is it just me.......do I smell???
But Ive been on a good few sites in the past and I have to say....I have never come across so many ignoramusis in my life.
And most on here have been on the other sites too....so is it just a quality this site brings.
Now I know how poor guys feel when they enter the chat.
Not even a hi or hello....Ive tried on few occassion to give it a go but nup totally Iggied.
Never came across such a bunch of clique ignormausis in my life.
Not worth popping in for
Off ma soap box hee hee  |

I agree bub that it does happen and folk can miss others saying hi when the chat is moving so fast!
I always try to say hi to folk that come into the room and to be honest I saw the OP in chat last night and said hello to them twice with no reply back! 
I thought about starting a forum about it but then thought to myself - aw well they must have missed me saying it on both occasions and I won't lose any sleep over it! 
Chat moves fast and if people don't say hello back to me then it really isn't the end of the world now is it?
As always, just my own wee opinion!  |

I totally see where you are coming from on this. I go into Chat alot and try and jump into the conversations. But I guess its just like other chats you have to build up into getting to know people when alot of people already do.Keep trying though the more you try the more likely you are to start making friends in it. xx |

Even regulars in the room dont always get a hi when they first come in , folks are maybe busy in whisper or not on chat page or engaged in a convo already in the room and when it moves fast they look out for the name of the person they are conversing with.
We were all once new to the room and i found the more u put in the more u get out of it , so keep plodding on and if i see you in room i will try and say hi , keep smiling . |

Sorry if I've missed you, I do try to say hi and welcome to the newbies coming into chat, not always easy if I'm caught up in a convo or the room is going fast. Hope you do keep trying, I'll look out for you.. Xx |

the chat can be a pain in the arse at times, we normally only get spoken to when we have the cam on, but you take the good with the bad. The chat is a fab way to get intouch with others xx |

Not slating your post at all but sometimes messages like you have just put here are put into chat and are hard to actually understand what folk are saying.
They need to be read over a few times and in the forums you get the chance to as the message hasn't whizzed off the screen!
Again, I am not slating your post here at all but it took me reading it over and over to actually make out what you were saying.
The above are just my own thoughts an no offence meant! |

I didn't agree with your post but I have my own opinion and I can disagree!
A question to you though - why did you "iggy" or "iggie" (never know how to spell the singular of made up words like "iggied" lol) me saying hello to you twice last night? Did you miss it? Did you not want to reply to it? Or? Not that I am bothered in the slightest, it is a retorical question!
Again no offence meant but you say you get "iggied", so do I and so does everyone else at some point or another. That's the nature of a fast moving chatroom! |

It wasn't needing to be "dumbed down" 
I told you after a few reading of it I got what you were saying. It was all the text speak, the abbreviated words, the use of a ? instead of a , or . the lack of spaces between words, etc, etc, etc.
Again, as i kept saying earlier it wasn't a slating of your post I am just more used to reading things that are written in a way that makes it easy to comprehend the first time around.
And nope I am not the spelling/grammar police but you did come back with the "ok il dumb it dwn" comment and thought I should explain! |

As reguarly used to ue the chat room I have to say I'll I know who will and will not say hello. I've the feeling some are only there to massage their own ego's and use being on cam as a power trip.
P.S. anyone who wan't to block me for that feel free I'm 42 not 14. |

have to say as a newbie to chat, i haven't found it cliquey at all.. there are regulars bobbing on and off all day and all you have to do is find a similar interest, sense of humour etc and off you go. There are people in there that just use it as a pulling tool... will just sit in there and say nothing and wait for the next person to come on and deal a crap onliner chat up to them, and there are people on there who chat, have a laugh and share problems with. Like I say I been in there less than a week, and am talking to others that haven't been there too long either. I knew no one in chat before I went in, yet managed to make friends quite quickly. Pipe down people... you don't go into a pub and expect the whole place to turn round and aknowledge you as you walk in, so don't expect it here. Sometimes there's that many people saying hello and goodbye to each other it's like an episode of the fecking waltons, and there's bugger all chat, just greetings! |

wow ..... where to start with this ....
ive been here and on chat for aprox 3 yrs and is it clique ???? THE ANSWER IS WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT YES IT IS!!!!!!
when newbies come into chat they are greeted with a "hi welcome to chat" by SOME chat-goers then thats it ... yes they could make an effort and try strike up a conversation but to be honest where the hell do they start cause in an instant they are forgot about and the regulars are back to doing what they were doing before they came in!!!
chat unfortunately is a hit or miss now unlike before ..... the main reasons for this are:-
1. jealousy (yes very sad but very true)
2. backstabbing (be very careful and choose your friends wisely) and
3. chat should be renamed "an audience with ..............."

Don't think we have had this kinda post for at least a week... And am suprised the old pub analagy aint been used yet.
Anyway... To the OP, go to a pub you have never been in before, stand at the door ans say hello everyone.
What will happen?
Some will say Hi, some won't.
Will any of them walk over to you and strike a conversation with you? Probably not!
Rewind a little bit, go back in the pub, buy a drink... Chat to the bar staff, get involved with what other people are saying and join in.
Similar with chat. If your new then people aint gonna be falling over themselves to strike a conversation up unless you put in the effort first.
Sorry, may sound harsh but just the way it is. Go in chat several times, don't be put off if your ignored the first few times but once you see something you can comment on or feel you can ask a question on just go for it. Rome wasn't built in a day they say so stick with it.
Wish you all the best.

AGREES WITH TRACE ....
Ive been on here close on 4yrs ive seen good and bad,people come people go..but surprisingly the amount of nice folk which have left confuses me.
Myself and a few of the others do like too create a bit of banter as its part of having fun.
there was a lot more discretion in the early days and people didnt take it too serious.
But i do have too totally agree with Trace ..
Buboo
PS: someone close the post .. |

Just to add, sometimes it helps if you change your writing 'style' to a colour or bold rather than the usual black, makes it easier to pick up......my eyes aren't what they used to be.  |

Buffy used it in her post :p
It's almost impossible to speak to everyone in the chatroom unless there is little more than a handful in. It's not cliquiness, it's not being rude or anything else. It's just a busy place to chat so you tend to chat to the people that you know.
There are new people joining every hour of every day and i've seen many of them come in, not say a word and then flounce out once they have torn the room members to shreds for not being welcoming etc. There is no big annoucement that people have entered the room i'm afraid so until you make yourself heard then you may not be noticed skulking in the wings.
If you want to make friends and get involved in the natural flow of the room then you just need to start chatting. As has been said, not everyone will speak to you but it's the same in every walk of life.
We had one newbie in today who was trying to treat the place like a creche. Wanted talked thru everything and everyone in chat but it just doesn't work like that. If you are old enough to understand how to get into the chat room then you are more than capable of realising how it works.  |

Im NOT slating anyone for not saying hello to lil ole me....unlike most folk i am NOT an attention seeking fem who will throw her tit out of the pram if I dont get any attention...then when I do get attention get all snobby and block you because my head has than gone so far up my ass due to the fact that I am a 1:10 ratio
I merely say I have noticed there tends to be a difference in the dynamics of this chat than others I have haunted.
I understand that folk can get lost in convo's
That the chat is busier than most chats
And I am not a regular.
If this was a guys post we would all bring up the ratio card.
But hence I am fem and have noticed it too....and according to the post so have many other fems.
Yes there has to be a balance...I have also been on other sites that folk spend most of time HIing and BYEing everyone which is retching too.
But anyway mrs nae pals will over and out for now and hope to CHAT soon

Ah that explains it, get yourself a mobile with a keyboard on it like mine and it makes it a lot easier to type in the forums, etc with it!

I don’t, go in to chat that much, I cant, type very fast so am not going to be able to have much of a conversion, some say hi some don’t, have to say some cams can be good, I agree some chats on over sites are better, maybe its because there not so busy, prefer forums to chat anyway, but that’s just me. |

I have to say I agree with u as well. When u go into the chat rooms they all seem to know each other, and u almost feel as if you are interupting so sometimes I say nothing at all. Other times I try to say hello but noone answers. I just wonder if they think I am just perving - because I am - NOT. That said the chat does go very fast so I am not giving up - YET xx

I do think there is way too much emphasis placed on 'hello/goodbye' in the chat room, however things are very different from when i joined the site a couple of years ago.
Now these greetings are somehow used as a measure of how lovely/popular/fuckable someone is..or who has the best friend or is the best friends..or likes person X more than person Y...then people become 3 and cry cos someone got 1 or 2 kisses more..or even a whole row! lmao..its hilarious and to me..madness lol
It use to be that as a newbie you were welcomed and people were sincerely interested in getting to know you and involve you in the site....that is no longer the case..generally.
Now in chat it is a hit or a miss for a newbie. Its twice as hard for a male, but thats just how it goes (not saying its right..just saying)
There are cliques on here and pretending they dont exist or asking who is in them or anything else..does not change they fact the are real and they do influence how chat goes.
It can be luck of the draw for some to be noticed and involved pretty quickly..thats life.
I have also noticed that the popularity changes for people. Todays rising stars will be the falling stars next week as a new face/faces emerge. Its the nature of the beast..be that right or wrong.
I wish it wasnt as it was at times and sincerely does bother me that some people do feel hurt or saddened..but..shit happens
What i would say is tho....really why worry?!
The real measure is this....if you left the site tomorrow..who would care? Who would call you, write you, email you, text you etc??
Those and ONLY those people really matter...the rest are all just pish and blethers in a chat room.....
