How to Chat
- To start chatting, enter your user name (any nickname) and click "Connect."
Your user name must be a unique chat user name and is valid for your current chat session.
You may also enter your real name, email address, and a password.
- Chat messages are displayed in the chat message area. To add to the conversation, type
in your message in the text box below the message area. By default your message is sent to
all users. To send a message to a particular user, highlight the user from the users list
on the right, select the 'Private User' radio button and type your message. Everything you
type will remain "private" until you turn 'Private User' off.
- To screen out obnoxious users, highlight the user from the users list on the right. And
select the 'Ignore User' check box.
- To end your chat session, click the 'Log Off' button.
- The 'About' button displays information about ParaChat in the message box.
- The 'Surf!' button opens a new browser and displays the last URL typed in the message
box.
- The 'F.A.Q.' button displays the Chat F.A.Q. in a new browser. The F.A.Q. is the easiest
place to find tech support for ParaChat. If you do not find a solution for your problem in
the F.A.Q., please click on the 'Chat Support' link at the top or the bottom of the page
to report the problem.
