Hello. Yesterday, we talked about the Chat Box. Things have been getting too out of hand. Insults, Arguments are being thrown out all the time. So the team decided to start having "Chat Box Moderators" Zeonix and I decided to step up. We do not have forum moderation abilities, but we do have chat box abilities. See, it's quite simple to understand. You basically follow the same forum rules, you don't insult each other, and you don't start arguments. If you decide to tell people to shut the **** up, you're not going to get a pat on the head and get a friendly warning. You'll get a warning, no excuses, no exceptions. When we tell you to stop arguing, listen. If you don't, then I'm sure you know what's going to happen. Also, please, do not spam the Chat Box. Don't like it? Those rules too harsh? I apologize, but this is the way it's going to go down, starting now.

...and he's a humble, down-to-earth fellow, too! =P

All jokes aside, I wish Dam and any further chat box mods the best of luck in sorting through the rather large influx of messages that'll be coming their way. I suppose I should be keeping my eye out for the very same issues, too... because I aim to be responsible.

Rules for now are pretty simple. Same as forum rules, no flaming or linking to porn, etc...
Off topicness and such don't really matter in a real time chat though.

Yes. We planned on making a topic when Skyrider officially gave us access.
Yea but the topic should be "The chatbox now has people moderating it"

You forgot to also mention that every normall moderator can allso moderate it. And that people can get a chatbox ban >.<


Just wondering. Did you ever write a news post before?

Why do people take the Shoutbox so seriously?

It's a Shoutbox, it's completely spam in itself.

It appears we have to take it seriously when people start telling each other to shut the **** up, and start arguments every hour. Select people like to ruin the fun.

The current rules (as it has been added over a week ago)

All forum rules also applies to this chat box. This how ever, does not effect the advertisement rules related to news posts, youtube links, mod links, and so on. You are not welcome to post warez links or use any kind of annoying text such as unreadable text or extreme bright colors.

Best decision ever made on these forums.

The hell does "don't spam the chatbox" even mean?

It means don't copy and paste walls of text from random websites and throw youtube link after youtube link at us. It's annoying and its unnecessary.

Also, if you guys haven't noticed for the chatbox, 3 warnings and you're out.

So does the Chat Box have it's own warning system? Separate from the rest of the forum's?

I don't understand one thing. Why are the two guys, who start the most of the arguments, now moderators? Seems quite illogical to me.
