ChatNet Channel Service rules:

• Never use your position and access to K9 to threaten or coerce a user.
• You should not auth for a channel unless one of the following is true:
  • You are or are considered a channel operator or channel master for that channel.
  • You are performing Cservice duties by request of the channel master or a channel operator with K9 access on that channel.
• If you are a channel operator on a channel with less then 500 level access then you should still consider yourself as such on that channel and act in accordance of that level.
• In a channel where you have been invited to act as a channel operator, knowing you are a Cservice member and level 600 with full access to K9, it is best if first you ask what the channel master would expectof or allow you to do that way you know what access level that channel master is allowing you. I.E. If the channel master allows you to have 500 access, then you are free to use up to level 500 commands.
• In a situation where a channel, in which you are not considered to be the channel master or a channel operator, is moded in such a way that one cannot enter without the use of global access, then you should not attempt to enter, but message someone with a request to enter, just as any other user would have to do. I.E. If a channel is moded +i, don't use global access to have K9 invite you or mode the channel -i. The exception to this is a channel takeover.
• Always respect the channel masters of every channel as having full and final authority in that channel, and the K9 accessed channel operators as being the agents of, and working in the interests and under the direction of, that channel master. If a channel master or channel operator is abusive, do not retaliate via global access, but rather bring that information and the log of such a confrontation to one of the Heads or the Assistant Head for further handling
• A channel master or channel operator has the right to kick or ban anyone from their channel at any time for any reason.. including a Cservice member if that is their desire. Any bans set by legitimate channel operators of that channel against a Cservice member should by NO means be tampered with or removed. Such an incident should be reported to one of the Heads or the Assistant Head and they will determine the actions if any to be taken.
• All problems not concerning K9 (flooders, user-user disputes, etc.) brought to #DogHouse are to be directed to #Nuthouse.
