Chat
Here's how we keep our chatroom rocking and rolling:
"'Invitation Vibes'": Join our chatroom only after you've hit the streets with us. It's for those who keep their wheels spinning actively. If you ghost or go inactive for a long time, you may be forgotten during the group and account maintenance cyclic routine.
App Choice
We know how much you value your privacy, and we've gone with Signal-app because it rocks; you do not even need to share your phone number, email, real name or other personal information, and it is cross-platform, focuses on being non-profit, e2e encrypted, private, secure, free, and open-source, and steers clear of social media tracking. Stay connected whether you're on desktop or mobile – the app links up both!
Objectives
- Gear up and get ready for events and meetups
- For our Bladers who are out there skating
- Live gps updates on our skating spots using hauk
- Strengthen our squad and share all things skating: news, tips, pics, and videos
- Plus, don't miss out on exclusive giveaways and personal trades!
- "'No random invites'": Keep our group tight and don't split us up with off-the-cuff skate sesh invites.
Off Topic
Got something that's not about skating? Keep it chill and chat privately with those involved.
Events
Always sync up with our official calendar and event invites. Got questions? Hit up the organizers for the scoop.
Flood
Keep the chat clean! Chat directly to someone if it's just for them, unless it's juicy news for everyone. Aim to keep public posts general and feedback or chats private.
Deals
Sling your skate gear, trades, or giveaways in the group, but take private talks off the public thread. Please clean up after your deal to keep our chat neat.
Try not to send too many small messages – bundle them up into one big update when possible so no one loses the context of your message.
Got a novel to share? Use a "Pastebin" service like privatebin, privatepaste, or defuse and drop the link in the chat.
Business
We all know shops with both rad and bad vibes. Feel free to share your recs or rants, but please keep it clean.
"'Sponsorship Shifts'": If we ever get sponsored, we'll revisit and possibly revamp these guidelines.
