 1. When testing chat functionality in the app please do this between accounts you or your fellow contributors own - **do not test chatting with Concierge**, as this diverts to our customer support team. Thank you.
 2. A member of our customer onboarding team gets auto-assigned to every new policy created by a non-paying account to help them set up. Please **do not interact with these teams, ask for calls, or support on your issues.** If you do need to test functionality inside the defaultRooms (#admins & #announce) for any issues you’re working on, please let them know that you are a contributor and don’t need assistance. They will proceed to ignore the chat.
+3. Please **do not post in any Expensify owned public room for testing** (e.g #exfy-roadmap, #new-expensify-feedback). These rooms include real customers and investors. You can create your own public rooms, or [use this test public room](https://staging.new.expensify.com/r/2091104345528462) on either staging or production. Thanks!
 
 #### Generating Multiple Test Accounts
 You can generate multiple test accounts by using a `+` postfix, for example if your email is test@test.com, you can create multiple New Expensify accounts connected to the same email address by using test+123@test.com, test+456@test.com, etc.
