A private chat channel is a way to send messages to a specific group of players. Only players that are "invited" can join a private chat channel. Messages sent in a private chat channel are visible to all players that have the channel open, but cannot be seen by any other players.
Only players with a Premium Account can start a new Private Chat Channel.
Also notice that the Rule 2e do not apply to private chat channels, so you may freely speak in a non-English language.
Note: a Private Chat Channel is different from a Private Message Channel. A Private Message Channel is only between two players, while a Private Chat Channel can include any number of players.
