Welcome to Parappa.party Chat

Parappa Chat is a publicly accessible chatroom and homeserver. It currently uses the Matrix protocol, which is akin to Discord, although decentralized as chats and accounts can be hosted in servers outside of Matrix's control.

If you have a Matrix account, you can directly join from there, but if you don't, we highly encourage you to either sign up at our homeserver, which uses the same domain as our site or to a recently updated homeserver in Join Matrix's list of public Matrix homeservers. This is in order to keep the Matrix network in good health.
You can use any Matrix client, but we recommend the nightly version of Nheko for the most functionality (read: stickers)

If/Once you have a Matrix account, you can join Parappa.party's Matrix space below:

Terms of Service

If you interact with this service in any way, you agree and are bound to the terms written in this page. These terms go as the following:

1. You must be 16 years of age or older. This is not only to comply with European GDPR and other countries' similar laws, but also to ensure that the quality of posts doesn't go down the sewers.
2. Due to this minimum age rule, posting of any NSFW content is also NOT allowed within the confines of any channel in the parappa.party homeserver - if NSFW gets posted in a public channel, you'll be banned from interaction completely.
3. Do not post anything that is illegal by US law, as that's where the server is located.
   If you live outside the US, I'd also recommend you to abide by your country's laws as well.
4. If you use the parappa.party homeserver for malicious purposes you will be banned and all the offending content will be removed immediately.
5. Be nice, don't be a dick. It's much easier than you think.
6. The following activities are not allowed either, and these will cause your account to be suspended as well: targeted harrassment, raids, spam, phishing and doxxing.
7. Avoid revealing your power level. Do not post images that can be easily used for malicious purposes such as selfies, and do not reveal personally identifiable information. This is for your own safety and that of everyone else.

• Registration at the matrix.parappa.party homeserver is currently closed until further notice. If abuse takes place, it will be closed permanently and turn into an invite-only systen instead.
• For now recommended homeservers are the following:
  • Hosted in Iceland: hackliberty.org

  • Hosted in the EU: usesarchbtw.lol (Germany) and imagisphe.re (France)
  Please note that you'll also have to read the terms of services of these homeservers and abide by them as well.
• Guest access is currently disabled as to prevent abuse.

• In order to increase security, bcrypt_rounds has been set to 16.
• Metric collection and Opentracing are disabled. However, we do keep some minimum logging, which last for about three days and are only useful for error logging - as well as a search index, so think twice before registering an account on this homeserver if you're worried about some kid randomly finding your message and making a mental cutaway gag out of it.
• We will NEVER sell or share your data to another party, no matter what.
• Matrix federation may couse some information to be sent to third party servers due to how federation works, but we are not liable for such a thing.
• If we get any sort of requests to share information with law enforcement, we will troll them to obvlivion politely decline. We will resist against any further legal action unless it is absolutely necesary to do so.
