DHPD Chat Rules
Chat Room Behavior
1. Do not spam the chat room. Spamming includes flooding the room, repeated sound use or beeping of people, and improper or unrelated links.
2. Profanity is not explicitly prohibited. However, excessive, extremely vulgar, and crude profanity is ill-advised. If asked to stop or cease the profanity, you will do so.
3. Idling in chat is not acceptable. Administration will kick excessively unresponsive or unvouched-for users at their discretion, even if they have away mode on or AFK in their name. If auto-rejoin is enabled, a time ban will be employed.
4. Common courtesy and common sense are expected. If a chat member is found to be excessively lacking in these areas, they may find themselves kicked and/or banned. Fooling around is fun, but if seriously asked by one or more officers to cease an activity, you will be expected to do so.
5. Non-DHPD members using chat are guests. They are expected to act in a courteous and respectful fashion.
PUNISHMENTS
There will more than likely be a person in position to dole out punishment for offenses. If none are present, feel free to report it on the board to be dealt with. Punishments for the above offenses can include:
a) Kicking
b) 5 minute ban
c) 1 hour ban
d) 24 hour or permanent ban.
The situations will be dealt with on a case to case basis. If repeat offenses are a problem, perma-bans may be used. Chat room moderators have full discretion in employing bans. If you wish to appeal a ban, you may do so by making a post in this forum.
