Charter for channel #dungeon on YiffNet, revision 1, last updated 03/08/96. Statement of purpose: The channel #dungeon is mainly a place for sexual roleplay, usually, but not always, along a BDSM (Bondage/Discipline - Sadism/ Masochism) theme. It will be a place where furries can live out their fantasies, away from the main channel and with the additional hardware that special kind of love requires. Channel founders: Ebony Nadya Guidelines of conduct: I. Participation The channel will usually be used for a scene between two people, though sometimes more will be involved. If an audience is permitted, they are requested to remain quiet, and not comment or interfere with the scene's main participant(s), unless asked to do so. If an audience is not desired, it is reccomended that the participants set the channel mode to invite only (+i). II. Channel Ops Channel operator status is reserved for the scene's participants only. There is more need to moderate and control this channel than most others, for example #furry, because of the nature of the channel's intended use. III. Disruptive Behavior Any person or persons disrupting or annoying the scene's participants may expect to find themselves dealt with in an apropriate manner. If someone has difficulty remaining quiet and keeping their comments to themselves, they should soon find the channel moderated (+m), and everyone but them given voice status (+v). Those who actively interfere with a scene, or act rudely to a participant after being warned about some aspect of their behavior that's inapropriate, should be kicked once as a warning, and be banned if they persist. To stress the point, non-paricipants are allowed in the channel only through the generosity of the participants, and should be careful not to abuse that privledge. IV. Bots Bots, including linkbots, are not allowed on #dungeon. Because of the need for the participants to remain in strict control of the channel, and the difficulty in moderating the actions of someone joined from another network, a linkbot is contrary to the purpose and spirit of the channel. V. Changes to this Charter Anyone is free to use #dungeon as long as they follow the rules outlined in this charter. If one wishes to suggest a change or ammendment to these rules, please contact Nadya or Ebony on IRC. Changes can be made only by the agreement of both channel founders.
