Coffee House

Coffee House
The Coffee House is a gathering for Roto X members where they can just chat with each other. As well as the basic Coffee House, Coffee House 2 and 3 can be found on your navigation bar to the left. Coffee House 2 auto-refreshes so that you always see messages quickly, and 3 is a Java applet that is more like a regular chat room. All three Coffee Houses can see everyone else's messages, however.

I personally prefer to use the link on the left and use the pop-up chat room. Using this feature is very easy, but since most of the cmmands have to be put in manually by the users, it can be overwhelming at time. Most emoticons that are frequently use work. If you would like to change the default color of you text, simply type " /default [color] " in the blank text box. Instead of using brackets and the word "color," you would type the color that you like. Also, the quotes are not used. An example of what this would look like is /default orange. (Note: this only works for the CH that is accessed from the side navigation bar.)

To use emotes, or act out specific actions, you can either type /emote slaps self or /me slaps self. The result will appear as *crystenah slaps self* in the chat room.

If you would like to turn the timestamps either on or off, type /timestamp.

If you would like to have the CH autorefresh, type /autorefresh 15 or however many seconds you would like to have between each refresh.

If you have autorefresh on and would like to pause it until you decide to refresh it again, simply type /pause into the text box. You must press "enter" after each of these cmmands for them to take effect.

Finally, for those who are fans of the term "pwned," if you type Pwned into the text box and hit enter, a more stylish version of the word will appear. You must use a capital "P" for this to work though.

Please refer to the Roto X Terms of Service (Communications section 2.1.c and 2.1.d) regarding prohibited behaviour and/or words. There are staff members called Overseers who regularly read through the chat logs to ensure that all members of the Roto X community are abiding by these rules. If you wish to report behaviour that is not allowed, you may go to the Court to do so.
