PistolPete 61421 Report post Posted December 17, 2011 I'm very pleased that I don't go into chat room anymore. Too many people away and go to private chat rooms, my last visit in there lasted a whole two minutes. I'm happy to chat through pm's with my fav's ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Isabella Gia (Banned) 53881 Report post Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) Everyone here has the right to decide to stop or to never visit the chat room however, with all due respect Pete I find your comment out of context. Being away or in private conversations from my perspective does not go against chat etiquette. Those are just personal choices some members make for different reasons and I don't think they disrespect anyone by doing so. Perhaps the members you refer to choose to do that because they contact those they are interested to chat with as opposed of being approached by anyone.

PistolPete 61421 Report post Posted December 17, 2011 Just giving my reason why I do not visit chat anymore. There is eight pages on chat etiquette, any where from a man looking to pull out his penis out to show and tell, OR men asking ladies to show more on cam, back door chat rooms with nothing accomplished other then this 8 page thread on etiquette and complaints about members going into private chat rooms, so I just don't visit the chat room...what is wrong with that? what is out of context? other than my choice of not visiting the chat room? If you visit the chat room enjoy your stay and have fun,this is my own preference of not visiting, but please ensure you play nicely inside the chat rooms.

Guest Ni**t*****t Report post Posted January 12, 2012 It seems like many members boycott the chat room for various reasons. I think we are complicating things a bit. The Chat Room used to bo a lot of fun to meet people, chat, private chat etc... I hooked up with a SP in the room. But we need to keep in mind that a chat room is a chat room... a place to meet people. This is a great opportunity! get together guys/gals! Our community is provided by this golden opportunity to communicate, chat, have fune, set up meets, etc... don't can it by g..'s sake! Are we a community or not?

Secrets of Victoria 7208 Report post Posted February 5, 2012 as a newer member on here (but certainly not new to the business) I love the idea of the chat room. But I have to agree with some of the posts that if the cam is not on, its not on for a reason. That reason could be anything, someone else in the room, just stepped out of the shower, etc, and I do believe it disrespectful to ask someone without the cam on, to turn it on. I also agree with being polite. I will say hello upon entering the room, and if someone is private chatting to me, I am very respectful and polite. If I have to leave the room, I say so, as I do have other things to do. I like this site so far and would welcome the opportunity to utilize it more. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cleo Catra 178382 Report post Posted June 8, 2012 My chat room tip is: don't bombard someone with idle chit chat the moment they enter the room. Personally, this is why I rarely go in, because when I do, I get swamped with private chat requests from people who simply want to ask me about my day. While I do enjoy keeping up with some 'friends' in the chat room, I'm really not there to shoot the shit with everyone about the weather and their work day. It's a great feature to meet people, ask questions, and set up dates. But when it feels like an old-school 'chat room' with strangers just talking about nothing, I bolt. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually haven't been to the chatroom in years for exactly this reason. It's not a problem specific to cerb though. I don't go on chat on facebook for the same reason. Maybe I'm just antisocial lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If someone is just like 'what are you doing', and not trying to make plans or ask me about something, I feel like, why are you chatting at me? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vestakia 272 Report post Posted June 27, 2012 I'm fairy new here, I enjoy utilizing the chat to obtain some bookings, but one this that slightly bothers me is when someone watches your cam and doesn't even talk to you. Just a tad creepy lol. I completely agree that mundane talk about the weather is complete waste of time, I don't know about you ladies but when I enter that room, it's to pick up bookings, not to talk about my day. One more thing I had to deal with, I'm sure you other gals have to put up with is when someone pretends they're interested in your services just to pump personal info about your services, probably to fap and just completely waste your time. Don't bother a lady unless you're actually interested in what she has to offer. >< Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vicero 140 Report post Posted June 11, 2013 i wasn't a great chat-room fan but seriously if someone really bothers you, why stand there and take it? you can always relocate your buisness elsewhere Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest S**ney Laf****e Report post Posted November 10, 2013 Hi, I'm pretty new here and have been in the chat several times. One of the main things that annoys me is people sending me private chats without having spoken to me in the general section first. Please, start a conversation with me before asking me to your room. At least a couple of whispers or something! Second, I've had a couple people be very sexually aggressive with me in private chat. Just because I'm an SP doesn't mean you should tell me you're currently masturbating by looking at my website. It's kinda low-class. Sex talk is ok with someone you know but when the process is "hi" >> "what's your website" >> "I'm getting off on your pictures" it totally turns me off. I'm a lady - treat me like one! Aside from that I've had a lot of fun in the chat room and I'm already making friends. I'll keep visiting it, but I just ignore the private chat requests now when someone hasn't properly introduced themselves. In many other chatrooms on the internet the number one rule is "ask permission before starting a private chat". I'd like to see this rule applied in the Cerb chat. My two cents! Cheers, Sid Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andee 220524 Report post Posted December 10, 2013 Please check my profile before asking me to private chat. Questions like "are you in Ottawa" are usually the first hint that someone has NOT read my profile. Thank you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanyathetgurl 857 Report post Posted October 30, 2014 I used chat for the first time yesterday and I liked it, but I noticed there's the potential for "dead air." It helps to be prepared for chat, as opposed to just leaping in without any sort of plan. So, one rule of etiquette that works well for me is: be prepared, with a few fun, semi-racy subjects to discuss ... As to less-than-polite people ... yes, they're annoying but it's good that they're showing their true colours in chat. Now I know I should tell them "no thank you" if they were to approach me in my capacity as a SP. Forewarned = forearmed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kadie Lux 1860 Report post Posted May 7, 2017 Let me know some good chat rooms to visit! I havent visited a chat room in SO long. Been forever. Didnt realize people still use them.. But why not! I'm sure theres some awesome people other than the weird creepy men who always ask to cam and send cam requests every minute. I will maybe have to check out the Lyla chatroom. I prefer private message over anything to be honest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lephturn 2649 Report post Posted May 7, 2017 I suspect that the a/v aspects keep people out of the chat. I know you don't have to turn that on, but it pushed me out of it the first time. The pop-ups asking for microphone and camera access.... woah woah... DO NOT WANT. Just a plain old text chat would I think get much more action. Every time I've dropped into Chat Room it's been empty so... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
