**Fellowship CHAT Meetings **

Yes, that’s right, you are going to have to go to Meetings. I know you don’t want to go, you’ve got better things to do. But to get into a stable recovery, you have to go.

Recovery is a program where you have to get out of yourself and begin to help others. This is how addicts restore their sense of self-worth. What we cannot do alone we can do together.

Let me give you the facts and let’s see if you can see the importance of attending recovery group meetings:

4% percent of addicts can stop the addiction on their own for the next year.
50% percent of addicts, who go to inpatient or outpatient treatment, can stop the addiction for the next year.
70% percent of addicts who go through treatment and then regularly attend recovery group meetings can stop the addiction for the next year.
90% percent of addicts, who go through treatment, attend recovery group meetings and attend aftercare stay clean and sober for the next year.

If I told you that you had terminal cancer, you would want to know the treatment? If I told you that this treatment was very uncomfortable,would you still be interested? Now lets say that cancer treatment was very uncomfortable for one hour per day, but the people who went to this treatment had a 90% recovery rate. Would you want that treatment? Would you show up even if it hurt?

That’s all I am saying about addiction. Addiction kills 95% of the people who have it. You Need to Maximize your Chances of Recovery in every way possible. You have to be willing to go to any length to recover. You deserve that 90% recovery rate.

That means you have to go to recovery group meetings. Now make up your mind that you are willing to do what you need to do to free yourself from the slavery to this addiction. Make some promises to yourself.

          Rules, rules, rules!!! Don't you just hate rules?

Wouldn't it be just great if everyone on the Internet was so nice that we didn't have to have any rules? Believe me, we wish it was that way too!
 
But, because not everyone is so nice and because we want to provide you with a safer place to chat and Recover, we have to have a few simple chat room rules.

You may have been in other chat rooms on the Internet where they didn't care what you did while you were there. Maybe, there were no rules at all. Well,
FlynnsHope™ is different. We care about your safety and Recovery while in our chat room.


                             
So....What Are The Chat Room Rules?

To help you figure out what is okay and what's not okay to do while you are in  FlynnsHope™ SpeakEasy chat room, we put together a short list of some very specific rules that really are not hard to understand or follow.
If you do not understand any of these rules, ask someone who is sober and not using.. Here's a list of the SpeakEasy Chat Room Rules:

No Flaming: Do not engage or participate in any activities directly or indirectly which harass, threaten, abuse or intimidate other users. In other words, don't be mean to others. The final judgment of what is ruled to be "flaming" is at the sole discretion of FlynnsHope , Another Anonymous Alcoholic™  Team.

No Offensive Language: This is an adult sight and 'colourful" language is allowed within reason. However, explicitly violent talk, fights, racist language, or other abusive language is not allowed. The final judgment of what is ruled to be  inappropriate  is at the sole discretion of Flynnshope™ and the Another Anonymous Alcoholic™  Team.

No Flooding: Do not rapidly enter text/or images that tend to occupy multiple lines of the message screen. When this is done it keeps other chatters from being able to post messages. It is very rude and disrupts the flow of chat in the chat room.

Perhaps the most important rule of all is a rule you have probably already heard of: Treat all others in the chat room the same way you would want them to treat you. Follow this
"Golden Rule" and you are sure to find helpful Recovery suggestions.

                                             
Simple Huh

                      What Happens When Rules Are Broken?


When a chat room rule is broken, First a Warning to stopis given: In most cases, you are given a warning to stop violating the rule. How many warnings you get is left up to FlynnsHope and Another Anonymous Alcoholic™  Team, so you may get one warning, get up to three warnings. Usually the number of warnings has to do with the severity,
for those of you still drinking or using that means (how bad) the offense was.  In general, the purpose of a warning is to tell you to stop breaking the rule or you will get "booted" ,ejected or kicked out from the room. However,  if the offense is deemed to be serious enough on the first incident you may not ever get a warning.
