Should this site offer live chat 💬?

Top | New | Old

I dont know how many people would take that up. A good 80% of people remain anonymous here for anxiety or other reasons.

I'd like to see that, and multiuser chat, but only if they can implement it in a way to limit bad actors.

OldBrit · 61-69, M

@DunningKruger multi user messaging would be good

Similarname · 46-50, M

Nah, not necessary; having pm is fine, and if 2 people are both online at the same time then pm basically equals live chat.

How about No!

MarbleMarvel

That would be so awkward. Probably awful. Lots of crazy stuff going on.

No. Lol

@MarbleMarvel I second this 😂

MarbleMarvel

@Notsimilarreally I just imagine fapping sounds and moaning and yelling and crying and complete sensory overload lol

@MarbleMarvel What would the rest of us be doing? 😂

Should have a chat option. Would make things easier when talking to someone.Instead of pms

No....you will be endlessly scrolling to see what everyone has written...imagine 100 people posting every minute and people are commenting on them.

Feed goes crazy.

Jeez...NO!!! I've seen some of what they use the video feature for... 🤮🤮🤮

JimboSaturn · 56-60, M

No one would do it. People really value the anonymity here.

DDonde · 31-35, M

iOrbix had one, so they probably could've added one a long time ago. But decided not to for whatever reason.
Edit: I meant a live text chat, not video chat

Would be neat 💡

Have you ever tried a 'live' chat site before? I have. The whole process kinda sucks actually if there's more than 2 people chatting. What that leaves then is what we have already which is PM's.

The problem with 'live' chat is that you have to stay active in the moment, otherwise it cuts off. Live chat therefore doesn't allow you to walk away to get something and come back 10 minutes later to pick up where you left off like PM's otherwise do.

For that reason, even if we had 'live' chat here, I'd never use it.

@swirlie agreed

MrGoodbar · 51-55, M

that might be cool or even a group messaging

Frostcloud · F

they wont even give us posts in chronological order. they couldnt handle a live chat

NinaTina · 26-30, F

@Frostcloud I said same thing

Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M

@Frostcloud 😂 this

ChiefJustWalks · 26-30

@Frostcloud they used to show the posts in chronological order back in 2016 & '17 when the site first opened.. I'm not sure when it changed since I left for 5 years

Subsumedpat · 36-40, M

Like group chat or live messaging?

meJess · F

Isn’t a PM back and forth a live chat?

JimboSaturn · 56-60, M

@meJess I think so lol

pancakeslam · 41-45, M

yes live video chat 📷

so we can see what people really look like

KingofBones1 · 46-50, M

It's pretty much close enough or do you mean FaceTime cameras that would turn into basically jack off sessions

Punches · 46-50, F

@KingofBones1 When MSN chat rooms were still around, there was always someone saying, "Who wants to watch me j4ck off on webcam?"

Like ain't no one want to see that.
