Chat Room TOS Violation?

Hey,

I'm wanting to setup a chat room on my site, it's a fairly busy site which gets 250,000+ page views a day but I'm unsure if this will violate the TOS, I wouldn't want to lose my adsense account!

I've read the TOS and can't see anything about this, can anyone confirm this?

Thanks

As I understand it, the TOS only applies to the pages that display adsense. If you aren't planning to put adsense on the chatroom pages it shouldn't matter.

I intended for it to be on the same site and the same domain but using the full site of an empty page WITHOUT adsense on it.

Adsense seems pretty fussy about things, it's hard to tell sometimes :)

I don't see how you'd run into problems, providing the rest of the site meets Google's requirements.

It could be my old brain but I thought Chat Rooms were against the TOS.

At the end of the day the best people to ask are G themselves.
