    KRISTY'S SIMPLE CHAT RULES

***I have received such an overwhelming reponse since I posted these.  Thank you to those who made
suggestions or responded.***

These are my suggested guidelines for chat etiquette.   Tell me what you think.

1.  Read the profile or bio, that's why it's there.

Corollary 1a.  If you do not read the profile and then ask "asl?" (or any
                   variation thereof) you deserve all the abuse, profanity,
                   and rudeness you will undoubtedly receive.  

Corollary 1b.  If you do have a profile, make it a complete profile.

2.  Unsolicited or uninvited private messages from strangers with
no profiles can be annoying; plain and simple.

3.  The person you are is a thousand times more interesting than the most
cleaver screen name you can ever make up.  Just be yourself.

Corollary 3a.  If your screen name would make your mother blush
                    you should change it.

Corollary 3b.  If you can describe yourself with just a screen name
                    you probably need to work on your depth of
                    character.

Corollary 3c.  If your screen name contains the word "sissy", "slave", or
                   "sub" you surrender your right to criticize, complain, give
                   advice, or critique.  Go sit in the corner and wait to be
                   called upon.

Corollary 3d.  If your screen name includes the word "sexy", "hot", or
                   "cute", (or any reference to genital girth ~ see rule 8)
                   and you don't have a picture or profile to substantiate it,
                   you open yourself up to abuse and doubt.  (see rule 4)

Corollary 3e.  If your screen name contains the word "slut" don't
                   count on getting much respect from anyone worth
                   giving it.

4.  A picture is worth a thousand words, post one and save your fingers
the typing.

Corollary 4a.  If your picture doesn't include your face chances are
                    it shouldn't be seen anyway.

Corollary 4b.  If you don't have a picture posted you shouldn't
                    criticize those that do.

5.  The tone and direction of any initial conversation is determined by the
first question you ask.  Simply put:  first impressions still matter.

6.  If you are not willing to disclose personal information about yourself
you shouldn't ask it of others.

7.  If you have no profile, and you continuously spam the net asking for
someone to chat with you, there is a very good chance you will be
perceived as a loser.

8.  Three certified photographs and notarized affidavits of three
independent witnesses must accompany all claims of genital endowment.

Corollary 8a.  Actual size is typically inversely proportional to any
                   unsubstantiated claim.

9.  Everyone is entitled to an opinion, and it may not agree with yours.

10.  Spelling is forgivable, bad taste isn't.
