a couple of pointers on using chatango-
if you have an account with another chatango site like TUTN with Kenny Pick use that to log in. otherwise create an account, that will give you options as far as font size, colour etc. if it says "name already in use" you may have an account you've forgotten about so ask them to reset your password
once you're in, if you could change your font
size to 14 (lower right corner, either the number or the A to the left of the smiley. you need
to be logged in to chatango, not a guest) it makes reading the chat
easier
you can get extra emoticons, font options and backgrounds if you contribute to chatango, starting at US$1.50 a month
the clicking sound when someone posts can be turned off by clicking the speaker icon at the bottom of the screen
general chatroom etiquette applies- no shouting (all caps*,) no personal insults, be nice. if you think there's a troll please alert one of the main mods (me, RadioGuyChris, SueInRockville, RockyMountainMike)
*caps can be used once or twice per post, but will be deleted if more than that or if the post is all caps
from the official http://www.stephaniemiller.com/faq/live-blog-faq/ chat rules:
Because a diversity of opinions are encouraged, we never censor comments based on political beliefs. Of course, we want an open exchange of ideas so the only postings that would be removed are those which contain:
• abusive, off-topic, or use foul language
• comments that celebrate the death or illness of any person, public figure or otherwise
• contain racist, sexist, homophobic and other slurs (including religious)
• solicitations or advertising for personal blogs and website

also, insulting the trans or intersexed members of our community by comparing them to the Coultergeist will not be tolerated
