Hello friends!
Recently we regained our exciting Shoutbox. This tool may be new to some of our more recently joined members, and as so, we need to take a minute to introduce those members (and remind others) to proper etiquette in the Shoutbox.
We make the Shoutbox available for fun, light-hearted quick comments between members and the community. We have, however, noticed that some conversation recently that steers away from the lightness, and some members are also being a little eager to post repeatedly. We understand that it's fun and tempting, but here are some important guidelines for proper Shoutbox use:
-
Do keep the conversation fun! A quick grumble is acceptable, but for longer, drawn-out complaints, please post in the appropriate forum (What's Your Problem, for example) or PM a moderator.
-
Do let others have an opportunity to speak. Please do not "flood" the Shoutbox (ie. post more than 2 times in a row, or post excessively long comments.)
[changed from 3 posts to 2 posts as of February 08, 2013.]-
Do make sure your comments fit within the community content and language guidelines; the PG-13 rule applies in the Shoutbox just as much as it does anywhere else on this site.
-
Do be respectful to other members. If there is an issue of rudeness in the Shoutbox that a mod or admin does not catch, contact us. Mini-modding is not tolerated in the Shoutbox as well as on the forum.
If you cannot use the Shoutbox in a way that fits within our guidelines, your Shoutbox privileges can be removed.
Repeated violations of Shoutbox etiquette will result in a Shoutbox suspension.
Thank you all for your time!
-Your friendly mod and admin team at MLP Arena
