Chat Room FAQs
Q: Why was I kicked out of the room? All I said was
does anyone want to chat with a hot girl/boy.
A: aTeenChat is not a dating service nor is it a pickup
site, if you are looking to pick up an online date, please look somewhere
else. We simply will not provide you the means to get yourself killed by
some pervert.
Q: I was banned from aTeenChat, I didn't know the word
I said was not allowed or I did not mean to say what I said?
A: A bad time to read the rules is after you have broken
them, Yes you did mean to say what you said, or you would not have said
it. You are now banned live with it.
Q: I was just banned from aTeenChat for doing
something wrong, how long am I banned for? When can I come back?
A: You are banned until the ban expires, it could be
days, weeks, months, never. Understand that you have already identified
yourself as the type of person we do NOT want in our chat rooms, why
should we be in a hurry to take a ban off for you breaking our rules?

Q: Why does aTeenChat not allow some words that are
allowed by other places?
A: Easy answer: We are not those other places nor do we
attempt to be. Longer Answer: We have placed the most
common used swear words on our restricted list, we stick to this standard
and do not in any way sway from it. At any given time aTeenChat could
have a visitor that is offended by the use of profanity, profanity is not
required to communicate there for we do not think there is a place on chat
for it.

A: Umm NO, if you think it is offensive, play it safe and
just don’t use that word.
