ABOUT US

BlastChat was founded in 2004 as a simple chat application that could be run on any website. But soon after releasing it we realized that a majority of website community's servers are unable to handle chat traffic. So we decided to change our approach and offer a chat hosting service. For three years BlastChat was completely free, which resulted in overwhelming traffic and demand for support. For this reason, in 2007, we turned into a commercial service. But we still continue to offer free, limited chat hosting.

• All posts must be in English unless posted in a specific international forum. If posting in a international forum, please use the language of that forum, and not English. If international forums does not exist yet, contact us to add it.
• Do not discuss illegal activities. Our server is hosted in the USA and so is subject to the law of the United States. Please do not expose us to any unnecessary legal liability.
• Check that your question has not been answered anywhere else on the site. Use the search feature.
• Post your comment/question to the most appropriate place. Any posts deemed to be in the wrong forum will be moved. Do not cross-post the same question to multiple places.
• Make sure you have read the parent article/post completely before posting a reply.
• Use your own words. If you wish to use the words of somebody else, quote them, citing the source. Plagiarism is unethical and is illegal in many countries.
• Choose an appropriate subject line. Try to summarize the problem briefly in the subject and elaborate in the message itself. Repeat the subject in the body if it will make things clearer. Do not use all caps and do not add false information just to get attention (eg, ;read this or you will be arrested;). An example of a bad subject would be "HELP ME". A good subject might be, "submit message problem".
• Include as much information as you can when seeking help. This may include logs and command line output. Nobody will be able to help you if you dont give sufficient detail (to include your server URL is allowed, unless it links to site with adult content, sexually oriented material, or material that might otherwise be considered offensive).
• No useless posts (eg, one-liners, thread bumping).
• Thank those who help you. Acknowledgement of a helpful suggestion not only placates those who helped you, it may also help others with a similar problem. All those who have been helped on this forum are invited to help other users by responding to their questions when they know the answer and/or to consider donating to the project.
• Do not link to any site that contains adult content, sexually oriented material, or material that might otherwise be considered offensive. Any post containing an inappropriate link will be deleted and the poster will receive a warning.
• Keep all commentary civil, and be courteous at all times. Constructive criticism is welcome, but insults directed toward other users or the site admins will not be tolerated. Coarse/insulting language will not be tolerated.
• No commercial advertising is permitted. Any posts deemed to amount to self-promotion, advertising, or spam can and will be removed. NO SPAM - NO ADVERTISING
• This is not the place to settle a commercial disagreement for custom development, and this is not a wall of shame. Any posts deemed to be of this nature will be removed. Settle your disputes in private, please.
• If you think that a post violates any of these rules, please use the .report to modertor. link to notify the moderators.
