home .:. shell rules .:. channel aup .:. donate .:. user pages channel aupmost people on the network speak english, it is the most universal. if you really cannot speak english well enough, try to use an online translator do not repeat yourself if you ask a question and you do not get an answer, it means that either a) no-one knows the answer, b) no-one is online or c) no-one cares enough to answer you. repeating the question several times will just annoy us. don't do it. do not /msg anyone please do not /msg anyone without asking that person's permission beforehand, or unless that person specifically asked you to do so. you may be kicked or banned. if you have a +v (voice) in the channel, you may msg alex or an op at anytime, if you need to - please don't abuse this be polite & respectful we expect you to be polite and respectful evertime you are on the network, in any channel, not just to the ops but also to all people on the channel. plain text only many irc clients these days have the features that enable you to add a decoration to your text, e.g. bold, underline, colour, beeping, blinking text to a channel. do not use these features! also, do not use all caps. l33t sp34k do not use "leet speak" in the channel, it is ugly, it is irritating and it may show you as an immature person. we prefer you use just plain simple english. no status begging do not beg for a status in the channel, either voice, op, etc. if you ask/beg for any privileges (+o/+v), you will not get it, even if we were just about to give it to you. no lame nicks do not be annoying with your nick. people using nicks that contains characters such as ")({}[]^", or random capitalisation and/or a random combination of numb3r5 4nd l3tt3r5 may be removed from the channel. do not flood the channel with your nick change. pick a nick and stick to it please stick with one nick only whenever possible. do not change your nick often for fun only. there is no need to change your nick if you are away from your keyboard to any variation of away nicks, e.g. mynick-away, mynick-gone, etc. no spam of any kind you may not advertize anything on the network unless it is a direct response to someone's question. any bots found in the channel that have been placed there for advertizing will be permanently banned. no dns spam many of the script kiddies infecting the internet think it is cool to have a hostname that looks like "l33t0.kiddie.that.0wns.at.good.scene.hu". this is not acceptable. the host/ip will be banned from the channel if you use dns spam hostnames. host names should be rfc compliant, host.domain.tld no warez or account trading we do not trade any warez files and we most certainly are not interested in "trading l33t sh3llz". you will certainly be warned and probably kicked and banned if you continue. final words we realize that this may seem like we ask a lot, but there is a plus side of this. if you follow the rules, the channel ops should be on your side. this aup is meant to keep the channel in a controlled manner without anyone disturbing anyone else. |
