Forum use:
Forums are not an appropriate place to send personal messages. Please use internal messaging and emails for this purpose.
Before posting a topic, forum participants should take the time to read messages that have previously been sent by other users, to avoid repeating topics. In the same way, they must differentiate between replying to a previously published message and publishing a message that raises a new topic for discussion. If there is a twist to the topic, the title of the discussion should be changed.
Internal messaging and emails:
Internal messaging and emails are a direct means of communication with other users of the platform and other portal services. Out of respect for the target users over time, these forms of communication should be used sparingly. Messages should be concise and spelling correct if possible.
The title of the email message should indicate the topic to be covered. This makes it easier to catalog, prioritize, and read mail.
Messages instantly arrive at the destination, but this does not mean that the recipient can reply immediately, therefore, a reasonable time must be given for the reply before forwarding or making a new request.
