The Lack of the Ack, Sixteen Years On

In February of 2010, I wrote about a small but symptomatic failure in our digital manners. Young people, then aged eighteen to twenty, would send you a message, receive your reply, and disappear. No acknowledgement, no "Ok," no "Got it," just the digital equivalent of someone slamming the door after asking you a question through the mail slot. The piece was called "How to Ack Back," and the argument was that the etiquette of the early internet, the discipline of acknowledging every transmission, had been lost on a generation that grew up assuming delivery was guaranteed and silence was a defensible reply.

Yes, we🇸🇬 need campaigns to remind us how to behave
"Campaigns . aren't abt stating te obvious, but abt reinforcing social norms. A simple, repeated message can act as a gentle nudge.. True graciousness must be supported by #social #culture. When commuters model considerate behaviour, it encourages others.. shapes a self-sustaining #norm where #courtesy becomes natural iso instructed. In tis sense, campaigns remind the mind, while culture shapes the heart"

A quotation from Kerry Greenwood

   “Conversation is a minefield until you learn the conventions, Jane dear.”
   “I’ll never learn all the rules,” muttered Jane.
   “Yes, you will,” said Phryne. “Then you can bend them.”

Kerry Greenwood (b. 1954) Australian author and lawyer
Phryne Fisher No. 13, The Castlemaine Murders, ch. 4 (2003)
