<h3>Netiquette</h3>
<p>
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.
</p>
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:
<p>
<dl>
<dt>Don't demand (quick) answers</dt>
<dd>
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.
</dd>

<dt>Ask questions in public channels</dt>
<dd>
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.
</dd>

<dt>Provide clear details</dt>
<dd>
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.
</dd>

<dt>Prefer text over screenshots</dt>
<dd>
When possible, copy\&amp;paste error messages, configuration
data, etc. as <code>code quoted text</code> instead of
screenshots. This makes it easier to read on any device and
copy&amp;paste.
</dd>
</ul>
