Talking About Chatroom Rules Ban Lengths....

                We have gone a little ban happy recent with the trolls and we needed to remove em. However we had no real guidelines and both Chris and I came up with the chat rules and we are going to be adding times to the bans and here they are:

Rules:

1. No spamming the chatroom.  (6 hour ban)

2. No being disrespectful to Staff or Any Other User In the Chatroom. (12 hour ban, if use of offensive terms will be permanent ban from chat and not able to return)

3. No asking for Moderator, we have enough Staff to keep an eye on things. (Chat message removed & warning. 1 hour ban if continues)

4. No posting inappropriate links is allowed. (24 hour ban, if continues, Perma Ban as this will not be allowed whatsoever)

                Rules are not hard to find and there is only 4 golden rules to follow and so easy to follow. We only perma ban from here on out on severe infractions of the rules. We have the most conservative rules out of any other chatroom. Right now we are not making mods till the chatroom is active but the bans are very reasonable times. Please follow our rules it is not that hard. You guys wonder why we have removed our chat off the website so much is because of the chat problems. Chris also mentioned if the trolls get too much for us then what we can do is not allow guest chat and we will implement that you sign up with http://www.chatango.com/ and we will not be allowing guests in our Community Lounge from here on out. We have a lot of tools with this chat we have on the site and one of em we even do not allow VPNS cause it would be easy for trolls to get back into the chatroom so that has already been implemented! That is everything I have to say about the rules in our chatroom please follow em so we can keep guest chat open and I will speak to you guys Monday, have a wonderful weekend!

Lots of Positive Feedback for the CBOTW Community

               This is why I love this community such a positive feedback with the community recently, especially when it comes to the Community Lounge that you guys have had for the past week and a half and I am so glad it came back as there has been a lot of great feedback and questions. Yeah there has been that one troll coming after me when I wasn't even paying attention to the chatroom on the website half the time as I have been swamped with notes and podcast stuff lately but as I have admitted on Twitter I do ghost or lurk the website Community Lounge most of the time, I am just not logged in. However I see the love and support you guys are giving me  That is besides the point but I love the feedback not just seeing messages in the chat but also social media and love hearing such positive feedback.

                You guys help me out with any of the changes that needs to be done especially when it comes to the website and we hear you and will fix the bugs within the website as recently we had to push an update for the "Everything About Reality TV" Podcast page. Charlotte found a bug within the code on the website Archives for that Podcast. This is why I love the community and I know you complain something is "broken" and we will get to it as we have so many other projects on the go right now but we hear you and we also make a list of things we have to "fix" within the website. There will always be some kind of bug within the website and we will get to it and suggestion is to send us a screenshot of the issue so we know what the issue is. However, Billy, Larry, Charlotte and I thank you for the continuous support and keeping your suggestions, ideas and questions in a positive matter and this is what we want is a positive, clean website.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Community Lounge Opens Monday!

      I know surprise! I am making a mid week appearence and Chris already knows about it and says it's fine and gives him the day to work on the collab podcast with the editing this gives him the day free as it takes him sometimes 45 minutes to complete a post in the day when he could be editing the podcast. Anyways we are proud to say, we are launching the chat as of today. That's right, Chris messaged me this morning letting me know that as of 9 am EST Monday the Community Lounge will be open for business! As you know we have had our share of issues this week including last weekend and we were all set for launching the chat 2 days ago but we have had to put it on hold temporarily but he has made it OFFICIAL today that we will be going ahead with the launch of the Community Lounge as of Monday. So you will not be seeing this in an update. Just hope there will be no more issues around the website that will prevent us from launching the Community Lounge. What will be in thsi Lounge? You will see a chatroom where you guys will be able to talk and interact with Chris and his Management Team which I am a part of. This chatroom has been set and ready to go for days and sits there empty with just Chris and I doing the final touches to the chat especially. 

               You are wondering why Monday @ 9 am EST well that was Chris's decision to open it early in the day so everyone gets a chance to pop in to the page and it is bright and early in the day. You never know, Chris may be lurking in chat and if you guys pop in and yes guest chat will be open so everyone can participate. There are a few rules and they are: 1. No spamming; 2. NO posting links. Please ask a member of Staff or the Moderator Team; 3. NO being disrespectful of any kind; 4. NO asking for Mod, must earn the trust of Chris and the members of the Management Team Staff; 5. NO religion or politics talk is allowed. We do not want to have an argument happen in chat. Those are 5 simple rules to follow. Now one last thing Chris detailed to me this morning if the guest chat gets too abused with trolls, we will shutdown guest chat where you have to login. However, we are looking forward to this Community Lounge opening on Monday and be sure to be on the lookout for an official launch post on Social Media!

Let's Try This Chat Thing Yet Again! SMH!

           This was all Chris's idea in the way of chat of returning to the website and I had a couple of ideas which I will not get into as we're in the early stages of the chat's return and we do not want to rush it. However it is back up and running and yes guest chat is an option for right now but if the spam and disrespect returns then we will be locking down the chat once again and we are not afraid to do that whatsoever.  There is no holding back and we wanna grow the website and build this community. This is one of the reasons we brought it back was to start growing the community and the website. Now the views are up this is a great time to expand on the website so we made a few tweaks to the menu bar and the About is under it's own drop down menu to make way for the chatroom which was released right away.

           The chatroom can be found on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com/p/community.html and staff is around typically during the daytime but sometimes we will hide out in the chatroom from time to time but depends if we are awake we may answer but keep checking back in our community chat. We hope one of these days if we can get the chat really busy that we can start doing Community Nights on our chatroom but that is part of Phase 3 of the plan as we are only in Phase 1 which is growing the community. We also will be looking for Moderators but in due time. The Only Moderator we have right now is LarryR82 as he is a former staff member of The Video Projects Team and ChrisBOnTheWeb and he has Moderator status on our chatroom and is around when he can be on. Let's regrow this community and grow this website even further!

When Is Chris Set To Return To Blogging?

              So there has been questions to when the boss man aka Chris is to return to blogging and the online life. Well good news is he is set to return on Monday, yes this Monday he is coming back after weeks of being off from social media and being sequestered in the studio working on Power Rangers Podcast for the past week, week and a half to 2 weeks. So Monday, you will be seeing a different name on the blog for once and don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed my time writing to you guys on a regular basis but it is time for the boss talk to you guys. I am going nowhere, will still be active in chat during the week, answering messages from you guys on Social so you will still see me around and whatever he needs, I will do for him. What is he going to be talking about well, I am guessing he will be updating what he's been up to over the past week or so and when we know and he will give you guys his insight on Big Brother 22 this season since Everything About Reality TV Podcast is ending and he is excited to be returning finally. Hopefully he will be back for good and he won't disappear. I do not know if he will be active on the chatroom and active that I couldn't tell you guys really.

              So you will be hearing from me on a weekly basis as Chris blogs 6 days a week and I am back to weekly posts again but I am always around to fill in. However I am sure you guys are sick of hearing from me but I am always a team player to help him and the team out. It is long coming for the return of the boss man, it has been very quiet without him on the website blog, chat and socials. However, Chris has been sneaky and went on to say hey to you guys from time to time but most posts are from me but you will be hearing a ton more from him and he has great topics to talk about and he has even has 2 on the list already plus whatever is on the board in his studio so he has things all set up for the next week already which is awesome he has content for you guy one way or another.

ChrisBOnTheWeb Updates for 06-28-2020

                This is our last update for the month of June as we're heading into the month of July already. So there has been a lot of issues around our community and drama which mind you is unacceptable but I will talk about it in today's post.

Everything About Reality TV-  Only thing we can tell you as we are hiring for Amazing Race and Amazing Race Canada and other show which you can apply by going here:
https://form.jotform.com/201782407842052 Also boss man Chris recorded the Tough As Nails Preview and doesn't feel too confident on it but time will tell if we get listeners for this show. He feels like he's taking a big risk or gamble but that is how he is.

Website- There was so much drama here on the website which mind you is unacceptable. Disrespect towards me or Chris or the rest of the team will not be tolerated whatsoever. We had to ban our first individual which we do not wanna ban too much but rules are rules and inexcusable for not following our terms or guidelines.  We also have decided to permanently remove chats from the website due to drama so there will be no chat on the website from here on out. We're trying to simplify things for not just us but Chris as well.

The CBOTW Show- Only thing I can say is feeds are now active and Chris is working on Wild Force and hopes to finish it next week so he can type up notes and record with Larry.

               Not much in updates this week, just the usual and most updates are about the website itself but right now not much to report back to you guys on with the website at this point really. It has been very quiet recently, especially around CBOTW HQ, I'm sure.  I'm sure if there's updates he will be sure to let us know but for the most part nothing to really say elsewhere on what I said and I will talk to you guys next week.

We Have And Adding Chats To ChrisBOnTheWeb.com!

                 Chris gave me the green light to write this post for today's post. As you can see we have been busy around the website as we have been coding our eyes out yesterday which now looks really amazing to be honest! We have been always looking to add new features to the website and yes we had a chatroom on our website at one point but was shutdown due to spam and hate but we realize with this chat when someone is banned, nobody in particular but it's an IP ban. The Community Chat is up and active here on the website and we're around the website if you wanna chat but I am happy to say you guys got a place to go and chat and hangout with everyone else in the community. Only thing is getting it used but we will be leaving it up on a 6 months basis and if it doesn't work out then we will remove them but I am sure we will have a few people here and there. You guys have to realize this was just launched 24 hours ago and we are getting views on the page so that is good. We're around if you wanna talk. Now we have added a few rules to the list and we wanna focus on just chatting with you guys and leaving help to our E-Mail or contact page on our website.  

                 Now to the second "Chat" page it is ready to go but not released as of yet. We are waiting for the Big Brother season to be officially release a date to when the season is going to be starting. It is actually on the website itself just not visible at this time but it is going to come. This Big Brother Lounge will also be the official Chat for Big Brother Canada whenever they decide to renew the season. Chris or myself will update you when things go live but for right now we are sitting on this extra chatroom for right now but we're excited. One final thing I wanted mention is we are working on fixing the drop down and trying to come up with a fix for it as right now the darn thing is a horizontal drop down but we are researching how to fix that so it is what we are working on is to fix the drop down under "Chats" as I said it is the wrong way that we want it to be.

Chatroom Has Returned On The Website!

                 For those who didn't notice a chat tab appeared on my website and yes I brought it back as I want to grow the website further and I decided it is time to bring this feature back. Now I have Billy and Larry as moderators on the chat and there and I believe one other person. I will not be pulling it off the website this time, I promise you guys this. There is rules to follow which as follows:

1. No spamming the chatroom.

2. No being disrespectful to Staff, Moderators and other users in the chatroom, including racial slurs or homophobic remarks.

3. You can post links but no porn links are allowed.


4. No asking for mod, must earn it.


                 So please do follow them and also you have to login this is due to trolls in the past and you will be banned and will not be allowed back as we are not going to be fooling around this time. This is a place to hangout and chillout and there is absolutely not tolerance for drama as we have had to deal with quite a lot in the past week and we are just sick of this toxicity and we are trying to keep social and chat and comments a happy place to be in. Anyways you guys can find the Lounge Chat under the chat tab or at: https://www.chrisbontheweb.com/p/chat.html which I am sure one of our team members is always around to chat with you guys. We are a welcoming and positive community and want to keep this place a safe and happy space to be in. So I encourage you guys to to come check it out, sign up with a name and have a fun conversation in the chat.
