Net Etiquette


Don't offend other people. Simple as that. People come here to have fun and chat with lots of other users from around the world. They don't want to have to cope with some moron picking on them, or being offensive in public.
Also..
o Don't swear or make offensive comments in public. What you do in a private room with others who agree to be there is your own business, but in the public areas, please be sensitive to other people, who may have different ideas to you on what offensive is. Conversations relating to Drugs
will not be tolerated . No talk of 'how to get or where to find' pirated software is permitted.
o The offensive rule applies to your name, desc, profiles, and anything else made public as well. Wizards who are online at the time are empowered to make that decision.
o Please do not use a foreign language in Broadstreet. This is where new people log in and english is expected there. This rule also applies to shouts and other commands which are seen by everyone on Philadelphia. Please be courteous of others and do these commands in english so that others may understand you. Being offensive or rude in -any- language will only cause trouble, so please, be nice. ;-)
o Please don't give unwelcome attention to other users, especially after they ask you to stop. Harrassing other users will be dealt with severely.
o The wizards are here to moderate the talker, and try to keep things running smoothly (ie happy users). They do *NOT* want to be net.police, imposing a lot of regulations, they come here to chat like anyone else. So try to sort out disputes yourself before you ask a wizard. The above guidelines that you are expected to follow and to interpret sensibly. And no, it's not a democracy. If a wizard is put in the position where they HAVE to make a decision, that decision is final. If you disagree with a wizard, just deal with it, OK?
o This service is offered free to the public, but it is not public property, and the owner has the right( and will EXCERCISE THAT RIGHT ) to refuse access to whoever they choose, whenever they choose, free from any violations of the First Amendment (which being a part of the US constitution, doesn't apply to a lot of us anyway).
o If you don't agree with the above principles, then don't use this talker . If you want your free speech, then make your own talker. There is public domain code available to run a talker very similar to this one.

Thanks for reading, and enjoy your stay.
