I had not thought of, you are so right!
    I have to say I was quite disappointed when I found out I had spam on my twitter account, is there a way to avoid this?

  5. Hello Carla,
    many people don’t realize that there are rules as well as etiquette.
    the unspoken rules are the best part of your video:
    1.Language (and how you use it)
    2.Being Insulting(be nice!)
    3.making alienating comments(keep being nice!)
    4.tweeting too much! (I am on the other end of the tweet spectrum!)
    I tweet very inconsistently at the moment.
    Thanks again for this great reminder.
    Respectfully,
    Jay
