Chat Room Etiquette
By Erick Shipmon
Another piece of online dating advice written
about a lot is chat room etiquette, how to
behave while online in a chat room and how
to use the room wisely, not giving out any
bits of information about yourself which could
be used to find you outside of cyber space,
etc.
While most of this advice can be taken by
anyone, there are some bits of chat room etiquette
that are specific to online dating sites,
where the objective is to eventually meet
someone in the real world.
In other online chat sites, a crazy
or funky screen name may be funny, but
in an online dating service, you had better
be careful which screen name you choose.
Trying to get a date with a vulgar screen
name won't cut it, you'll probably get
insulted out of the room, or the system
operators could expel you from the member's
only site.
Unless you are in a chat room which only
accepts caps, do not type in all caps,
this is considered shouting. Also, refrain
from using wild, off color (like yellow)
or hard to read font. Other users will
not take you seriously, remember, you
are in an online adult dating website,
not one of your gaming sites.
It is also considered rude to try to
engage someone in cyber sex while in an
adult dating chat room, unless you're
a member of one of the many cyber sex
specific websites. A regular singles online
getting to know you chat room will not
allow cyber sex, and you could be censured
or kicked out, so find out the rules of
the dating online chat room that you are
in before propositioning anyone.
Online chat room dating tip number two,
is be nice to newcomers. Just as if you
were invited to a party at a person's
house whom you had never met, think of
how the new person feels trying out an
online adult dating site for the first
time. Introduce them around and be friendly.
Keep online with these etiquette tips
and some one will notice you!
