Guild Voice Chat Policies

Hello Friends,

Guild chat is a place we can all get together and just, generally speaking, shoot the shit.  With our guild being as large as it is though there needs to be some guidelines on what kind of shooting is allowed to be done.  We have a few members of the guild who have been asked to help monitor chat & also have the permissions to promote you in to a timeout status which revokes your ability to enter in to voice chat.  I will do my best to make a list of the dos and do nots but things will come up that are inappropriate that are not listed here.  Do not think that if you find a way to be disruptive that isn't designated as off limits here you will be exonerated.  At the end of the day if any our board members, Kitty or myself find you to be a problem you will be removed from chat.  The rules are non negotiable and apply to everyone.

Sidenote: By everyone I mean everyone except Demon Kitty.  More than likely we will not be in timeout for any reason.

1. Any racial slurs or negative comments toward any race, sexual orientation, and or religion will not be tolerated regardless of your own back-round.

2. Any topics relating to politics and or religion that become a discussion should move from chat 1 to another chat.  They are not to take place in the general chat.

3. Any physically aggressive statements not only are ridiculous to make over a mic but will not be tolerated.

4. Being generally disruptive will earn you timeouts and @ a certain point removal from guild.  I know this is vague but some people manage to ruffle enough feathers by just being generally douchey and I can't really pinpoint what exactly to outlaw to avoid this but if i receive multiple private messages complaining about the same person that qualifies you as generally disruptive.

5.  If you have a lot to say about something and the discussion is limited to a small number of people in a large group please be polite and move your conversation to another chat room.

6. If someone asks a question in which the answer will be of use to the general population of chat please answer it there as it will inform more than one person.

7. Keep the one upping to a minimum.

8. Keep the dirty talk to a minimum.  We are all adults and occasionally a bit of dirt can be funny but keep it to a one liner.  No one is interested in your sexual escapades or the details of the porn flick you caught last night.

9. Don't be condescending

 

As time goes by and people do dumb shit that hasn't been covered here I will add more rules.

 

If you find yourself in timeout this is more than likely why.  Once you are placed in timeout the board will convene on how to handle your infraction.  You will then receive either in game mail or an xbox message explaining

1. What the issue was or what you had done wrong

2. Your timeout sentence (how long you will remain in timeout or your possible removal from guild)

3. Please do not argue your case this isn't the American justice system nor do your civil rights and freedom of speech apply in this company.  If you take issue with that hire a lawyer, although if you take issue with these rules more than likely you are not overly educated and lack the resources and or know how to do so.

 

In closing I would just like to point out that we do not wish to censor people but in an effort to create an environment that is for the most part pleasant this is a necessary evil.  For some of us guild chat one is a place we like to just sit around and chat.  In an effort to keep this a place people want to sit we have had to make some rules.  If you're a douche just use the store and stay out of chat.
