Chatbox rules and tips

No Flaming: If you want to talk, talk civilly. Insulting others, putting people down,. etc, is most certainly against the essence of peace, and is forbidden.
No Spam: While the consuming and discussing of the particular food product is allowed, pointless, off topic posts and topics will be deleted.
No offtopicness: Please post in the appropriate forum. Topics posted in wrong forums will be moved, and the topic starter will be warning. Off topic messages will be deleted.
No religious or political discussion: Unless a debate forum is allowed, this rule will stay.
No pornography, sexual discussion, innuendos, or sexual references: No posting any sexually explicit posts, RPing posts, stories, signatures, avatars, profile info, or whatever. Anyone breaking this rule will either be warned, or temporarily/permanently banned, going by a case by case basis.
No discussion of abortion, homosexuality: Both of these issues are far too controversial.

The Word Filter

As of right now, the only curses allowed are crap, damn, and hell. Most of others have been filtered, but just because a curse is not filtered does not mean it is not outlawed. It just means I didn't remember it when I set up the filter.

Although hell and damn are allowed, 'go to hell' and 'damn you' as well as putting 'God' before damn.

Please, no blaspheming the God-figures of various religions.

People breaking this rule will receive a warning and a post edit. If this rule is broken enough times, temporary/permanent banning may ensue.
