"Invasion in this case would be a relatively huge influx of people in a very short time period, flooding the chat. This is, in my opinion, especially harmful to smaller wikis." Uh, no. An invasion is only when many users go elsewhere with malicious intent to harm the other wiki, either by trolling, vandalising or DDoS'ing the site. A group of users going to another chat for innocent reasons cannot be considered an invasion, as they're doing nothing wrong.

I this rule: all this is going to do is cause people to not go into the chat because they'll be scared that they're going to break a rule just by posting. It's fine to have rules: an excessive number of them stifles the community and makes it unwelcoming to people.
