Yes, this time the effort is genuine and we will be here a lot more often. Hopefully we'll see a lot of the old crowd in here and lot of new faces as well. For your chatting pleasure: here are the rules, kiddos, and don't think that just 'cuz we like to chill, we won't enforce them! See you in the chat!

No A/S/L. It's a foolish question as anyone who wants to share this information has already done so on their userpage.

Please don't advertise other clubs/chatrooms/communities/etc. And while we're on this topic, no spamming.

Thumbsharing is not prohibited, but not actively encouraged either. This is not a thumbshare room, but a room to make friends, possibly who live in near you!

There is a zero tolerance policy on the discussion of illegal activity such as warez/cracks/etc.

No excessive role playing - there are chats for that. This is not one of them.

This is not a debate room. The room is not here for the purpose of debate, but for the purpose of having a place where Californians and others can gather and chat. It is not against the rules to talk about matters of public concern, but please be respectful and don't push your ideas or debate to excess.

Please watch your language and no cybering. This is an all ages chatroom, we want it to be comfortable and safe for everyone.

No AOL speak - please type clearly and in sentences. Please keep CAPS to a minimum as well.

People are not here merely for your personal entertainment. Please do not complain incessantly about being bored, or demand to be entertained.

Song lyrics are permitted but, again, not encouraged. We all listen to music, but please don't dominate the chat with yours.

Don't mess with the Governators and look out for LAPD!
