What Mr. 414 said was right, we should link the rules of the chat once more for neophytes to this wiki. Leaving a pointless one-liner (that isn't even all that funny to begin with), is only shows two things: puerileity and unfriendliness.

The humor found in it is tasteless at best, and it displays an unwelcomeness to the chat. We are supposed to greet new users with proper etiquette. Reading something as crude as what I have seen just isn't decent. We cannot just assume no one clicks it or doesn't read the rules. If that were the case, we wouldn't have moderators or administrators appointed now, would we.

Once more, please remove those ridiculous sentences and re-insert the chat rules. It would give us a much more respectable image and offer guidance to tyros of the chat. For starters, humor is subjective and can't just be labeled as something defined. Secondly, I think it would really show a more respectable image if we keep the one-liners. It's showing the more random side of chat, and what you should expect from coming here. I think the worst things is when a chat leads false promises and tries to be more mature when it clearly is not. Thirdly, people still won't find the rules link helpful as few people even notice it or let alone actually get the rules from there. They either get it from a mod or just don't even bother to read the rules in the first place. I mean sure, a joke or a one-liner isn't the best but it is better than just having a blank header.
