Tips for Safe Chatting
Don’t chat about things that could enable a stranger to locate you. That includes your last name, the name of your school or workplace, the city you live in, and where you hang out.
Protect your info. Don’t put identifiable information in your user profile, including photos. What's uploaded to the Internet can be downloaded and shared by everyone. Avoid posting photos that allow people to identify you, especially sexually suggestive images. Before uploading a photo, think about how you'd feel if it were seen by a parent, friend, or future employer.
Never meet with someone you encounter in a chat room unless you already know who they are.
Be honest about your age. Aussie Divorce Chat is restricted to users who are 18 years of age or older. If you are too young to sign up, do not attempt to lie about your age. Talk with your parents about alternative sites that may be appropriate for you.
If you have problems with being able to access either of the chatrooms here are some of the possible fixes that have worked for other users.
Make sure your username doesn't contain spaces - "user name" won't work "UserName" will work fine.
