simple rules for communication in this site! the situation that makes me wonder is that most of the people don`t know how to start a conversation. for example in this site, some one sent me a message and said something as: hey! tell me something personal about yourself! what the f..!?! please start with : hey! hi! how are you! introduce your self before asking others to introduce themselves! be polite! don`t ask about height and weight! ( for god sake it`s not a dating site) don`t follow half of earth population, talk with people and just follow the one who u like and can have a talk with! and u know block every one who u feel is bothering you! have avery nice time!

Ssimple rules for communication in on this site!

the situation that makes me wonder is that most of the people don`t know how to start a conversation.

I often wonder why people do not know how to start a conversation on this site.

for example in this site, A while ago someone another member sent me a message and  just said something as: Hey hey! tell me something personal about yourself!
what the f..!?!
Pplease start with :
Hey! how are you? 
Give a brief introduction about on yourself(like your reasons for joining this site...)before asking others to introduce themselves!
Bbe polite! don`t ask about height and weight!   any personal questions (for god sake it`s not a dating site)
don`t follow half of the Earth's earth population, talk with people and just follow the one whom u you like and can have a talk (chat instead of talk here)  decent coversation with!
and u know
block every one  anyone who u feel is bothering you!
have avery nice  lovely time!

well, lemme tell u sth, that's exactly bcz of what u just mentioned that i can't find a lot of friends around here. I'm always worrying over whether my message is appropriate or not, i'm afraid my adressees might get me wrong and and not answer me back, while all i want is simply a language partner...

I just delete their messages immediately. There are too many wonderful people on italki for me to bother with someone who sends a message like that.

Well said! I like your post very much!

Just have people to ask themselves what they normally talk about in daily life. Hopefully it is more than the color of their favorite car.
