• Participants should not spam AoA (see definition of spam)
• In the event that they come across a user spamming they are to report it to a moderator as soon as one becomes available
• Must be available in #AoA IRC channel in Moznet when replying to the tweets.

What is considered as spam?

• Replies that are not related to the user's concern
• Sending irrelevant tweets and posts ##Insert an Example here. ##
• Replies when somebody has already posted a relevant reply

Despite the word spam being derived from a Monty Python's sketch, spamming is frowned upon and it could lead to a ban.

Work flow

• Select Unanswered from drop down list, if not selected already. ##pic##
• Reply only to tweets that require support. ##Insert an Example here. ##
• Do not reply to tweets mentioning @firefox or @mozilla (Social Media team is running these accounts. They will respond to those tweets.)
• Check if the user who is tweeting is a member of Mozillians (staff or Volunteer) on their bio in their twitter profile.
• Remove irrelevant tweets using the remove button.

(If the button is not visible, ensure that you are signed in and force refresh the page)
