Chat Rules
1. keep chat in English
- non-English messages may be deleted without warning for moderation reasons
- some short greetings are okay and simple phrases are okay
- non-English is difficult to follow and moderate
2. no spamming repeated messages
- some exceptions for hype may be allowed, but please don't do this.
- certain "!commands" are also an exception
3. no advertising products or services
- bots beware
- chat is not the place for ads, too much of that as is.
4. no self-promotion of channels
- do not link your own channel
- do not link to other channels unless relevant to discussion
5. no bragging/arrogance
- I don't want to hear about how much you spent on that shiny thing.
- This is mostly about passive aggressive behavior, if you have a fun or interesting project you are proud of and want to share, this rule probably does not apply.
6. no soliciting for paid services
- if you ask me to pay you for something I didn't ask for, you will be timed out or banned
7. links in chat are allowed, but subject to moderation
- do not use link shorteners
- please remove any tracking/session related parameters if possible (many links put extra junk as query parameters)
- do not spam links
- twitch may apply link highlighting to code snippets or things that might look like links, these are mostly exempt, but do not abuse this
- other rules may apply to links and their contents
- if ever in doubt, ask before linking
8. do not flirt with Meisaka
9. do not be the reason for me to add more rules
