Chat Room Policies

The Rules

The sole purpose of this chat room is to facilitate woodworking discussions between woodworkers. Remember that TWW fans are of many ages and backgrounds from all over the world. Please be courteous and respectful to other users. Be polite, family-friendly, and don’t be disruptive. Also we recognize that users may chat about other things than woodworking, but in order to avoid disagreements, we would kindly ask you to refrain from discussing religion and politics.

Anything not covered here, is up to the channel founder’s and operator’s discretion, please respect their requests.

You may be kicked, muted, or banned for any of the following:

* Arguing with Moderators & Admins
* Any disruptive behavior
* Objectionable language
* Sexual comments
* Channel spamming or flooding
* Flaming or trolling
* Harassment or abuse of other users
* Being “annoying”

A Note For Our Younger Members

Over the years, we have had numerous young and energetic budding woodworkers enter our little community. While we encourage you to get involved in the conversation, you must understand that this is not your average chat room. Most of our participants here are 30+ years old, and the mood of our chat room is very relaxed and mellow. If you keep this in mind, you just might find yourself with numerous mentors who are willing to help you along in your pursuit of the craft. If you are pushy, obstinate, or offensive, you won’t get very far with this crowd. And please be aware that if I receive multiple complaints from other members, you will be banned from the chat room. If you were directed to this page by another member because of something you said, this should be considered a “friendly warning”. If you aren’t 100% clear on any of this, please contact me and I will be happy to explain it to you.

Now that we have all of that covered, let’s get back to the woodworking chat!
