Okay guys, so there has been a huge increase in the amount of drama and fighting going on in the chatbox lately guys. As you all know, one of the most important rules on this site, and one of the ONLY rules for the chatbox is to keep drama and fighting to a minimum, because it only brings the stress of our real life onto the site.

However, there has still been an increase in fighting and drama in the chatbox. I know that I personally (as well as a lot of the other members) have been hanging around on the site and have seen fighting going on in the chatbox. There has been cussing back and forth, screaming at each other, and tons of arguing.

So, this is your warning, guys. This has not just been one isolated incidence--this has become a common occurence. This has been brought to the Admins' attention numerous times, and it does not seem to be stopping.

Therefore, this is your last warning. If this fighting and drama in the chatbox does not stop, we WILL have to take down the chatbox. I really do not want to take down the chatbox, but if this fighting and drama in the chatbox continues (which is breaking the rules), we will take it down.

This is not open to discussion.

Thank you for posting this, Kat.

Remember everyone...this is the first and ONLY warning the chatbox will receive before it is taken down! We may put it back in the future after that, if maturity is being shown. Otherwise, forget it.

kay! I shall repeat myself from another thread. Why don't you just ban the people fighting from the boxie? I dont post, you wont see me for a lonnnnnnnnnnnng time if the boxie goes down. The same goes for a few other people....

Here is the thing.

If it was just one or two people fighting in the chatbox, then we would just ban them, and it would not be a problem.

However, if it is larger groups of people, we will take the chatbox down.

And the point of the forum is to post. It is great that you are on the site so much, in the chatbox, and the chatbox is great! But it is not the only part of the site. The site was created for the threads, not for the chatbox.

Exactly! The chatbox isn't the main feature here anyway.

I agree 100% Kat.

Oooh. Thanks for posting this guys!

And yeah, this is a FORUM, not an instant messaging site. Go on AIM if that's what you want. -hugs lonely threads-

I mean, I appreciate how close everyone is because of the CB, but when it gets this out of hand, it's more bad than good.

The admins have also agreed...or at least the three of us online have agreed, that RP fighting is also not allowed. Even pretend fighting brings problems. All fighting does. Sorry guys. If you want to RP, go onto an RP site or the RP section of this site.

Ok this is spam and shameless promo, but..

YAY you should all go RP. We most definitely need more characters. It's all clean and fresh now, so don't be afraid to make a character and jump right in! It's super fun and an awesome alternative to the CB

HOORAY!!!!! I'm so happy someone stepped up to the plate!!! Swing!! HOMERUN!!! WOOO!!! When i go into the cb i hate all the cussing so i awlays type no cussing in there. I'm so glad this is happening!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

or if you find out who is doing the fighting you can ban those people from the chat box...

No pretend fighting in RP.... how are we supposed to have conflict and make it interesting?

Well, if you really want to have a conflict and such, then that's why we have an RP section here on the site. People get scared away from the CB when they see people kicking and screaming and whatnot.

Or you guys can role-play in the TAFF chatbox. IF! it's RP with the family that is of course.

I just feel this is starting to get rediculous... like... god forbid we do anything... Thats just how I feel... A lot of the old members feel like they are walking on eggshells just to do anything...

The chat box is for open discussion for more then one person... and its a great idea to have.... cause otherwise... it takes forever to get a response...
