Alright fellow chat users, this is very important:
The XMF live chat has been a great place for X-men fans to go to talk to each other. It's just another great bonus to being a member of the awesome forum we're a part of. It's NOT meant to be a place to mock, fight, and treat each other like dirt. I think most people would agree with me that the pre-release and post-release chats, although a bit crazy at times, were both successes over all. Since then, many members of XMFF, including myself, have made ourselves home there regularly. For the most part, it has been an enjoyable experience, but I've notice recently that things have gotten a bit tense around here. Granted, there are always a few who will try to make things less enjoyable, but lately things have gotten a bit out of hand. The mods you will find on the chat are the same mods who are on this great forum, and just like in the forum, it's our job to make sure the chat is running the way it was INTENDED, to prevent it from becomming a place for immature behavior such as fighting, swearing, spamming...etc. There have been a few who have questioned us and perhaps even have held grudges against us for doing our jobs but you have to understand why we are doing what we do. We need to uphold the rules in order to keep up an environment that can be enjoyable for all, and the majority of chat-users cannot enjoy an environment that is plagued by the immature and offensive behavior of a few....so when we ban someone, believe me, we ALWAYS have a good reason. On behalf of ALL the mods on XMFF and the chat, we all want this chat to be a GREAT place to go and we want to enjoy every minute of it just as much as everone else, so when we see that this is not happening we will have no choice but to do our jobs. I don't want to see the chat dissappear, do you guys?
