Proper etiquette in a chat room makes it a more enjoyable place to gather. Many places to chat have become an open forum for argument and hurt or just plain vulgarity. When this happens good people leave. The following rules are a general guideline to follow which will help make this a quality chat room and develop a true sense of "Community".
    · Always greet someone who enters the room with a friendly "Hi" or "Welcome".
    · Please refrain from vulgar or profane language.
    · Never use or take God's name in vain. After all this is the 2nd commandment!
    · Ask for clarification of your interpretation of someone's reply to your post, before you make an accusation of what you may think they meant. Comments like "Did you mean?" or "Am I understanding you right?" are a good way to clarify things.
    · When discussing/giving opinions on Medifast products or plans, other social issues or any other emotional topics...Always begin your comments with "I Think", "I Believe", "I Feel" etc.... This small gesture eliminates personal attack on someone.
    · Never "Flame or Insult" anyone or their beliefs, opinions and values. Arguing with someone will never make a friend or build a community.. Always respect each others values/opinions!
    · Don't use LARGE CAPS FOR ALL OF YOUR TYPING, this is known as yelling and is normally used to emphasize a phrase or statement. Anyway, you don't want to be known as a LOUD MOUTH.
    · Beware! Don't give out any personal information unless you really want the whole world to know. This is for your own protection!
    · Add your email to your profile and instruct people to use the link provided to email you. Never add your email to a post, unless you want your inbox full of spam!
    · This is an open forum to the public, and with your help we can keep it that way. Welcome and enjoy....icon_smile.gif

I'm pretty sure I break every one of those rules on a regular basis.
