CAPOF IRC chat!
« on: October 07, 2012, 08:02:04 PM »
Come chat with us!

Enter your desired nickname (mine is my forum name)
And click the "GO" button. It will do it's thing for a few seconds, (Dont type anything else in) and you should be all set.

NOTE: This is an idling thing, If you see nobody there, please keep this chat in an open tab while you are on your computer and check back every half hour to see if anything happened. That way we can have more chats. I've put a lot into this and would like people to use this chat and have a great time. Thanks!

**Basic commands are**

/nick (your desired name) For changing your name while staying in the room
/join #(Channel you wish to join) To join another channel

I will give OPS (operator) status to admins of the forum. That gives you the ability to kick, boot, and ban people.
Please do NOT perma ban people for over one week as this room is forgiving.

#CAPOF Chat Channel Rules

Age limit
You are required to be at least 16 years old to come and chat on #CAPOF. We are not responsible for the display of explicit content to people who are not legally allowed to see such content.

If we suspect a user is under the age of 16, access to #CAPOF may be suspended until we can verify the user's age. False identification will result in a one week ban from the channel.

Nicknames
Nicknames shouldn't be offensive to other visitors, ethnic or religious points of view, or minorities of any kind. While we are mostly grown-ups over here, extremely explicit nicknames are prohibited. When asked by an operator to change your nickname, you are advised to do so.

Banners, color, and caps
Excessive use of banners (visual messages that consist of multiple lines of text, usually with multiple colors), color or caps (shouting) is prohibited. Moderate use is allowed as long as it doesn't impact the ongoing conversation or annoy people. Operators may disable color if deemed necessary.

Flooding
Entering random characters, nonsense, or lots of text in a very short period of time is prohibited. Excessive flooding will immediately result in getting kicked from the channel.

Trolling, flamebaiting and general idiocracy

Trolling, flamebaiting and other idiotic, malicious, disrespectful acts do a disservice to the chat and will result in a short-term ban.
Repeated breaking of this rule will result in a long-term or perm-ban.

Explicit language, nudity, pornography, 18+ content
Use of excessive explicit language, racial slurs, remarks and other types of offensive behaviour is absolutely not tolerated.

We might have an age limit, but #CAPOF is not a porn channel. That effectively means that users are not allowed to post or link to explicit pornographic material. If you want to post nudity that falls within this policy, please make sure to add [NSFW] before the link. So something like:
"[NSFW] http://www.somewebsite.com/blah/somehotgirl.jpg"
By adding the NSFW (Not Safe For Work) tag, people know what to expect.

Illegal activities
The policy of the OFTC network states that illegal activities will result in an immediate ban from the OFTC network. There's nothing we can or will do about that.

Disputes between users
In general, we don't interfere with disputes between users, except for making sure our channel does not become a battle ground. We don't pick sides, we don't judge.

Disputes with operators
If there is a dispute between a user and an operator, and the involved parties are unable to resolve the dispute, a mediator may be assigned by or within the ops-team.

Getting banned
If a user repeatedly or excessively breaks the channel policy, the user could get banned from the channel. Banning is a last-resort measure, and we have 2 sorts of bans:

rejoin-ban: in this case, a user gets banned, kicked, and unbanned shortly after. This ban is used to prevent the auto-rejoin functionality of a client.
short-term ban: a short-term ban is a timed ban that lasts for somewhere between 6 hours and one week, depending on the case. The user will be informed in the kick-message of the duration of the ban.


I currently own the room but I'd be willing to hand it over to Brutuz if he so desires.

If any admins from the forum does NOT want a chat room. Feel free to let me know, and I will remove my posts, and close the room.

Thank you! Happy chatting!

Well done, thanks  :) :-*

Maybe change the topic title and we could make it sticky

Let's leave it in your hands for the time being and evaluate somewhere during first week November.

Meanwhile those who chatted, please let us know if you like the chat etc.

Personal: I started chatting 1999/2000' ish but it only lasted a few weeks, I don't like online chat rooms

I don't know much about IRC but interested for sure. The link did not display well on my phone so I'll have to wait till I get home later in the week.
Long days and pleasant nights to you...

This is really where chat could be valuable. We are all in a different place and in different time zones. The forum is perfect for different time/different place communications. Chat would be more useful if there was a specific time/event we could plan on.
