Starting a Direct message

How do I start a conversation with players in Chillverse

Starting a Direct Message

You can start a private conversation (DM) with any other player from their profile, you don't need to already be friends or have chatted before. There are two ways to get there.

Option 1: From a profile you're already viewing

If you can see someone's avatar or username anywhere in the app — in a club, in a chat, in a comment — tap it to open their profile.

  1. Tap the player's avatar or username.
  2. On their profile, tap Message.
  3. You'll be taken straight into your chat with them.

Option 2: Search for them

If you don't have a shared club or chat yet, you can look them up directly.

  1. Tap the search icon in the top bar.
  2. Make sure the Players tab is selected.
  3. Type their username.
  4. Tap their result to open their profile.
  5. Tap Message.

What happens next

If this is the first time you've messaged this player, a new conversation is created automatically the moment you tap Message, there's no separate "confirm" step. If you've already got a DM with them, you'll be dropped right back into that same thread instead of a new one.

If you don't see a Message option

A few things can prevent starting or continuing a DM:

  • You've blocked them, or they've blocked you. Blocked accounts can't message each other. Check Settings → Social → Blocked accounts to see who you've blocked and unblock them if needed.
  • Their profile hasn't loaded yet. Give it a second the Message button only appears once the profile finishes loading.

##That's it!
