Simple chat rules

ADDENDUM April 8th 2012: Despite the below listed rules being quite simple and for the good of the community, there has been and continues to be a number people seeking to challenge these rules, complaining about "censorship" and their right to "freedom of speech," and then when they ultimately get banned, acting with disbelief, hysteria, or both. So after due consideration it seems we need to add some context to the rules. This context is as follows:

The Dark Souls Wiki and the chat did not spring into spontaneous existence. God did not make it because He loves you. There is no philosophical or United Nations mandated Human Right to Have A Dark Souls Wiki and a Chat. Nor is this a government-mandated programme paid for by your taxes. It exists through the effort of myself and the moderators, who put in time (and in my case also money) so you all can have a place to find information and discuss the game. It would not be much fun for anyone if the chat were deluged by spam. It would not be a welcoming community for all Dark Souls fans if we allowed profanity, bullying, or obscene material. I would also add that the American concept of Freedom of Speech refers to the government not being able to suppress political dissent. You would have to have a very distorted view to think that demanding to post a sexist joke on a game wiki was any form of astute politcal commentary. So, posters' privileges here are granted on mutual consensus of what is acceptable on the understanding you are on a private site. Hence the very simple rules below.

But perhaps it can be summed up simply this way: this wiki and chat exist through the effort of others and is made available to you on condition you don't act like an inconsiderate brat. If that really is too much to ask, go elsewhere.


I must also add my sincere thanks to the fans who abide by chat rules and have contributed to the wiki, who by far outnumber the fools.


1. No flaming, no cursing (at least not too much), no insulting, absolutely no homophobia, sexism, or racism and their associated slurs.
2. No stupid names like MrBigCock.
3. No pornography, no links to pornography, obsence or nude images including hentai and cartoons/animations. This applies to profile images as well.
4. No console wars.
5. Be friendly, be helpful, Be gentle . Be civil and respectful. This is a game chat, not an AOL singles meetup, keep the overt and drawn out sexual tones out of the convo and be mindful of the mixed community here. Everyone should feel comfortable to come here and chat.
6. Dont spam either text or links or anything, this includes links to other chatrooms or any solicitations.
7. Background images or colors may be neutral and light in nature. Typically these will include light shades of grey or off-white colors. For the sake of simplicity, all other background colors are prohibited. No obnoxious or illegible colors or fonts, no giant emoticons or gifs or excessive caps.
8. No discussion, or promotion of glitches, hacks, save edits. This chat is to ensure the integrity of the game remains.
9. Last but not least: always listen to moderators! When a moderator tells you to stop doing something in the chat, or to do something such as change your username color, this is them utilizing their discretion to apply the rules and as such their say becomes the rules. Arguing with the moderators will be counter productive and get you nowhere. If you encounter a situation where you feel that a moderator has abused his/her power, you can contact FexDS* or EmergenceDS*, please provide screenshots or chatlogs if possible and always contact the moderators yourself, second party requests will not be accepted.
- Impersonating a mod will lead to a ban.
