The following constitute the general rules of behaviour while visiting nevernet. Please read these thoroughly.

  • Users in official public chat rooms must be at least 16 years of age.
  • Users in chat rooms in which nevernet have determined to retain a consistent sexual nature must be at least 16 years of age.
  • Users in any other chat rooms must be at least 13 years of age.
  • Please do not insult other users by use of inflammatory or offensive statements or images.
  • We ask that you refrain from expressions of bigotry, racism, hatred, or profanity.
  • Please do not harass other users, including verbal abuse or personal attacks.
  • Please do not engage in racial, religious, ethnic, or sexual slurs, lewd comments, or generally disruptive behaviour.
  • Public chat rooms, except chat rooms containing the word 'sex', are not appropriate spaces for cyber-sexual behaviour, sexual orientation discussions or activity.
  • The use of all caps is considered shouting, please refrain from using caps unless you are intending to shout. Please refrain from flooding (continuous posting of repetitive text) as this can be annoying to users.
  • Nevernet or its associates reserve the right to enforce compliance with these guidelines, which may include temporary removal from the network.

Please direct any questions regarding these rules to the #help (english) or #aide (french) chat rooms.
