SCOUTLINK RULES
As this is a local copy always check http://www.scoutlink.net/
if you are unsure.
The growing popularity of Scoutlink makes it necessary to define some rules and regulations to maintain a Safe and Pleasant place for Scouts & Guides to Chat.
Violation of any of these rules, depending on severity, can result in anything from a verbal warning, time bans or even Blocking of an ISP from the Network. These rules and regulations are to protect Scoutlink, the Channels and the Users.
If you observe any violations of these rules, please copy the log of the chat and/or email a complaint to scoutlink@scoutlink.net or your country coordinator for further action. |
Conduct-
Please conduct yourselves according to the Scout Law, Oath/Promise. Many problems can be avoided by keeping this in mind. You are responsible for anyone you let use Your Computer or Your Nick on the servers - no exceptions.
Idling Channel sitting or idling is not permitted. People are here to talk to others. There is nothing worse than trying to talk to someone who is not there.
Do not sit idle for more than 30 minutes.
Channels
Please Refer to the Channels Page HERE
Bots, Scripts and Hostmarks
No unauthorized bots or scripts are permitted. Spoofed hostmarks will not be tolerated.
Popups / Aliases / IRC Client programing
No Autogreets are permitted.
As a guideline - Limit all popups to 2 to 3 lines. (a line is 45 Characters long)
Sounds
No random wavs or midis are to be played on channels. They may be played if they are part of the conversation, such as hello.wav. If you wish to share your sounds with others, #sounds is a channel designed for that. Invite others into #sounds and have fun.
Language
No abusive or foul language will be permitted. Some channels handle swearing strictly, so beware :)
Flooding
No flooding by type, color or sound will be permitted.
Patch Trading
We realize that patch trading is a normal part of Scouting. However, please keep your requests to a minimum and do not annoy everyone who joins the channel. A DCC Chat request or query window would be preferable. If enough interest is shown, Scoutlink might create a trading channel.
FServers
No open or public fservers are permitted.
Personal Info
PLEASE! Do not give out your phone number or address on open channel!
IRC Clients
IRC clients such as mIRC, Pirch, IRCle, ircII, differ greatly. Some see color and graphics, others do not. Please be considerate.
