Netiquette

As a Youthreporter you tell others about your adventures in foreign countries or international groups. To ensure that everyone on youthreporter.eu gets along, there's a set of rules that have to be followed. These are known as netiquette. Netiquette is a clear source of guidance for your activities on the site and helps to avoid misunderstandings and conflicts. Fair play, a helpful attitude and honesty are prerequisites for getting along as Europeans, but also as Youthreporters, interview partners and editors.

  • is xenophobic,
  • fascist,
  • pornographic,
  • sexist,
  • or capable of corrupting young people,
  • glorifies violence,
  • is defamatory,
  • slanderous,
  • deliberately wrong,
  • or in any way discriminatory
  • or illegal.
