+### Is there any kind of Matrix etiquette I should know about?
+
+Not particularly, you will find the same kind of social expectations like
+anywhere else, such as at IRC or Telegram. Here are some guidelines:
+
+- Ask for a permission in room before starting a private/direct message/discussion with someone.
+  - There is commonly an exception when you are contacting a moderator of about an issue in
+    the chat and wish to avoid getting attention on yourself.
+- When you eventually do message someone, state your business, without leaving
+  your first message to a greeting. For more information about this, refer to
+  [nohello.net](https://nohello.net/).
+- When creating a new room, avoid advertising it in existing rooms. The
+  first guideline also applies, refrain from inviting random people from
+  other rooms without their permission.
+  - If you do perform mass inviting of strangers, you will be considered as a
+    spammer and most likely end up on shared banlists resulting a significant
+    portition of Matrix communities instantly banning you even if you never
+    interacted with them directly.
+
 ### How do you do custom not-emoji reactions?
 
 They are implemented by multiple clients other than Element. In FluffyChat, Gomuks and Nheko you can reply to something with `/react something` to add a `something` reaction. In Hydrogen there is a `...` next to emojis allowing you to enter freeform text as a reaction. In Schildichat Android when you search for a reaction, it offers to send your search as a freeform-reaction.
