A quick note: These are by no means a complete description on how to conduct yourself in the group. It is simply a list of "DO NOT"s that I've gotten tired of seeing people DO.

As well, these are for our steam group chat room only. This has NOTHING to do with private messages, in-game chat and importantly the IRC channel. This has nothing to do with how us as friends talk to each other or how any of us should see or treat anyone else. It is only to deal with the difficulty of moderating our steam group chat room.

-- No all caps
objective

-- No in-the-news people-politics
kinda subjective because strictly, politics is a very broad topic and the news does talk about cool stuff sometimes

-- No religion
kinda objective, because it's easy to spot a mile off but the informed/though-out opinion part of this is hard to nail

-- Don't be an ass
subjective

The objective stuff you can expect an instant kick, almost as a reminder, because there will be no warning. The really subjective stuff we'll do a lot too, but in moderation and if you try it too and mess it up, you'll get a lot of hate pointed your way. As a final reminder, this is only for steam chat, we have an IRC channel and most topics are open for discussion most of the time, if you're tread carefully enough and you're subtly enough. It's just that with steam, it's hard to get everyone to follow these unspoken but important rules of discussion.
