Is it not blatantly obvious? The laws cover the same ground no matter if you say them on a message board, a chat room, a phone call, writing, or in person. The law is the law.
There are no 'special' laws for chat rooms. If you incite racial hatred in person you're breaking the law, if you do it in a chat room you're breaking the law. It's not against the law to swear with a kid near you in person, even if it is distasteful. Guess what? It's not against the law to do it in a chat room either.
It's also not against the law to do it in this forum, it is however against the forum rules, so I'd advise against it.
Roy's stated the chat rules, and I'm sure you can use your judgement to know whats within the law. Stay away from plotting terrorism and I'm sure you won't go much wrong.
