Often we forget how important it is to mind our manners in online chat rooms. The same thing happens in WoW chat room as well seeing that most WOW players don’t even bother to type properly and politely.

Even though in virtual chat rooms, no one is seeing you on the other side, but manner is a main element in chat rooms especially when WoW is an international online game, not only in US or EU.

The problem that occurs when you are not polite and the typing is all wrong:

  1. You offend other people. Seriously it is easy to offend and annoy people in chat room (example: plz…, plzzz, thx, ur).
  2. Miscommunications in chat rooms.
  3. If you ask a question, no one bothers to answer because you type in a ‘language’ that no one understands (example: any1 4 utgrd kp).

How to avoid these problems:

  1. Please type properly.
    It is easy, you just need to keep in mind that people love to read ‘please’ rather than ‘plz’.
  2. Say thank you.
    Is it so difficult to thank people after someone helps you out?
  3. Only one ? is needed.
    This is common sense, do you like to see me asking you like this????????? When you ask a question, make sure you only use one question mark at the end.

I know you care more about playing rather than these small details but take note the next time you enter the chat room. You might just leave the moment you enter the room seeing all these impolite people chatting away in the most unproper ways.
