IRC Rules
Please follow these while on the #Halo-Fanon IRC Channel. Breaking rules will be dealt with at the current Op's discretion.


 * 1) No banning/removing/autoremoving/muting users for no reason.
 * 2) No kickwars/banwars - take them to #kickwars and #banwars.
 * 3) Browser wars are prohibited. Take them to #browserwars.
 * 4) Keep discussions about politics to a bare minimum, unless it has something to do with the topic at hand. Take political arguments to #uncyclopedia.
 * 5) Do not remove autoremovals or bans without discussion unless someone has autoremoved or banned a channel operator.
 * Assume good faith.
 * 1) Use your real username while on the channel. It is strongly recommended that you register a username . Varying nicks are permitted (see grouping ), but all users should use their site usernames, or a close variation/abbreviation as their registered IRC name.
 * 2) Permission is not required in order to archive, i.e. "quoting", conversations in public channels. It is, however, required in personal/private channels/messages.
 * 3) No cursing to be used offensively, i.e. personal attacks. Keep it civil and mature.
 * 4) No spamming, flooding, mass posting etc. Use pastebin or a wiki page to post logs longer than five lines.
