Shoutbox Rules

The rules for using the shoutbox are mostly the same as our general forum rules, with a few additions. Our moderators will monitor the shoutbox and can edit/delete shouts and take further action against rule breakers if necessary.

Things not to do:

- Don't abuse other members, including any racist, sexist or hateful remarks.
- No swearing.
- Don't make negative statements about other artists or their fans.
- Don't spread negative rumors.
- Don't respond to antis if they appear. Just ignore them and alert a moderator.
- Don't spam the sbox. No member should need to have more than 5 shouts in a row.
- Don't advertise other sites.
- Don't post download links for any of IU's official releases (including albums, digital singles and OST tracks).
- Don't post direct download links to anything from our restricted video/audio forums. Link to topics only.
- Don't talk about inappropriate topics - remember there are minors on the site. Keep it family-friendly.
- No personal information, relating to yourself or anyone else, should be posted on the sbox. This includes real names, addresses, phone numbers, photos etc.
- Don't do anything illegal, which includes linking to downloads of copyrighted material (including torrents).
- Don't ask other members on the sbox to do anything which would break any of these rules.

And these are things you should do:

- Talk in English or Korean.
- Be friendly!
- Try to include everyone. Take personal conversations elsewhere (e.g. PM, instant messengers), the sbox is for general chat.
- Welcome new members and help them to find their way around the site.
- Listen to WeheartIU staff and follow any instructions they give (e.g. to change the topic of conversation).
- Share the IU love!
