A simple “do this, not that” reminder each day. Share one with your team, family, or group chat.

  1. September 3, 2026 Do not cheat
    Cheating wastes other people's time and damages trust in the game.
  2. September 2, 2026 Follow server rules
    Each server or guild may have its own norms, even within the same game.
  3. September 1, 2026 Do not spoil story games
    Use spoiler warnings for plot twists, endings, and hidden content.
  4. August 31, 2026 Respect new players
    Teach the basics or stay quiet. Mocking beginners shrinks the community.
  5. August 30, 2026 Keep trash talk friendly
    Competitive banter should not become harassment or personal abuse.
  6. August 29, 2026 Use voice chat respectfully
    A microphone is not a license to insult, shout, or dominate the channel.
  7. August 28, 2026 Do not rage quit casually
    Leaving a team match without warning can ruin the experience for others.
  8. August 27, 2026 Say GG sincerely
    Good game is best used to show sportsmanship, not sarcasm.
  9. August 26, 2026 Use meeting titles clearly
    A calendar full of vague meetings wastes time before anyone joins.
  10. August 25, 2026 Do not talk over lag
    Video delay can cause accidental interruptions, so leave small pauses.
  11. August 24, 2026 Pause for remote participants
    In hybrid meetings, leave room for people online to speak.
  12. August 23, 2026 Describe visual information
    When sharing a chart or image, summarize what matters for people who cannot see it clearly.
  13. August 22, 2026 Zoom in on tiny text
    If others cannot read your screen, the share is not helping.
  14. August 21, 2026 Keep screen shares tidy
    Close unrelated tabs, notifications, and private windows before sharing.
  15. August 20, 2026 Share slides in advance when possible
    Advance materials help people prepare better questions.
  16. August 19, 2026 Record only with consent
    People should know when a meeting is being recorded and how the recording will be used.
  17. August 18, 2026 End with next steps
    A meeting without owners and deadlines often creates another meeting.
  18. August 17, 2026 Start with the goal
    Clarify whether the meeting is for discussion, decision, review, or status.
  19. August 16, 2026 Invite only needed participants
    A smaller meeting often produces better discussion and less wasted time.
  20. August 15, 2026 Do not multitask visibly
    If you need to focus elsewhere, step away or explain rather than pretending.
  21. August 14, 2026 Use chat for supporting links
    Drop links and references in chat so people do not have to copy them from speech.
  22. August 13, 2026 Look at the agenda before speaking
    Meetings move faster when comments connect to the stated purpose.
  23. August 12, 2026 Choose a respectful background
    Your background should not distract from the conversation or expose private details.
  24. August 11, 2026 Do not shame camera-off participants
    People may have bandwidth, privacy, health, or caregiving reasons.
  25. August 10, 2026 Turn on video when it helps
    Camera use can build connection, but it should match the meeting and culture.
  26. August 9, 2026 Use headphones in noisy spaces
    Headphones reduce echo and make meetings easier for everyone.
  27. August 8, 2026 Mute when not speaking
    Muting prevents typing, pets, traffic, and room noise from taking over.
  28. August 7, 2026 Join video meetings prepared
    Check the agenda, link, camera, and microphone before the meeting starts.
  29. August 6, 2026 Respect edit freezes
    If a document is locked for review or release, do not sneak in changes.
