[edit] Wardens on the chat

Wardens take care of the chat. There are more types of wardens and everyone has another rights. We bring you a short overview.

• temporary room warden - is listed on the top of the room. Looks that nobody violates our chat rules. He can kick users and give his function to another user.
• permanent room warden - is warden of the selected room whenever he/she enters. He has the right to kick users, check the temporary warden and his performance, if not handling properly he can give wardenship to another user.
• permanent chat warden - is the same as permanent room warden, only in all rooms. He has additional the right to delete temporary rooms. If he/she kicks someone than he can chose either from one or from all rooms.
• main chat warden (popularly admin) - can kick the permanent chat admin :-).

Aktual rules you can find here.

[edit] Whispering

You can whisper either by selecting user from the drop.down menu on chat or by typing : /s nick some_text, it´s the same. If you will whisper you will bypass the filters that filter forbidden words.

[edit] Webcams

We started webcams in spring 2007. 98% of users do not have any troubles or problems with it. But however this is the most difficult service we offer and we will tune it a long time.

It can happen that the webcam was not correctly recognized although it works in other applications like Skype. It is easy, you only need to set up the correct Cam while right-clicking the FLASH component and selecting Settings.... Chose the Tab with Webcam picture and select the correct Webcam from the drop-down list.

[edit] Hints and tips

If you want to write to a user and dont want to type his/her nickname again and again just type first letter of his nickname and press TAB.
