    Click the “Privacy” tab to access permissions and preferences for users accessing your profile and chat room.
    • Allowing everyone to comment on your chat room will provide incentive for them to contribute to the room. The other options may discourage individuals from joining the conversation and may limit the popularity of your chat room.

    • Select the “Yes, allow guests to join chat” option. Not selecting this option will severely limit your chat room’s ability to become popular.

    • If you set the “List in Directory?” and “Show Activity?” options to “Yes…” this will allow your chat room to show up in the public directory and allow other users to find and follow your profile and room.

    • Click the “Update” button to save your changes.
