Note: these rules were modified at a meeting on 2012-09-13 after multiple complaints of IRC behavior
==Existing Rules==
* Use common sense and treat others as you wish to be treated. No flaming, trolling, or personal attacks; if you must, take it to PM please.
* Do not flood the channel; if it's more than 3 lines, please use a pastebin.
* #vtluug is for newcomers and experts alike. Please be helpful and friendly to everyone or don't say anything at all.
* Please do not announce /away in the channel (or change your status to indicate such).
* In the unlikely event that you are banned, do not attempt to evade your ban. Ban evasion will be dealt with strictly and will result in extension of your ban.
==Proposed Rules==
* Please do not announce /away in the channel (or change your nick to indicate such).
** '''Keep'''
* Off topic conversation cannot distract from on topic talk.
** Proposed: move non-linux/computing/food to #vtluug-social, but people will only idle in #vtluug-social if this is done
