RULES -PhotoHut Channel.:Rules:.
* Be considerate with your language, and don't be an annoyance to others. PhotoHut staff and Operators reserve the right to kick or possibly ban any parties involved in heated arguments and discussion. While rules may not be technically broken by the participating members at the time, it is detrimental to the flow of the room to allow such altercations to continue. Therefore, it is within any staff member's power to hold those responsible for not controlling their opinions, behaviors, and tempers.
* Limit the use of profanity. Racist Slurs, anti-Semitic or other derogatory remarks about philosophies and religions, as well as highly offensive and hostile remarks based on gender or sexual preference will result in a kick and/or ban from #PhotoHut.
* Threatening, directly insulting, or harassing your fellow chatters is prohibited and can result in an immediate ban from the chatroom.
* Do not ask A/S/L or any variations of this. Such as, "How old is everyone?"
* Please do not ask for comments, pageviews, favorites or full-views in #PhotoHut. Generally, if you are sharing a thumb, you are already asking for such and asking is redundant. Not only this, it adds unnecessary clutter.
* If you were banned, do not create multiple accounts and/or come in on your other existing accounts. You cannot avoid a ban.
* #PhotoHut is English only. Please refrain from speaking in other languages. This rule has been enacted to make moderation possible in all instances, as staff obviously cannot moderate a language they cannot understand.
* DO NOT ask to be promoted. Any requests to be promoted to Members, Seniors, Staff or Operators will be ignored and could result in a Kick or Ban.
* *Note: The Operators and Staff will use their discretion in the above category of Chatting/ General conduct in #PhotoHut
* Avoid excessive shouting (use of all-caps), excessive word streeeeeeeetching or flooding (continuous posting of repetitive text) in
#PhotoHut. Flooding is defined as any rapid or high-volume posting. This includes but is not limited to thumbnails, or text.
* Do not use #PhotoHut to advertise your chatroom, community or website without the permission of a #PhotoHut Founder.
* Do not post the same thumb repeatedly over a short period of time or post one thumb repeatedly in a line. It is unfair for the other guests/members in the room.
* Members and Groupies are allowed Four thumbs per line, and guests three thumbs per line. If you wish to contribute many thumbs, post one line of thumbnails, and then allow at least five minutes before posting your next set of thumbnails.
* Do not use the multiline input while posting thumbs, post them in just one line.
* Do not name spam. When posting a message to more than a couple people leave out usernames. This prevents postspam of away messages.
* Do not post an excessive amount of emoticons in one line, or repeatedly post emoticons line after line. "Emote spamming" slows down the room considerably.
* Large emotes such as the llama emote are considerd equal to a thumb. More than one or two of the same large emote in a line is considered spam.
* *Note: The Operators and Staff will use their discretion in the above category of Spamming.*
* Do not post thumbnails or links which contain:
* Pornographic or nude deviations as defined by deviantART's Submission Agreement (deviations marked as mature and deviations in the artistic nude category excluded; however, pornographic images uploaded as deviations are not).
* Links which may contain viruses.
* Links to pronographic images or text.
* Links to add +devwatch or +favorite (example: my. deviantart.com/deviants/add/Thumbshare or www. deviantart.com/favourite/#######/)
* Links to websites with racist/hateful content (websites that promote Racism or other derogatory propoganda about philosophies, religions and/or sexual prefrence.)
* *Note: Breaking any of the rules in this category will result in an immediate ban*
* We do not allow any illegal activities. We are not responsible for anything you say in the chatroom, or for any consequences that arise from what you say. If you break the law, you alone will be responsible for the consequences.
* You cannot use #PhotoHut to publish, post, distribute, or disseminate defamatory, infringing, obscene, sexual, or other unlawful material, images, text, or information.
