Dear Passengers,
After much discussion we have decided to slightly amend the rules of the Adult rooms to ensure a good chatting experience for everyone.
There used to be three decks on the lift that were, by large, for adults. This meant that chatters trying to work out the rules in each of these decks was quite impossible. Recently however we reduced the amount of decks we have in the lift and now simply have the Adult Deck which houses the adult rooms.
By it's very name, every room on this deck is limited to aged 16 and above, or aged 18 and above. The only users that can access these rooms are those that have confirmed their date of birth when signing up to the chat, therefore the risk of younger chatters entering is next to none. That being the case, the rules across all rooms on the Adult Deck are being relaxed.
The internet is a busy and lively place and whilst the chat prides itself on being suitable for chatters above the age of 10 with supervision, we also need to make sure we are catering for the needs of the majority of our users, adults.
From now on the guidelines for the adult rooms are as follows:
- Moderate swearing is acceptable.
- Adult themed chat and inuendos are acceptable.
- Very explicit adult chat is not permitted unless between consenting adults in private message (or private cabins).
- Persistent and prolonged explicit requests will not be allowed.
- Abusive, racist, homophobic, bullying, strong swearing or anything illegal will still of course, not be accepted.
The chat has automated systems to detect any inappropriate activity and these methods work very well to catch anything extreme or illegal, please be very much assured that this work and detection will not stop or be relaxed.
The pure basis for this relaxation is to allow the adult rooms to be just that, for adults, to be treated like adults. We know adults swear, and we know adults use dirty chat.... if you want to do this, go to an adult room. Any other room on the ship will have the normal rules applied so that all chat and conversation is suitable for young chatters too. Adult themed chat in any room but an adult room will be dealt with robustly.
We hope you enjoy the relaxed rules.
Regards,
ChatTeam
