  1. Overview of BigFirmOnline Chat and Forums Contacts
    In BigFirmOnline Chat and Forums, a contact represents another user who you frequently send messages or talk to, and want to quickly find out whether they are online, and send messages to them.

  2. Adding a new contact
    Before you can add a new contact, you must first find them. Once you have selected the desired user, you can click the add to contacts list button. You can also add multiple contacts at once from the find user page in Windows, by holding down the Control key while you click on each user, and then click on the add to contacts list button.

  3. Seeing which contacts are online
    1. In Windows
      Select the Contacts Panel in the main window. This displays all your contacts that are online in one list, and those that are off-line in another list. Users who appear grey are idle. (meaning that are probably not at their computer) You can double click on any contact to send them a message.
    2. In a Web Browser
      Click on the Contacts Window option at the top of the main page. This lists all your contacts, and whether they are online or not. A user who is listed as idle is probably not at their computer. You can click on any contact to send them a message.

  4. Removing a contact
    To remove a contact from your contacts list, select them, and click on the Remove from Contacts List button.
