As a reminder, the following rules should be noted and followed when writing comments anywhere on any of our Poptropica Help networks:
- No inappropriate content! Never, ever, should we see cursing, swearing, insulting or other evil and offensive content here. Remember, there are other children in the chatroom.
- Be respectful towards everyone. Especially if you want people to respect you back. We want the PHC to be a friendly environment, so if you want to chat in one, you will have to be nice as well. This includes but is not limited to no bullying, calling people names, spreading false rumors, etc. Out of common courtesy, we would hope that you would have the decency to treat others well.
- Don’t spam. This means typing random trash like “bcskndnv” that makes no sense, asking things that have already been answered over and over again, typing with ALL-CAPITAL LETTERS, typing too many messages in a row without letting others respond first (called flooding; you can keep them all in one message instead!), or having a comment comprised of just smilies (
) only.
- Do not share personal information, and don’t ask for any from others. For example, your full name (first name only if you want to use your real name), your specific address (saying what state or country you live in is fine, but you shouldn’t get too detailed). Please keep it safe if you’re going to share your details.
- Don’t deceive others. Nobody likes to be lied to, cheated, or scammed! Posing as someone else (stealing another identity/impersonation) is also strictly against our rules.
- Don’t ask to be a staff member. Our staff will be looking out for active, helpful community members and will hire someone if we feel that they can do a good job. You may contact us with Poptropica info you’d like to share even if you aren’t a staff member. If we use your help, we will acknowledge you. Remember, you don’t have to be a staff member to help out!
- Use proper grammar. When typing your messages, please keep them relatively simple to understand. Keep your abbreviations (“lol”, “u”, etc) or smilies (
) to a minimum, and use correct punctuation (?.:,!) where it is needed.
A note about all this; if you’re not sure whether something is considered acceptable, it’s probably not a good idea to try it.
The purpose of these rules is to maintain a positive, helpful, friendly community within the chatroom. If you do not agree with the rules, the PHC may not be the right place for you.
These rules are subject to change at any time, and new rules may be added, so please check back and make sure you comply with our policy. Those seen to be disobeying rules may possibly be banned from our Poptropica Help Chat community. Stay safe and have fun!
