## The shoutbox is for quick chat
The shoutbox on the home page is a live chat for members with a confirmed email. Keep it friendly and quick.
1. All forum rules apply in the shoutbox too.
2. No spam, flooding or posting the same message over and over.
3. No links to scams, other servers or anything unsafe.
4. Don't use the shoutbox to argue with staff. Use [url=/forum/c/contact-staff]Contact Staff[/url] instead.
5. Whispers (`/w @user message`) are private, but they still follow the rules.

### Handy commands
- `/me waves` shows an action.
- `/w @username hello` sends a whisper.
- `:fire:` and other shortcodes become emoji.
[warn]
Staff can mute members from the shoutbox, from a few minutes up to permanently. Mutes are logged.
