Yes, the cbox is back but it is on a trial basis for now. As some of you know, they do tend to cause lots of problems between members so if this happens then it will be taken away again, no questions asked. Having the cbox is a privilege, not a right so please remember that. The IC box is also back so these rules apply to that, as well. For those of you who are wondering what has happened to the Chatango cbox, it will not be making a comeback at all. That one definitely causes more problems than it is worth, especially when you are busy modifying headers and footers like I am half of the time or working on a post just to have it make your browser freeze and lose everything you worked on. I am going to have to be selfish on this point but I’m sure you’ll all live.
These rules may change at any time so keep an eye out.
- No OOC arguing – if anyone is found to be doing this, they will be given a warning. If it continues then they will be banned from both Cboxes. This can be done without any further warning being given. If there are disagreements, take it to PM, don’t fight in front of everyone.
- No advertising – this goes without saying really but any talk of other RP sites, posting of links to other sites or even reminiscing about them will result in a temporary ban. You have been warned. If you want to do any of this then the answer is simple, take it to PM or IM or, if you do want to advertise, head to the affiliate board and you’re all sorted.
- Posting – if having these two back result in a decrease in site activity then, again, they can be taken away. It is all well and good being able to talk to your friends, meet new people and so on but this site is, first and foremost, a role playing site and that is what you are all here to do.
- Logging in on accounts – just because the cbox is back does not mean that this should stop happening. There has been an issue with it in the past and if we find that people are coming on to use the cbox but not logging in and not posting then the result won’t be good.
- Use of the cbox - the cbox is there for you to get to know the other members and have fun using, not to b**ch about something going on on the site or in real life. If you need to talk about it, take it to PMs, DO NOT air it publicly. Anyone found to be doing this could end up being temporarily banned from using the cbox.
