Digital Netiquette

Digital Code of Conduct

There are a few rules that one should follow in the digital world, especially in a business. Employers as well as employees should follow and apply a few netiquette rules. Such as

1.     Make sure that your spelling and grammar is correct. This way people will take you seriously and professional. With incorrect grammar, it would reflect poorly and you and the message you are trying to get through.

2.     Write concisely, do not go on about unnecessary things and get to the point you are trying to get across in your message.

3.     Proofread the message, you do not want to send the message with errors therefore always make sure you re-read and double check what you are about to send.

4.     Always use the correct tone, using words in the wrong way could leave a bad impression. In this case when you send a message, the receiver is not able to read your body language or hear the way you say certain things, therefore check the tone the way you have said things.

5.     Internet messages are permanent, so make sure you don’t say something that you will end up regretting.

6.     Respect, be polite and friendly to people.

7.     Stay professional, do not let personal issues get in the way of your work.

8.     Respect other people’s privacy.

9.     Don’t abuse the power you have online or on social media.

10. Be well behaved as you would be in reality.

The penalties that could apply to not adhering to these rules would be a fine that needs to be paid and a warning.

I would like to enforce this In my business by speaking to my employees and having an agreement as well as signing a contract stating that they understand and will abide by the rules set to them. They must know the consequences of these rules and make sure that they don’t break the rules.

Clash of Clans

Clash of Clans

I had a really good experience playing this game as it had shown me how to think and I adopted strategy skills during the game which was a challenging experience but really put my thinking into gear.

Clash of clans is a game that is played by many people and has a lot of participants/is a multiplayer game, where players have troops that they must train and build a community as well as attack the other players and their troops for gold. You must build to defend yourself from getting attacked by other players. The troops are Tier 1,2,3 and Dark Elixir troops and heroes.

Tier 1- The goblins, barbarians, and archers.

Tier 2- The Wizards, wall breakers and giants.

Tier 3- The P.E.K.K.A’s, dragons and healers.

Dark Elixir- The minions, witches, lava hounds, hog riders, valkries etc.

Heroes- The barbarian King and the archer Queen. They are immortal.

To win gold, the player must build a mine and store places and elixir collectors. The gold is used to upgrade and build the defense mechanisms which also enhance things to upgrade. You also need to upgrade and renovate the hall so that you can reach higher levels. Then you want to earn the dark elixir so that you can upgrade and train your troops. There are bombs and troops to protect the community.

The clan is a group of players that work together to defeat the other clans and get stars according to the amount of damage they have caused. Gems are the currency and these gems could speed up the game.

This game could educate a young person, by teaching them to think fast as well as strategize on how to build your camp, it is also a great way to interact with different types of people and also gives an opportunity to work as teams. This will help children have an active mind and also give them a challenge.
