The Wikia Chat feature is an on-site live chat that registered users may utilize to communicate with others in real time. The feature may be accessed through a pop-up window at Special:Chat, or by entering via the right navigation rail in Special:WikiActivity. Note that the chat only works with the Oasis skin, and as such you are redirected to the Oasis version by aforementioned link.
Discord is a free text and voice chat medium. The application can be used from within the web browser or downloaded, with the link for both being on the homepage of its website: discordapp.com. It is available for several operating systems, and can be accessed via a web-app on certain browsers.
The guidelines stated here apply both to the off-site wiki Discord chat and the wiki chat.

Bots
If you wish to have a chat bot in the chatroom, there must be consensus to do so. Please make a request on the administrators' noticeboard outlining what the bot's purpose is in the chatroom, as well as the advantages when running it. If there is a successful bot request, the bot's commands should be documented on a subpage of either the owner's or the bot's userpage. If the bot promotes spamming in the chatroom, the bot might be removed from the chatroom or have a command removed. Any unapproved bots as well will be removed from the chatroom.
Current chat bots run in the chatroom (applies only to the wiki chat) are as follows:
| Username | Owner | Purpose | Discussion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hypercane Bot | Hypercane | Logs the wiki's chatroom as well as produce statistics | (promoted automatically) |
| Baron Kobe (semi-active) | Bobnekaro | Logs the wiki's chatroom as well as produce statistics | (promoted by admins) |
| PassionFruitMaster (semi-active) | StrawberryMaster | Logs the wiki's chatroom | Link |
Other notes
- If you see a link posted in chat, or private messaged to you by someone you do not know or trust, it is advised that you do not click it.
- If another user has private messaged you inappropriate content, you can contact a Chat moderator through private message.
Chat moderators
The chatmoderator right allows users to moderate the chat by kicking and banning offending users. Administrators, as well as individuals who have passed the RfCM process, are allocated this right.
