  • No spamming reactions - Do not apply mass reactions to a message
  • No "ghosting", or posting messages then deleting them after - Mass removal of messages for the purpose of breaking a conversation log or appearing to "not exist" is extremely annoying and causes confusion. Be mature, if you say something, leave it there rather than irritating everyone.
  • Don't change the channels rapidly, it gets really annoying.
