“www.Chat-Avenue.com Sucks”

Elane R.
2/4/20

There are creepy moderators on Chat-Avenue.com. Making Chat-Avenue be a place where you can't say certain words because they're censored, making Chat-Avenue be a place where you can't protect your identity from the police by using a V. P. N. On the chat rooms, making Chat-Avenue be a place where you'll have a harder time finding a conversation with someone who considers your personality without wanting to have sex with you because you're a girl, and making Chat-Avenue be a place where all of the entitled V. I. P. Members, moderators, and administrators can bully people and get away with it are all signs that Chat-Avenue is not a place for intellectual discussions, not a place for decent conversations, not a place that helps average users who are not V. I. P. Members or administrators or moderators, and not a place that is safe for children. Stay away from Chat-Avenue.com.

Chat Avenue is the worst chat site I've ever come across on the internet, there's many pedophiles and sometimes there's not even any moderation due to lack of staff. If you make a female account and simply say "hi" in chat you'll receive many, many disgusting DM's. There are also frequently gross messages in general chat that you can report but like I mentioned earlier, there's often little to no moderation during the nighttime in the United States. A lot of the guest users lie about their age and return even after them being banned. Overall, it's a very harmful website that's full of pedophiles and should be taken down, I'm genuinely surprised it hasn't been taken down yet.

Tip for consumers:
You should just not use the site in general, and if you do, please report any gross messages you see.

Not surprised that everyone is saying the same thing I got banned from this site for complaining about 2 users in the general chat (a 13+ room) spamming $#*! pics.

First I was only muted because the moderator Boba Fett was having a nice chat with one of the offenders because they are mates.

Then when I complained to the room admin he said get over it

Definitely a safe haven for pedophiles oh and BTW the ones posting those pics are still in that room today so they don't report anything to the proper authorities because they allow it to happen

Tip for consumers:
Don't bother reporting illegal activities the site admin nor the room admins care

Again another site that I have visited to which the experience was awful. To easy to enter the site as a minor with inappropriate intentions. The adult chat is filled with links to private sites/ servers linked with child pornography. Not recommend at all and I don't understand why it hasn't been shut down. Legal teams need to investigate this site and users.

Chat Avenue is a let down. If you're wanting to chat your best bet is finding a group chat on social media for those with your interests or hunting for small chat community's. Chat Avenue is a relic from when chat room's were king. Chat room's such as AOL and Yahoo are long gone and Chat Avenue is still standing, albieit on one weakened leg ready to break. Believe it or not, lot's of people still use chat room's. For those looking for a fun and open ended discussions Chat Avenue is not the place for you. It's filled to the brim with censorship, predators, catfish, scammers and perverts.

WARNINGS:
- Don't post pictures of yourself. There's been blackmailers who steal profile pictures and upload them to porn sites in the past.
- Don't give out personal information such as your name, county or town. Some people will save and use this information against you.
- Don't leave your DM's open. It'll fill up with perverts and bots. Set your DM's to friends only or turn them off.
- VPNs aren't allowed, most of them get blocked. If you're lucky you can find one that doesn't get you auto kicked.

SOFTWARE:
• Runs Cody chat software
• Simple and easy to use
• Lacks customization features such as profile music and more selection of themes

CENSORSHIP/ POLITICAL BIAS:
• Chat Avenue leans heavily to the left

• Some rooms ban talking about politics and religion all together.
• Hard to give an opinion that isn't a talking point repeated again and again on mainstream media in some of the more heavily censored rooms without being accused of being a racist, bigot, transphobic, xenophobic, etc.

ADVERTISEMENTS:
• Chat Avenue runs adverts for cam websites in some of their chat rooms.
• Cam show ad's are in some rooms for some users as young as 13.
• Used to run ad's for "my free cams" in the teen chat room

If you're a minor go away. Chat Avenue is full of groomers who will take advantage of you. Teens and kids chat are full of predators posing as teens. Don't trust anyone on here. These chatters aren't your friends.

Tip for consumers:
Stay away from this chat room. If you insist on using this chat stick to video games, mobile or music chat as they tend to have less perverts.

Lots of disturbed people there:: chat trolls, pedos, scammers and sex-obsessed men. One has to be very careful there. Often there are no moderators and even when there are, at least some of them don't seem to care at all about what's going on in the rooms. There are underaged people there too and hackers and others. I am tired of the lies and sexual harassing and pretending that goes on in there. I just want to find good chat friends from around the world and this chat room isn't a very good place for that. Try some other chat room instead! This is not where you can find very many genuine friends, only selfish sex partners.

Judging by all the pedophilia accusations, it's no wonder I was treated much better on this site years ago when I was underaged compared to when I decided to visit it again recently...

There are creepy moderators at chat-avenue. They can and do read pryvit chats. I have been kicked out several times because i was chatting as a 19 year old to younger. I had a chat with a 12 year old boy ( on his fathers request and with his father sitting next to him, what i didnt now) over sports and summercamp where he was going to. Afther this his father compimented me for being nice to him and not have made it into a sex talk. We ende the chat and i switched to an other chatsite ( not from chat-avenue) When i switched back i was kicked out by chat-avenue with the reason " adult looking to prey to underage " What did i wrong? I dont now.So thats why i now they read your privit chats. I said that on the nain page in the room when i was back and get many reactions ( also from the father of that 12 year old boy) that they didnt now that the moderators read privit chats. There where several reactions of others with the same experiance. I found out also that chat-avenue entyerly runed by american moderators who violates all the international privecy rules.If they will make this a good site again with good chatrooms change the moderatorclub to a international one and make everyone the same ( no v. i. p. S or that $#*!) that will emprove the site and rooms i think. Thats me on that pic and im 19 years old. Im mostly on boychat where is no max age limit. And now ( 1/19/21) there is not only a pedo mod in boy chat but also in kids chat.

This chat site should be taken down off the internet. Its filled with pedophiles grooming kids. Sharing cp pictures, and trolling teens online who dont submit to their creepy request. Also they like to hack into teens social media and troll them and their families. Very BAD website. NorCal in boys chat is a pedophile beware!
