1. Stay Anonymous by Default

Use a nickname—not your real name—and avoid including personal info like:

  • Location (city, neighborhood)

  • School or workplace

  • Social media handles

You’re here to chat, not share your life story.

2. Use the “Block” and “Report” Tools

If someone makes you uncomfortable, is rude, or starts asking weird questions:

  • Block them immediately.

  • Use the report feature to flag their behavior to moderators.

Trust your gut. You don’t owe anyone an explanation.

3. Never Share Private Contact Details

This includes:

  • Phone numbers

  • Email addresses

  • Social media profiles

  • Messaging app usernames (WhatsApp, Snapchat, etc.)

If someone really wants to get to know you, they’ll respect your pace.

4. Avoid Clicking on External Links

If someone sends a link claiming:

  • “This is a funny video!”

  • “Check out my photos”

  • Or “You won a prize!”

Don’t click. These links could lead to phishing scams or malware.

5. Don’t Send or Request Personal Photos

Photos can be saved, shared, and misused—even if you trust the person. And asking others for personal pictures is a huge red flag that can get you banned.

6. Be Skeptical of “Too Good to Be True”

Watch out for people who:

  • Quickly become overly friendly or flirty

  • Say they love you after a few chats

  • Claim to be rich, famous, or in trouble

They may be trying to scam or manipulate you.

7. Keep Conversations Public (At First)

Stay in public rooms until you’re confident someone is genuine. Private chats are fine—but only once you feel safe and know how to report bad behavior.

8. Never Send Money or Gifts

Even if someone has a sad story, don’t send anything. Romance scams often start in chat rooms and can lead to big financial losses.

9. Mind What You Say—It's Permanent

Everything you write could be screenshotted or recorded. Avoid:

  • Inappropriate jokes

  • Threats or insults

  • Anything that could be taken the wrong way

If you wouldn’t say it in person, don’t type it here.

10. Log Out When You’re Done

Especially if you're on a shared or public computer, logging out helps protect your privacy and account.

✅ Final Rule: Safety First, Fun Always

Chat rooms can be a great way to meet new people—but only if you stay alert and respect your own boundaries.

Want a safe experience? Stay smart. Stay respectful. Stay in control.
