Netiquette

- Once you have joined the Slack workspace, feel free to ask any DOMjudge-related - questions you might have. Please do note that it may sometimes take a bit longer - than a few minutes to get a response, partly because people might be in different timezones. -

+ Once you have joined the Slack workspace, feel free to ask any + DOMjudge-related questions you might have. Please do take some + common internet etiquette in consideration: +

+

+
Don't demand (quick) answers
+
+ We're all volunteers doing this in our free time. Although we + do our best to respond to questions, people may not always be + available due to timezone differences or simply other reasons. +
+ +
Ask questions in public channels
+
+ Do not ask questions privately, unless you're invited to or + you know that that person knows the answer and this is not + relevant to others. +
+ +
Provide clear details
+
+ When you run into a problem or error, provide as detailed as + possible how you got there and any exact errors you got. The + more details you provide, the better and quicker we can help. +
+ +
Prefer text over screenshots
+
+ When possible, copy\&paste error messages, configuration + data, etc. as code quoted text instead of + screenshots. This makes it easier to read on any device and + copy&paste. +
