Mods for the Chat

We mods haven't set any chat policy yet, but it makes sense to me that folks should use one of the Spoiler rooms to discuss the most recent books, so folks who haven't made it that far don't have to worry about tripping over a spoiler.

*eyebrow* Have you seen thread drift on the forums? Now imagine how fast it's going to mutate in a live chatroom. *shudder* :D

It'll likely take a while for people to get used to it, and to moving around the channels. The times the dice are the biggest issue are when there are several people talking quickly, and when the dice being rolled is something like 100d100.

D'joo ever do the old MSN chatrooms in their heyday? That was MILD in comparison to those on an AVERAGE day. Chaos, HO! But fun nonetheless; I frequented one good one for a couple of years (just average convo/chatter, not oriented towards any particular thing, and DEFINITELY not a meat market). In fact, I met the woman who became my wife in that chatroom. It can be a wonderful place, chat.

Nope, never used MSN. But used AOL since you had to pay by the hour. That's where my dislike of overusing the dice came from. Although people there did it to be completely obnoxious, and leaving the main rooms for the more specific topics did help. And yeah, it's one of those rooms where I met my b/f, too.

...Okay, yeah, no. I'm thinking one of the first Chatroom rules is going to be "no playing with the dice roller unless you're actually playing a game, and you're in a different room from those who aren't playing. And 100d100 is obnoxious."
