(Look famalier 
.I got this from the Midnight Board/Spazzie)
Besides the TOS, there are a few other rules of etiquette that are a good idea to follow.
¤Try to avoid talking in all ToGgLe or Netspeak. Wut iz netspeek, u azk? <--- There's an example. ToGgLe iS jUsT aS BaD. Both can put a strain on the eyes, and they just make the post diffucult to read.
¤Personal attacks violate the Terms of Service. Even so, there are times when people aren't being very respectful. Try to see other people's opinions before jumping all over them. They (Gasp!) might actually have something good to say. Keep your debates friendly.
¤Fluff! Don't just post "LOL" if you think something's funny. The same goes for "^^^I agree!" Try to have something useful to add to the post. Don't get too hung up on this, it's just something to be aware of. Remember, there's a Modify and Delete button on each and every one of your posts. If there's something you forgot to add before, or want to change, you can fix it, with no time limit.
,Don't post anything in ALL CAPS.

Glow is nice to add to an occasional post, but overdoing it is not.
6. Unreadable Colors
Colored posts are attracticve, but make sure it's readable first.
7.
Yes, it's groovy to see words move across the page, but not many users have the patience to wait for the post to come around whilst reading it. Signatures in Marquee are cool, but posts aren't.
INewbies, don't think you'll be hated if you happen to carry out any of the mentioned. We'd just prefer it if you didn't.
I thought this would be helpful. If anyone has anything to add to this, please do so!
