Attention All Chat Room Users!
The main purpose of the Chat Room is to share our experience and offer Support to our New members, who often enter Chat in distress and are looking for a kind word.
It's come to my attention that some members are belittling our New Members. This type of behavior will not be tolerated, it's also breaking Rule #4.
I suggest anyone who cannot offer such support, to use the ignore feature or perhaps use the forums for your recovery.
Anyone who chooses to ignore SR's Rules, risks having your chat privileges revoked.
Thank you, to all our Members who respect the rules and make Chat a pleasant experience for all.
Best Wishes

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 of, 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.
It is also our policy not to allow threads that are purely to announce that you are unhappy here and "leaving the site'" or to post threads discussing why someone left or was banned. Such posts often detract from our purpose of providing support in recovery. Posts of this nature may be removed and continued posting of this nature could jeopardize your membership. If you wish to “leave” SR or just take a break from the site you are welcome to notify your friends via the Private Message feature.
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.
