Hello everyone!<\/p>\n

We hope everyone is staying safe in these very uncertain times. \u00a0 2020 has not been a great year but we still have a few months to make it better.<\/p>\n

Today, we will be discussing an issue that seems to bring a lot of uncertainty amongst our users. \u00a0 We will go a little more in depth with this topic.<\/p>\n

It says that I have been banned from the chat room. \u00a0What is a ban?<\/h2>\n

A ban from the chat room simply means that you are blocked from accessing the chat room. \u00a0 \u00a0This is the most severe of “punishment” that we can administer upon users.<\/p>\n

What are the reasons for being banned?<\/h2>\n

You have violated a rule of our chat rooms. \u00a0 The number one reason that we have observed would be spamming other websites. \u00a0 \u00a0We have a zero tolerance policy regarding web spam. \u00a0Our website has worked very hard over the past 20+ years in establishing itself as one of the top chat websites that has ever existed. \u00a0 We worked hard for that. \u00a0We do not appreciate people trying to steal this hard work by spamming for users to visit their websites or affiliate links. \u00a0You will be banned if you do so. \u00a0 If you spam social media accounts it is possible you may only receive a warning, mute or kick. \u00a0However, it is in our sole discretion whether or not it was an innocent mistake or one which is deliberately done to steal traffic.<\/p>\n

Other reasons can include:<\/p>\n
