<h3>DMs on the Chat Room</h3>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Direct Messages on the chat room are NOT stored persistently on the server. They are sent directly
|
||||
back out to the recipient(s) as they come in.

||||

|

</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Direct Messages on the chat room are stored for user convenience. They are available so that you may be
|
||||
able to remember your recent conversation with somebody when you see them online again in the future.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Your Direct Message history on the chat room can be deleted at any time by clicking on the
|
||||
"Clear direct message history" button in the Chat Settings (on the Misc tab). Your chat DMs are also
|
||||
fully deleted if you change your username on the main website, or fully delete your {{PrettyTitle}} account,
|
||||
in order to protect your privacy in case your former username becomes registered to somebody else in the
|
||||
future. Old DMs are routinely erased after the message is 90 days old.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
You are also able to delete, or "take back" specific messages you had sent to somebody before, even
|
||||
if they are not currently online. This will remove the message from the server database and won't show
|
||||
in the message history for your chat partner. If they were presently online at the time, and your message
|
||||
was visible on their page, the "take back" action will remove it from their page immediately.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
When you erase your DM history, it will erase your history from your previous chat partners' side as
|
||||
well. The next time they open a chat with you, the history will be empty as though it is the very first
|
||||
time they are chatting with you.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
DMs are NOT monitored by admins on the chat room: the software is not programmed to reveal them on
|
||||
the front-end web page to moderators. However, they MAY be logged as part of the chat server's operation,
|
||||
especially if the server is running in debug mode which may sometimes happen while a new feature is being
|
||||
developed or a bug is being researched and fixed. The log file is NOT regularly monitored except when
|
||||
debugging an issue.
|
||||
the front-end web page to moderators. However, they CAN be accessed in case a conversation is reported
|
||||
for violating the site rules or discussing illegal content.

Messages sent to your chat partner may be cached on their web browser page until they close the window
|
||||
or refresh the chat. You may "take back" individual messages by clicking on the red
|
||||
<i class="fa fa-rotate-left has-text-danger"></i> icon which will remove it from everyone else's screen
|
||||
who saw that message. Deleting your DM thread only removes the thread from your view, but does not remove
|
||||
who saw that message. Closing the DM thread only removes the thread from your view, but does not remove
|
||||
the thread from your partner's view. This is communicated in a pop-up before you delete the DM thread.
