The site is well designed and easily acccessble. But it has two versions: the standard and the beta. It's pot luck which will load. The beta version is slow, clunky, doesn't load image files very well and the contacts list overflows such that names overlap. The standard one is fine until you click 'chat history'. Then it locks out for a minute. When you log on, you will be inundated by female profiles selling you porn sites. But the main problem is that the site will block you for for 48 hours for no apparent reason. It is probably because you have tried to contact too many profiles in too short a time. Avoid it.
The site stands as a great way to meet people with whom you would otherwise never interact. The biggest problem are the moderators. Instead of allowing a user free unimpeded access to every person on the site, if one sends out multiple messages the monitors will inform you that you are spamming the users... the implication being that if you continue you will be permanently banned from the site. Thus there is an "us vs. them" Gestapo attitude which pervades the site.
There seems to be a lot of closed-minded negitive woman posting reviews but if you're looking for a chat or a bit of fun its perfect. I got the app because real people suck and i am having a blast to be honest these apps are not for people looking for a relationship. To do that you have to go outside. Lol
This site is very casual,
Only problem very hard to stop scammers fakes an underage, also guys trying to be woman to scam you out of your hard earned money, so beware don't get sucked in for the sob story's. ( my mother in hospital aan iv no money for food an electric, o
Or il come an visit you if you send money for journey, or loads hookers want 300£ to spend the night with you,
Oh I'm at airport an cant get through customs till I pay my fine, £600,)
THESE ARE ALL FAKES SCAMMERS
They keep banning me for 48 hours but I did nothing wrong. Their server is often down. Avoid the beta version: b it is awful.
Please one more chance please I you please just allow me use this app for one last time promise to use good name
There is always men looking for "fun" no matter where you go. That doesnt mean you have to look for "fun" to chat on chatiw. I only have platonic chats, and I let the perves know, or I tell them "luck in your search".
Some like to use it as a dating site, I use it as a chat site. Yes with free sites, there is issues, you want no issue create your own free site. There are always scammers, to avoid them stay on the same site you met them, don't give out personal information. It is an anonymous chat site, and if you need to be anonymous you can find people on there who are the same, but people don't want what they fit.
Yes there are guy always asking for pics, you don't have to send just tell them no. You don't have to view their pics, I don't.
Men if you want to know how women are treated in life by men and what men think of women, log in as a female, you don't need to reply to the guys just read what they say, remember it isnt all men. No one can see you, no one will know who you are, don't be scared guys give it a try.
Women you can do the same, and see how long it takes to a man to receive a reply from a female.
Married females will have a great time, more so the females who are in a rut in their marriage, it will remind you what is out there and may cause you to appreciate the man you have.
Like all chats sites, dating sites, social sites, there is always men trying to use them for "fun". That is life, it is the same offline.
You meet someone face to face they make a "fun" offer, or you exchange numbers and they make a "fun" offer on the phone, or you go out on a date and they make that "fun" offer. Online is the same as offline meetings, for females and males. What you find in real life is the same as you find online, except more to go through.
Chatiw isn't a bad app my main problem with it is that it randomly ip bans me for no reason. I mainly use the site to make friends (and I've made a lot) but it always wants to ip ban me for apparently (looking at to many profiles) I think they need to just fix they're moderation system
If your after a quick jolly and are attached/unattached this is definitely a great site.
If you want a clean conversation and have a moral compass then I'd avoid like the plague.
For people wanting to make friends have an intelligent meaningful connection you'll find it demoralising.
In my opinion chatwi is pretty vile and if your not like minded get abused for not wanting to "play".
It's flooded with predators, child groomers, abuse-lovers and other cybercriminals. Most of them are fake profiles.
For the gullible and sadistic few.
Absolutely worst type of man possible on this site. 95% are married. 95% are looking for lewd chat. 99.9% are very unattractive physically, semi illiterate, unintelligent and very, very dull to interact with.
Found this site on Google, messed around on it a while. Most of the people there wouldn't even respond to a simple "hi," and of those that did, didn't even talk much. Actually had a girl on there ask me for Skype sex.
It's run on the cheap. Its servers can't cope so it locks up every couple of minutes for several minutes. That's if the site isn't down. Also, they will ban you for no reason. You will also be inundated with fake messages from spammers promoted by the site.
Site full of fake profiles and Bots, also men pretending to be women. Men must outnumber the genuine women 30 to 1. Complete waste of time, loads of sicko names inferring pdo and rape and incest. It really is terrible. Also full of sad married men. It constantly logs you out and bombards you with scam bot messages. Avoid.
Sick, sick, sick people.
They say they moderate bad names/foul language, they don't. Sad, sick men who have open season on women... If you're female and defend yourself, they ban you.
If you're female there's zero reason to visit this site. Save your time, energy and effort.
Chatiw is really a site for pedos and the police and other people who hunt them. Almost no women. I used to hunt myself, but became disillusioned at the dubious methods used to entice men into revealing an interest in children that they perhaps would not have taken had they not been tempted. On ocassions illegal material is sent to these men to prove that they had such content, or to try and find out if they would share something similar. The result: a bonus and praise, but a lot of ruined families and lives. Stay away, even if you have nothing to hide, and especially if you have nothing to hide.
I talk to someone, get started talking, then I get blocked blocked. It happened many times. On the other hand I get message after message trying to get me to another site, nothing happens. They are inefficient
I have used it on and off for 3 years now. But ever since they added their premium membership quality has gone out window. Spambots using premium accounts ignore the block and igore commands. Every time an add pops up get virus scan alert saying website blocked becaus trojan. And regularly have guys asking me for nude picks of my underage daughter
I've seen many males users over 30 looking for underage girls. I reported them, but they are still on the site. I've seen "Wantundr4gegirl" (46 male) at least 5 times.
I've seen many underage chatters such at "4t33nCurious"
This site has a warning when you first log in that inappropriate screen names and inappropriate conversations will cause the user to be banned. If this is the case, how are they enforcing it when Wantundr4gegirl" is on the site more than 5 times looking for chatters like "4t33nCurious" and there isn't a moderator to kick him out? Bans last 48 hours max, so if this pedophile is banned, he'll be back in 2 days.
I contacted about 8 to 12 people in the first day of being on the site. Everyone of them tried scamming money in some sort of way. Thats all the site is used for. Also to many ads sent to get you to go to another site. Blocked so many scammers
