netizen

As defined by Michael Hauben, author of the book, Netizens:

"...people who care about Usenet and the bigger Net and work towards building the cooperative and collective nature which benefits the larger world."

"...people who work towards developing the Net."

You are a Netizen if you contribute to the online community in a positive fashion, allowing the community to grow.

Tom is the epitomy of a Netizen, he spends all his free time in those tech support forums answering people's questions about computers.

I was invited to chat with other gamers by a netizen but decline due to lack of definite time.
