User blog comment:HermesDude/Chat Rule Request: No edits, No service - Declined/@comment-1732082-20120101185031

I don't agree with this idea. Sometimes I see new users enter chat before editing to get to know the wiki. I think chat is a great place to show people the rules and invite them to the wiki. Also, if we get help from users from other wikis they will not have enough edits.
