The Rules!

Hi there, and welcome to the MMRPG Discord Chatroom! We'd like to welcome you and hope you enjoy your stay, as long as you follow these few Chat rules. Naturally, if you fail to follow the guidelines we've set down, you will be eligible for warnings and/or complete removal from the Chat depending on the severity of the rule broken.

0. Read the rules!
1. Treat each other with mutual respect. Discriminatory or inflammatory language will not be tolerated. Cursing is tolerated to an extent, but not if used excessively or in harassment of your fellow users.
2. Keep topics to appropriate channels. Discussions can sway from time-to-time as is natural. But be mindful of which channel the discussion is in. If a staff member asks to move the discussion elsewhere, please do so. In particular, please keep your memes to #very-risque-memes.
3. This is a SFW-server. Borderline NSFW content, whether through the forms of discussion, links, or nicknames, will be cause for mod action. If you’re unsure, engage a @Moderator. Always err on the side of caution.
4. No spamming anything. Common sense.
5. While we do have a bot, it is only designated to be used in the #bot-channel. Please don't abuse it; it's not at all polite to mistreat it, after all.
6. Keep outside server drama outside. If you have beef with another user, keep it out of here. This is not the place for it.
7. Do not link to websites that relate to ROMs or other means of piracy. Discussion of concepts such as emulation are okay, but not directly discussing how to find them.
8. A staff member may decide that a topic is unsuitable for discussion and can intervene to redirect or end the conversation at their discretion. These will often include controversial topics, including but not limited to the religious, political, sexual, discriminatory, etc.
9. The staff here is meant to adhere to the same rules as the rest of the community. As such, if you, as a member here, feel that a Staff Member is acting unbecoming of their role, please reach out to another staff member to let us know. We are here for you to administer and moderate to ensure this is a good place for all members involved. Abuse of a position will not be tolerated.
10. Treat each other with mutual respect.

============================================================================================================
[These new rules are subject to change at any time, and even more new rules will be added as time goes on.]

And after that?
Get to chatting! Granted, keep in mind you should've read the rules by now so you don't make a bad first impression!

Channel Descriptions
Here is an overview of General Channels:
#general is the main discussion channel here. Start here to engage with other members.
#gaming is for conversation based on the topic of gaming. Featuring Mega Man or the gaming media as a whole, this is the spot for playing with power.
#fangaming is specifically about games by the fans, for the fans. This is where you can go to promote awareness to a community-made title, or perhaps even to display your own.
#venting is based upon discussing issues one is facing outside or inside the digital world. Topics here will often be serious, so please show respect and allow others their space to vent.
#streaming-and-youtube regards streaming and video efforts done by content creators.
#entertainment-and-media focuses on works worth discussing, from the likes of literature, cinema, television, and journalism.

Here is an overview of Creative Channels:
#artwork gives artists their chance to display their craft. Once posted, fellow users will often provide their own constructive criticism, so listen accordingly.
#writing is for our artists of language. And like the artwork channel, constructive discussions are imperative to allow discussion to prosper.
#roleplay features active engagements in acting out the wondrous, the fantastical, and… the eccentric? Please ensure you’re treating fellow roleplayers with respect, and play fair.
#webcomics involve sharing the prominent field of digitally-based illustrative stories, whether it’s sharing your own or others’.
#music details the sharing of musical works. ‘Nuff said.
#very-risque-memes is about whatever random joke or Jojo reference is funny for today. Though humor does call for a bit more leniency, the NSFW rule still applies here.

Here is an overview of MMRPG Channels
#game-discussion specifically centers on talk based on the home site, Mega Man RPG Prototype.
#game-updates is a channel that’ll directly show you the latest updates towards MMRPG’s development. There is no real reason to post in this channel, but you may react as necessary.
#development features talk designated towards the work of developing the game itself. If you enjoy behind-the-scenes content and featured discussion, check it out.
#questions-and-help ? You can ask and receive info based on MMRPG or its Community here.
#suggestions is where you, yes you, can help directly improve and influence MMRPG through your ideas of criticisms. If they’re good and feasible, you might just see it be more than an idea!

There is also the #spoiler channel, a vehicle for finding out the latest facets of information, major or minor, before it’s officially unveiled. The channel should be contemporaneously named after what the largest source of discussion is, but if you’re not interested? Simply right-click and mute the channel.
