How do I join a chat group?

(example 1) Left for iOS, right for Android.

To join a chat group, tap the "Groups" icon (example 1) and switch between the "Featured" and "Popular" tabs to find a group that you may like. If you have a specific group in mind, or specific topic you can also tap the magnifying glass at the top left to search for a group.

How do I find other people to chat to?

To find other people to chat to, tap the "Groups" icon (example 1) and navigate the various sections to find a chat that appeals to you.

If you do not find anything, you can also search by tapping the magnifying glass icon at the top left and entering a keyword related to what kind of groups you are looking for.

How do I send a message?

(example 2) Left for iOS, right for Android.

After you've joined a group, you will be taken back to the "Chats" tab (example 2) where you can tap the chat you just joined to open the group interface. To send a message, tap the gray input box at the bottom of the screen and type out your message and tap the "return" key to send it.

How do I know if I've been kicked or banned?

If you were kicked, you will see a message displaying that you have been kicked, along with a message explaining why. You will also be signed out of the chat and unable to connect unless you navigate to the "Chats" tab (example 2), tap "Edit" at the top right and remove the chat and re-add it via the "Groups" tab (example 1).

If you were banned, you will see a message stating that you have been banned for a number of hours with a message explaining why. You will be unable to type in main chat and unable to private message or private chat users who do not have you added as a friend. On mobile, you will still see your messages in main chat, however other users will not.

If you believe you were banned or kicked unfairly, you may report it to a user of a higher rank, or to the main owner. If no action is taken then the higher ranked user probably agrees with the punishment and you will have to accept and learn from it, or wait out your ban time respectively.
