Your conversation will open in a private direct message chat.

Option 2: Message Someone Inside the Same Room

If the person is currently inside the same room as you, you can message them even if they are not your friend yet.

Here’s how:

  1. Click on My View

  1. Select the participant you want to message

Once you send a message, that conversation will remain inside your Direct Messages list.

Even if the participant goes offline later, you’ll still be able to continue messaging them from your existing conversation.

Adding Someone as a Friend

If you want to add someone as a friend instead of only messaging them:

  • the person must currently be online

  • and inside the same room as you

This is different from direct messages, which can continue even after someone leaves the room.

Important to Know

⚠️ Direct messages are private and separate from the public room chat.

⚠️ Public chat actions like deleting or downloading do not affect your private direct messages.

⚠️ You can message participants directly from the room even if they are not yet in your friends list.

⚠️ Friend requests can only be sent while the other participant is online in the same room.

Recap

Inside the GoBrunch chat, you can:

  • delete the public chat history ❌

  • download the public chat history ⬇️

  • send private direct messages 📩

  • message room attendees directly

All directly from the chat panel inside your room ✨
