FAQs

NoLife.uk is a social messaging platform designed for people who spend most of their time online. As we say, it's "a messaging platform by people without a life, for people without a life." We offer global chat, private messaging, and a growing community of like-minded individuals who prefer digital interactions over touching grass.

Global Chat is our community-wide chat room where all NoLife users can interact. Simply click the "Global Chat" button from the homepage or dashboard to join. You don't even need an account to browse the Global Chat, but you'll need to sign up to send messages. This is a great place to meet other users or just hang out when you're avoiding real-world responsibilities.

Yes! NoLife.uk is completely free to use with all core features available to everyone. Unlike other platforms, we don't lock essential features behind paywalls. We do offer a premium subscription called NoLife+ which provides additional customization options and benefits, but it's entirely optional and only adds extra perks to your experience.

NoLife+ subscribers get access to:

• A prestigious PLUS+ badge displayed next to your username
• Custom profile themes and animations
• Exclusive badges and status icons
• Early access to new features
• Priority support
• Ad-free experience (if we ever add ads)
• Higher file upload limits

Best of all, you'll be supporting a platform that isn't a "corporate money-making scheme" as we mention on our homepage!
