Now, chatting is allowable on user message boards, except for extremes - which may receive the attention of a Supervisor with a warning message. WikiAnswers was not intended to be used as an IM (instant messaging) service all day long, so that would be an extreme. However, we would still like to have you participate and contribute quality answers or contributions to the site! Community is a part of WikiAnswers.

What is the purpose of the WikiAnswers personal message board?
There are several ways to communicate information about members of WikiAnswers. Obviously, a lot of information can be conveyed via answer, some by questions, very specific information can be communicated via the profile page, but the most free-form way of communicating on WikiAnswers is the personal message board. You may access your message board by clicking the link in the blue menu area to the left entitled, "My message board." You can also send messages to others by clicking the "Message user" link on their profile page in the Stat box to the right. Not all information that can be shared in the message boards is appropriate. The prohibition against sharing private details applies on the boards as well as in questions and answers. In short, any information that can be used to identify a person should not be solicited or shared in the message boards. Sharing it is a violation of WikiAnswers privacy policy. Soliciting is spam. The safe route is to look on the profile page of the member to see what that person has shared about himself or herself. If it is not there, simply do not ask for it. If you wish to share it about yourself, do so on the profile page. First and foremost, the message boards are not a dating service nor a social networking site. While it is not a violation of WikiAnswers rules, guidelines, or Terms of Use to exclusively or primarily use the message boards to chat, what that chat contains could lead to issues. Additionally, if you ever have questions about what is and is not appropriate on any section of WikiAnswers, simply ask a supervisor.
Do you report someone who has only chatted on WikiAnswers to a Supervisor?
Chatting only- though greatly discouraged and frowned upon- is not forbidden from the site. Unless the contributor is cyberbullying or violating another policy on WikiAnswers, it is not necessary to report them to a Supervisor.

How do supervisors ban members of WikiAnswers?
When a user is violating the WikiAnswers terms of use a supervisor may block them using the "Block Vandal" feature. The supervisor enters the username or IP address they would like to block, the duration of the block and the reason for the block before submitting. When possible, the supervisor should first post a message on the user's personal message board educating them about the policy they are violating. If the behavior continues after that, then a block should be pursued.
