* If you post a picture of yourself in your profile, keep it clean!
* People may not be who they say they are. Be careful when making new friends online.
* Don't believe everything you read in channels and discussion forums. A little skepticism is healthy.

* If somebody sends you unwanted email through your ChatX profile, and use the "Report to Moderator" function.
* If you're under 18, only use ChatX under adult supervision.
