Chat help

Chat rooms allow you to talk directly with other people - you can have private conversations or public discussions with members all around the world without having to pay international phone charges.

The Chat channel is where it all happens. If you go there, you'll see a vast selection of chat rooms (online meeting places), each devoted to a particular topic. Once you've chosen a chat room you like the look of, you can start chatting.

There will probably be several other people in the room already, and what they're saying will appear as lines of text on your screen. You can just sit and watch, or join in the conversation by typing what you want to say and clicking the Send button. Everyone else in the room will see what you've said, they'll type something else in reply... and so on. It's that simple!
