• DO say Hi when you enter the room.

• DO spend a few minutes seeing the current conversation in the room before you jump in with questions.

• DO familiarize yourself with the room for a few minutes before jumping in the conversation, find out who the HOST or Monitor of the room is in case you have questions or problems.

• DON'T use ALL CAPITAL LETTERS in a chat room. This is considered yelling and is rude.

• DON'T type gibberish in a chat room, lines of random text or numbers, this merely annoys chatters, and in some rooms can get you expelled.

• DON'T use foul language in chat rooms. This is often grounds for expelling OR banning permanently from a chat room.
• DON'T flood a chat room with repeated typing of the same word or number - this can cause you to be auto-expelled in many rooms.

• DO follow the rules and regulations for a chat room. If you have a question about certain rules contact the administrator or HOST of a chat room.

• DON'T disrespect other chatters. If you do not agree with a chatter, express your opinion in a respectful manner. Always remember to treat other chatters as YOU would want to be treated.

• DO put a chatter on IGNORE if the chat room has this feature if you are being bothered AND always report this to the room administrator or HOST on duty.

• DON’T Private message a chatter without first asking permission in the main chat room.

• DO have fun!

I endorse the above. Great list.

cheers,
Glen
