why do people always swear in chat? i find it to be rude. {{<small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:ILoveBeyonceForeverAndEver|ILoveBeyonceForeverAndEver}}]] ([[User talk:ILoveBeyonceForeverAndEver|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/ILoveBeyonceForeverAndEver|contribs]]) (UTC) - Please sign your comments with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></small>
:The ruleset for Chat is loosely based off the ruleset for [[TSW:IRC|IRC]]. Where profanity isn't allowed at all on-wiki, IRC rules are more relaxed on this, and by extension so is Chat, meaning it's allowed on those two mediums ''in moderation''. There's, in my opinion, no point having two different rulesets for both Chat and IRC meaning any changes we make to one should count for the other.

:::If you have a problem with a specific user, then message an [[The Sims Wiki:Administrators|admin]] on their talk page, PM the user in Chat (by clicking on their name and then choosing "Private Message") and talk about it with them privately, or go on the [[The Sims Wiki:IRC Channel|IRC channel]] and talk to an administrator there.

What would happen if a person wrote nasty, rude offensive stuff on Chat, but they were the only one on Chat at the time, and thus no one saw what they'd written. Or is there a record of things written on Chat that can be accessed by chat moderators? '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 07:37, May 17, 2014 (UTC)
 
Chat logs conversations for a short period of time; you can see this if you join Chat just after other users have said something, since it will display what was written before you arrived. Permanent data or logs of Chat are not currently kept. There was a [[Forum:Chatbot proposal|proposal]] to adopt a bot in chat that would log and save all conversations that take place there, but that proposal hasn't taken off yet. Ultimately if someone entered into chat and said something inappropriate but no one was around to read it, it's unlikely that any action would be taken with that user. - '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 11:22, May 17, 2014 (UTC)
