KICTANetiquette : Adhere to the same standards of acceptable behaviors online that you follow in real life: respect people's times and bandwidth, share knowledge, don't flame or abuse or personalize, respect privacy, do not spam, do not market your wares or qualifications.
This is a good step. Although it might need more enhancement: reporting crime and incidents should be very simple and seamless. Think Twitter, Facebook, sms. NB: Not all crime reporting need to be anonymous On 19/12/2013, Bernard Kioko <bkioko@bernsoft.com> wrote:
