What are some of the rules about the Internet that were taught to you but are now completely ignored?

For me, it was that the Internet never forgets and that you should never enter your real name. In my opinion, both of these rules are now completely ignored.

That’s crazy. Makes a lot of sense.

I always tried to be the “shockingly nice person to game with” whenever I could. It was a lot more fun than just being mean to people for no reason.

I never understood that impulse to scream epithets over xbox live or whatever.
