If you have to repeat yourself what you had to say in the first place wasn't worth much to begin with. Do not demand or expect other players to immediatly help you with your question or problem.

== Spamming ==

Intentional spamming is defined as posting line after line of random characters or obnoxious/obsence words and phrases. Get caught doing this and you will be banned. Unintentional spamming is, more often than not, committed by players new to the chat channels and is a bit harder to spot... if you are the one doing it. Others, however, will not be so slow to identify unintended spamming. Oftentimes, unintended spamming is created by a player's excitement over something they wish to share with the channel.

A good rule of thumb is to look at the chat and see if your posts are considerably more numerous than everyone elses. If so, do your posts talk about things that others in the channel are most likely interested in? If not... it's probably going to be viewed as spam.

== Scamming ==

Any player caught scamming, aiding or abetting a scammer or participating in any event or action that is considered scamming will be banned from the public chat channels. If anyone attempts to scam you report it to a mod. Be careful, though. Punishing a scammer means the mod MUST know, without a shadow of a doubt that the player was indeed intending to scam. i.e., screenshots, etc. That way there's no question. It's not one person's word against another, because that does happen sometimes out of spite.

If anyone attempts to scam you, report it to a mod. Understand, however, that punishing a scammer means the mod MUST know, without a shadow of a doubt, that the player was indeed intending to scam. Be prepared to supply proof. Even then no action may be taken as proof can be faked. In matters that come down to one person's word against another, the chat moderators will not take action.
