Most chatting guidelines (AKA Netiquet) are pretty much common sense. Nonetheless We will outline some of the common things to do and not to do when chatting.

1. Don't type all in UPPERCASE. Many people regard this as shouting.
2. Don't harass people. If they don't respond to your first message, take it as a hint, and leave them alone.
3. Some common abbreviations:
   • LOL - Laugh Out Loud
   • LMAO - Laughing My Ass Off
   • ROTF - Rolling On The Floor
   • ROTFLMAO - Combination of ROTF and LMAO.
   • BRB - Be Right Back
   • BBL - Be Back Later
   • BBIAB - Be Back In A Bit
   • WTF - What The Fuck
4. "Emoticons" are combinations of characters that (usually) reflect a certain facial expression. Tilt your head to the left to "see" them. Some examples are :) (smile/happy), :( (frown/sad). Be creative... For example, Squishy likes to add noses. :o)
