Register Your Chat Nickname
For security reasons, you must now register a nickname with a valid email address in order to enter our chat rooms, using the link provided at the end of these instructions.
Registration is a two-step process. You will receive one email asking you to confirm your email address by clicking on a link in the email message, then you will receive a second email providing you a password. When you click on the registration link at the bottom of this page, you will be asked for a valid email address. Your email address is used solely for the purpose of confirming your membership registration to this web site. Your email address will not be used for any other purpose and can only be accessed by the site administrator.
 This Is a Screen Shot of the Registration Form, Not the Real Form You will also be asked for your "Real Name" on the form. This can be your first name only, or first name and last initial. You do not have to reveal your full name to anyone at StepChat.com, including the site administrator. After you submit the form, you will instantly be sent an email to the address that you put into the form. The email will be from mem @ parachat.com. If you are using a web-based email account, such as Hotmail or Yahoo mail, or any other email client that filters spam, you may need to check your Bulk or Junk folder for the confirmation message if it does not show up in your regular inbox.
 The email you receive will contain a link that you can use to confirm that you did receive the message. This is to keep someone else from using your email address to register at StepChat.com. Click on the link, or copy-paste it into your browser and confirm that you want to register. You will immediately be sent a second email assigning you a computer-generated password, which you can use to log on to the chat rooms.
 Now that you have a registered nickname and password you can change your password if you wish to one that you would rather use or one easier to remember. To change your password click here and then click on the link that says "Log in to change settings" (circled in Red in image below).
 Use the password that you received in your second email to log in, then you can change it to a new password. Only you have your password, it is not accessible by even the site administrator. When you log on to any of our chat rooms, a window will appear asking you for your registered user name and password. Enter your nickname and password into the fields and click on the Connect button. If you do not see the window to enter your nickname and password, your browser may not be Java enabled. You may want to use the Java Test Tool to determine if your browser is set up to use our chat rooms. If you have a problem with the registration process, or have any questions or comments, use this form to contact the site administrator for assistance.
