You may notice to the side there is something called a Chatango Box – This is more commonly referred to as a “C-Box” or “Chatbox”. If players are online, they may talk here after creating a Chatango account! This offers instant gratification for talking, asking questions, short role plays, etc. HOWEVER, with every new thing comes a few rules. Please read the following.
► The c-box comes with a strict rating of PG-13. This is not up for discussion, as ALL players have access to this little magical box. While the board itself supports Adult Themes, the c-box does NOT.
► Continuing on the same tangent as the above statement, there is to be NO smut of ANY kind in the c-box. Do not discuss ANYTHING of an adult nature like that in the c-box under any circumstances.
► Do not bait members into arguments. In fact, try to refrain from having arguments of ANY sort in the c-box. That little box is for fun and happiness, not for angry things. You have a problem, please come to a moderator with it.
► Don’t spam the c-box. What this means is don’t just post emoticons, pictures, what have you. I figure that comes without being said, but I’ve seen people do the above in the past, so…
► The c-box, by default, is OOC. (Hidden Word : Forward) You may, however, conduct short little diddies IC if you so choose. You should, however, realize others will come in OOCly and will not realize automatically that you are IC. PLEASE denote that you are, and use […] or (…) when speaking OOC so everyone can tell. If this becomes a problem, I will pose a NO IC ban on the c-box. I don’t want to do that.
► If players are having a serious conversation, don’t just storm in with something completely unrelated. You may participate in the conversation, of course, but it is RUDE to just throw in random crap, or turn the world on it’s head because –you- logged in.
► Feel free to add colour to your message, but make it visible. No one wants to high-light the words just to see what someone said. It’s irritating.
FAILURE to follow the above rules will result in a strike. A second failure to follow the rules will result in suspension from the site for a few days. You wouldn’t believe how serious these things can become rather quickly.
So long story short? Just obey the rules, dude.

By the way? I 'unno who copied a Sweden I know with these things, but not cool. B[ ANYWAY. I'm going to go ahead and say that Sweden at Darker Reflections owns this. Just because it really does sound like his work.
