As I’ve mentioned before, we have a language-learning community on Teams called ‘Chatting in Chinese and English’.
We chat with each other in both English and Chinese in Teams meetings on weekends.
There have been several misunderstandings regarding timing recently, so I would like to establish some community rules for us to follow.
Here are some suggestions:
- Before 8 p.m. on Thursday, Beijing time, post a message to confirm the meeting time. If no one posts a message to confirm the meeting, or if nobody else responds to the message within 24 hours confirming that they plan to attend the weekend meeting, then the meeting is cancelled.
- When confirming the meeting time, feel free to mention the topics you’d like to discuss.
- Respect the language proficiency and cultural background of each member, and do not ridicule, discriminate against, or engage in personal attacks against others.
- Please avoid sensitive topics such as politics or religion, and be respectful of personal privacy.
Do you have any more suggestions? Feel free to let me know.
Thanks in advance!
