We have developed these rules and guidelines to help our users in their online chat experience at Soteria Chat.
Soteria Adult Chat Room Rules
All rules must be followed, there are no exceptions. Rules are site-wide and apply to all users and chat rooms, whether site or user-owned, public and private.. Failure to do so, will result in administrator/moderator action, including but not limited to warnings, mutes, kicks, and bans.
- This site is for adults only. You must be at least 21 to chat and participate here.
- This is an English-only site, meaning English must be spoken and written sitewide. This rule includes music, posts, voice clips, videos, captions, etc. (Unless specified otherwise and approved by the site.)
- Play/discussion of incest, bestiality, underage play, rape/forced sex, or anything else illegal is not allowed here. Do not post pictures, gifs, videos, or audio of children under any circumstances, regardless of content. Do not use the words teen(s), girl(s), boy(s), and/or younger without the clarification of 18+. This rule applies to text, pictures, and gifs (including the text on those), profiles (text, images, and sounds).
- Do not spam. Do not post links to other chat sites, or try to coerce users to other sites.
- Do not solicit, this includes but is not limited to asking for or offering: money, gift cards, wishlists, sexual favors, photos, personal information, or illegal activity of any kind.
- Respect all users. No homophobia, racism, slurs, demeaning comments, cyberbullying, personal attacks, stalking, or harassment of any nature for any reason will be tolerated.
- Any attempt to impersonate a user or staff member, access their account, or create an account with the intent to harass another member will not be tolerated.
- If you have been banned or kicked from a room, or site, do not make another account to return to the site. This could result in an extension on your ban or a lifetime site ban and we will not consider your appeal. To appeal a site ban or kick, please see this page for more information.
- Respect our staff, moderators, administrators, and owners. We are regular people who like to have a good time as well. However, we do not have to explain or justify any actions taken to keep the site safe and running smoothly. All appeals to moderator and administrative actions must be done through the appeals process as outlined here. We have the site and the users’ best interests in mind and are dedicated to making and keeping Soteria a safe, pleasurable place for everyone.
Site Guidelines and Good Practices
The following are not rules, but suggestions to ensure your chat experience with us is safe, fun, and enjoyable.
- Ask permission before PMing (private messaging) anyone. Some rooms may have rules against this. Those rules must be followed within that room.
- If you are receiving unwanted PMs or if you simply are annoyed by, or do not like someone, use the “ignore” feature. Staff will rarely get involved in personal disputes. We are all adults here and personal spats need to be dealt with maturely. If you are being harassed, or abused in any way or are afraid for your safety, please report those incidents via our report option, and a staff member will be notified of any reported pm or room post and be able to address and take action ASAP.
- Check the “topic” banner when entering a room. Non-site rooms may set their own rules within site guidelines and those rules must be followed within that room.
- As with any online experience, keep your personal information private. DO NOT give out real information, names, passwords, phone numbers, social media, photos, emails, etc. Soteria is not responsible for, or the result of, any information you willingly give to other users.
- Don’t engage in gossip, drama, spats, retaliation, bullying, or any behavior of that nature.
- Read a person’s profile to learn more about them, and add your interests to yours so they can do the same.
- If you need more clarification or translation or do not understand these rules and practices, please see a site administrator to clarify.
All rules and guidelines are subject to change without notice.
