CHAT RULES
Be respectful of everyone in the chat - No harassment, bullying, name-calling, call-outs, dragging, etc. will be tolerated.
THIS IS A SFW AUCTION CHAT - NO NSFW chatter, images, or stickers please.
Do not argue with the owner or moderators of the auction chat, and do not block them.
No advertising - this is an auction chat for one purpose and one purpose only: auctioning pins already noted. If there is trade/sale interest during the course of discussion, please continue the sale or trade in DMs.
Please no chatter DURING a live auction. Chatter is allowed freely in this chat otherwise.
No egging on, pushing, or jeering on bidders. On the same note, do not suppress, guilt, or smother bidders or pit them against each other.
Do not egg on, push, guilt trip, etc hosts or potential hosts regarding starting bid prices. This includes lamenting one's ability to afford the auctioned pins.
No spamming - this includes stickers, images, AAAHing or AWOOing.
Begging or asking others to bid for you, even jokingly, is not allowed.
Proxy bidding is not allowed. This includes scheduled bids.
Piggybacking is NOT allowed in the chat. This includes asking hosts about their pins after a closed auction and posting your same pins for sale. Please take your DMs and non-Auction House sales to other spaces.
Bid retraction is not allowed and results in an automatic strike.
