Things That Are Not Okay; These things are the opposite of okay. Doing them gets you a lot more than frowny faces.

ITEM NUMERO UNO: This kind of talk is not okay, even if we have a side-chat for political bullshit. Names have been censored to protect the guilty innocent. No disciplinary action has been done, but there will be disciplinary action if it happens again, with anyone~<3
So like, don't. Just don't.
Chat excerpt thingie 14:22<Person Number A>I see just as much delusion and fanaticism than in religious extremisms 14:22<Person Letter 1>That you know. In <country that is not mine> 14:22<Person Number A>the important thing is how they ACT on these delutions but 14:22<Person Letter 1>There really isn't an extreme left wing in America. 14:22<Person Number A>hahahaha 14:22<Person Number A>I see the same thing on americans websites 14:23<Person Number A>demonizations 14:23<Person Number A>self-righteousness 14:23<Person Letter 1>Yeah, see 14:23<Person Letter 1>you say that 14:23<Person Number A>rhetorical tricks 14:23<Person Letter 1>but maybe sometimes they're actually right about what horrible shits these people actually are 14:23<Person Number A>every stopped closk is right twice a day 14:24<Person Letter 1>Of course, I already knew that you preferred your own opinion to that of people who actually live in the relevant country. 14:24<Person Number A>everyone prefers his own opinion 14:25<Person Number A>and just because you live somewhere doesn't mean you got the best possible viewpoint 14:25<Person Number A>but yeah, right 14:25<Person Number A>get pissed that I don't just nod along to whatever you say 14:26<Person Number A>I dislike people who always expect a cooperative audience 14:27<Person Letter 1>As someone who actually does something in the American Political process besides reading online reports from across the Atlantic, it's true that I get a little irritated at being called self-righteous by someone as smug and sanctimonious as I'm capable of being. 14:27<Person Letter 1>So in that respect, I guess we are very much alike. 14:28<Person Number A>my intention is not to be smug and sanctimonious 14:28<Person Number A>yes, I do read political reports 14:28<Person Number A>quite a lot of them in fact 14:28<Person Number A>reports who source actual /facts/ and /statistics/ 14:29<Person Number A>my aim being to have a somewhat /objective/ view of the thing
To be specific, the problem with this isn't even the subject matter! Although I'm a bit dicey on the whole "your opinion is closer to invalid than mine is because you're out there and I'm in here" line of logic. The problem is the insults, insults, insults. Insults are not okay. If things are getting hostile between members of the chat, any chat, fucking cut that shit out, go cool your fucking heads in a bucket of ice water, and just don't do it. Do not, don't ever, never ever, are we fabula nova crystallis on that one? I don't think I'm being FF13 levels of incomprehensible here. Being in a side channel may give you leave to vent or speak on more uncomfortable matters that aren't kosher in the main chat, but it doesn't magically make things border-free.
Good? Good. Go back to your adventurous adolescent psychodrama, message delivered and hopefully received.

ITEM NUMERO DOS: Graphic depictions or rape or rape murders are definitely not okay. Aside from being generally completely unnecessary and edgy for the sake of edgy, it's that kind of boundary you just can't cross without sort of you know, breaking the Zetaboards TOS. While the subject of rape isn't a taboo topic, it should be treated with caution and for the most part never depicted in the sense of actually happening in a post. For one thing, it's a pretty obvious potential trigger issue. As a rule of thumb? If your post reads like a rape hentai, don't, just don't. As another rule of thumb, if you actually have to ask whether or not a post is too obscene, run it by a staff member before you do anything with it.
So yeah.
ITEM NUMERO TRES: Characters whose role, actions, and activities immediately break their own character profiles are not okay. If you're going to have a character that's involved in super shady stuff or outright obscene/2edgy stuff (like the above) from the word "go," your character's profile should make that patently obvious. Your character should also not have access to a gun in his very first post if said weapon is not listed and explained in his application's weapons listing. Evolution of a character, acquiring new things as they go, yeah, yeah, that's all well and good, but if your character doesn't match up to your character application at the time of that character's introduction, that is at worst deliberately misleading the staff. Which is not okay! If there are things you'd prefer to keep secret for spoilery reasons they need to be mentioned to staff in private at the very least.
So yeah.
