Chat Members

[Morning Glory]

There will be no tolerance for cruel posts or cruel private messages to members in chat. There will be no tolerance for disrupting a meeting. If I see it when I read the chat transcripts there will be chat bans.

If you have no tolerance for a member in chat you can:

• Put them on ignore by right clicking on their name and clicking "ignore".
• Create your own private chat room.
• Move to a different chat room.
• Find another site with a chat room you like.

If you don't like a meeting:

• SIMPLE: DON'T ATTEND

I am not going to continue to read 6 MB of chat transcripts every day because members can't follow the rules in chat.

If you are banned from chat and reregister with a new name you will also be banned from the forums.

Here are the forum rules.

4. No Flaming: Posting of any content with the intention of disrupting the forum or inflaming members-be it on someone's person, religious beliefs, race, national background, sexual orientation, or recovery program. This includes flaming, flame baiting, registration of multiple accounts or impersonation of another member. Do not Harass, threaten, embarrass or cause distress or discomfort upon another Online Forum participant. This includes flaming on our forums or other public forums.

No posts that attack, insult, "flame", defame, or abuse members or non-members. Respect other members of the community and don’t belittle, make fun off, or insult another member or non-member. Decisions about health and recovery are highly personal, individual choices. "Flaming" and insults, however, will not be tolerated. Agree to disagree. This applies to both the forums and chat.

Ignore bothersome members. If there is someone on the forum that bothers you, select the Ignore option on the drop down menu under their name on the post. You won't see any posts from this member again.

11. Chat Conduct: The forum rules also apply to the chat room. The chat chairs have authority during their chat meeting times in the meeting room. Please respect their decisions during chat meetings and do not disrupt the meetings. If you have a problem contact a chat moderator or forum leader. If you do not wish to attend the chat meeting please move to another room to continue open chat.
