IRC Rules and Tips

Please follow these rules when using the #uboachan chat.

1. Don't troll me bro.
2. Avoid extremely violent or sexually explicit discussions.
3. Do not flood the channel or spam the bots, or repeatedly paste the same link or identical content.
4. It is under the discretion of the IRC staff which bots may be allowed in the IRC channel. Ask a staff member before bringing your bot into the chat room and inform the staff member of the purpose of the bot, to prevent any confusion.
5. Keep linking NSFW content to a minimum, and provide a warning.
6. Keep personal business between yourself and the other party.
7. Follow all rules and terms outlined in the DatNode IRC Network Terms of Service.

Take into account these tips while chatting to improve discussion.

Don't interrupt a topic if it's currently being discussed.

Arguments are fine, just keep them civil and try to make a decent point. Let each other make their points and finish their statements before you start yours.

Not all topics of discussion are fun; talking about politics or religion is just asking for someone's jimmies to get riled. Use a bit of common sense before starting discussion about something.

Pay attention to the staff. If they tell you to stop something, then stop.

Why we almost never talk about Yume Nikki:

The idea of a chat room is to gather persons together that have a similar interest. While we won't bite your head off for talking about Yume Nikki, 2kki, or any other YN related game, we've already discussed most everything that could be discussed. This makes it quite boring to even speak of the subject. Instead of thinking that it's a chat "about" Yume Nikki, realize that it's just a normal chat, with the common denominator in the users being they somehow enjoy something about Yume Nikki. We just like to talk about other things instead of being obsessive over a game for years.

Channel modes: The IRC channel modes and staff generally correspond to the Uboachan board staff.
