- RyanMcGreal 13y agoEternal September was in 1993, and the RFC 1855 was written in 1995. It is specifically a response to Eternal September: "Today, the community of Internet users includes people who are new to the environment. These 'Newbies' are unfamiliar with the culture and don't need to know about transport and protocols. In order to bring these new users into the Internet culture quickly, this Guide offers a minimum set of behaviors which organizations and individuals may take and adapt for their own use."
- username42 13y agoI have learned the netiqette rules in 1990 when I learned about internet. The RFC has gathered rules that were created before.

- username42 13y ago3 points by the way, if you read the rfc, you will see that many references are before 1993.
