Safety - Click Here
Safe chat in a Christian environment is the goal of
The Christian Chat Net. However. . .
since hosts are not always present, we ask you to be
aware of the risks involved and the safety features we
offer.
1.
Please be careful and discerning. Unless one has been
banned for indecency, anyone with Internet connection
is capable of entering these chat rooms.
2.
Consult a host if someone behaves indecently. Host's
names have a @ in front of their username or nick.
3.
If a host is not present when harassed go to the #help
or #lobby room and find a host by clicking on their
name. Tell the host the problem and ask permission to
paste the content for viewing.
4.
Even a Christian chat room cannot be completely
safe. Though the vast majority of chat conversations
are edifying and Christian, you should not enter these
chat rooms if the risks bother you!
The chat rooms and
message boards are provided as a free service. As
such, there are no guarantees given or implied. Use of
the chat rooms and message boards will be at your own
risk. Your use of the chat rooms constitutes an
agreement that you will not hold The Christian
Chat Net or The Christian BBSor
its affiliates liable for anything said or done in the
service to anyone at anytime, even when chatting is in
progress.
Again, by using these
FREE chat room, you agree that we will not be held
liable in any case and for any reason. You also
agree, that if you do for any reason attempt to take
legal action against The Christian Chat Net,
The Christian BBS or its affiliates, to pay
any lawyer fees and other costs to us regardless of
outcome.
Use of the chat room
signifies that you are in total agreement to the terms
contained here within. If you disagree with any of
these terms, then please do not use the chat rooms or
message boards. If you use the chat room or message
boards and do not agree to these terms The
Christian Chat Net or The Christian BBS will
not be held responsible.
