Policy:Chatroom

The Fanon Warriors is a wiki with many people, and those people are free to edit the ways of the warrior cats and create fanon stories and Clans that include these cats. Therefore, the chat Wikia has implemented creates a way of forwarding that aim and conversing about it. However, certain ground rules have to be established to make sure everyone in The Fanon Warriors has a positive chat experience.
