Linux Forums Etiquette
This is a really good article on etiquette to use on Linux forums, for everyone that wish to post on them, the original article was written by Megatotoro and published on http://linuxmigrante.blogspot.it As a relatively new migrant to Tuxland, I’ve come to learn that Linux forums are a rich source of advice, useful information and help. They have also let me find wonderful people. Some of them are very knowledgeable of the penguin’s intricacies and others are not so seasoned, but their will to help is indeed contagious. However, some people have had negative experiences when entering a Linux forum and asking for help. These disgruntled new migrants get a bitter flavor of Linux and a number of them leave and never return.
