Chatroom Rules

I. General Information

A chatroom is a place to easily communicate with other members who are presently on at the time. Chatting is meant to be a fun and enjoyable experience for all, and as such there are rules to be followed. Making sure to follow not only increases the chatroom's quality, but also improves general forum vibes.

II. Location

The chatroom of Humilau Resort can be found in two places. It is at the top of the site's main page, and can also be located on the button of the lower right corner of your screen. The secondary chatroom is so you can browse the forum, and not miss out on the chat room!

III. Humilau Resort Forums Chatroom Rules:

III.I No Spamming
It's pretty easy to spam, unfortunately. SPAM is an acronym for Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages. Fortunately however, most of it is overlooked because of how harmless it tends to be. What will not be tolerated and asked to be stopped are: typing in all caps for extended time, flooding the chat (making many posts over the course of a short period of time) with or without smileys, and generally being a nuisance to others. Replying to spam still counts as spam. A quick warning should stop this, but kicks and even bans are liable.

III.II No Flaming
Flaming is not overlooked as spamming is in the slightest. Flaming another member is being offensive to another member, be it "rude" or outright vulgar. There are no warnings necessary for this, and a ban may be used immediately for any derogatory remarks based on but not limited to: gender, race, age, sexual orientation, etc. If you're caught purposely doing this to acquire a reaction from someone or trolling, you will be quickly kicked off of the chatroom. Any attempt to counter flame/troll will be considered as such.

III.IV No Advertisements
Do you own, are part of, or are involved in any other forums, chatrooms, or websites? Glad to hear it. But shameless advertising to get other people to join is strictly prohibited. Any links will greatly increase your chances of being banned.

III.V Mini Modding
Mini Modding is when a regular member acts in a way of having power of a staff member. Though at many times well intended, the better alternative is to just contact a staff member directly. If there isn't one, record the message, and send it to a staff member via PM.

III.VI No Pornographic materials
Even if you are 18+ years old, it does not change the fact that this is not only a Safe For Work (SFW) forum, but that Forumotions is a Safe For Work company. Since this offense goes for both set of rules, you will be banned on the spot.

III.VII No direct images
If you feel the need to post an image, but you do not want to use a direct link, you may hide it inside of spoiler tags. The code is as follows:

* must be removed

IV. Be respectful of those you are chatting with. Everyone deserves respect, and if you cannot deal with that fact on the chatroom, it's best to avoid it.
