In early 2022(after most of these negative reviews were written) the site was sold by the original creator/owner 'Callan' and a new team of admins and devs have taken over the site for the past year and a bit.

In this time the site has undergone many feature additions and overall bug fixes and quality of life improvements for the site. A big improvement was to the karma system that was regularly exploited by disgruntled users who intended in sexuaI convo but didn't recieve, and also people who had experience in coding that created scripts that mass flooded peoples karma count, instantly banning them.

The exploits got fixed but also the ability to be banned for long periods of time through karma, is a removed feature all together and isn't something that needs to be worried about anymore, karma is now just an indicator how the general community views the behavior of a user. Instead of karma, the site now has moderators again to control bans and it helps with alot of issues the site faced like inappropriate profile picture uploads (the AI photo recognition was a joke and never worked) but now they are manually approved by mods to control the abuse.

The bottom line is that Callan was a terrible site owner and definitely had a lack of knowledge in what was required to be a fair site that doesn't $#*! people over and there money. These new admins and devs deserve a chance and if you read this, I urge you to give emerald a try and not let these past negative reviews influence your decision. I really do think emerald is in a place to overtake omegle if it just had more public recognition.

Awesome website
December 12, 2017

Finally a service without bots and trolls, a service that is Moderated and always updated for what the users want. Not what the owner wants.

Way better than Omegle by a long shot.

Better than Omegle
February 24, 2019

Omegle is awful, Emerald is so much better.

No bots, more modern and more new features. These reviews below are fake.

Fix the issues
April 23, 2020

It sure has issues, like any other chatting website, but I prefer the spamming of real people than the spamming of bots in Omegle

This website is some sort of weird hub of sexual predators and grooming victims. Not really much else to say! Owners need to be investigated. Stay away.

So a lot of men sexually harass women on there. You skip them. They give you bad karma. And in the end YOU get banned, not the crude person. Then they want your money to unban yourself? Really? There needs to be an option to report assault and unwanted things.

I had not been on for 20 mins yet logged off to use the restroom came back on and it said I was banned because people gave me "negative karma points" I didn't do anything to anyone. This site is sad because you can't even use it because of the trolls. But I guess they profit off of people trolling because I could pay 5 dollars to get back in and get banned in less than 20 mins again. Just dumb!

No
August 18, 2018

Pretty much a Discord ripoff. And the paid service? Pretty sure Discord could sue them for that. Anyway, basically I used this to troll horny guys when I was bored... yeah, until I was sent a $#*! pic. Nice one.

These site peddles karma and try to get you to sign every few minutes. They actually pretend to care for postive chat but I supposedly got lot of karma and they banned me in few minutes of chatting and as attached picture shows, offered to unban me for 5 bucks. That is hilarious. The reason I got a lot of bad karma, was this guy I chatted who told me I am worthless $#*! because he saw black in my tag and told him to f* off, and he told me he will get me a lot of bad karma. Apparently there are worthless pigs who hand you over bad karma. Anyways, their sites are $#*!ty, full of horny teens, a bit clunky. The idea sounds good but run unprofessionally and broke $#*! desperate owners. Avoid!

Hmm...
July 2, 2019

The website is just a website, the average Internet people you meet there suck... but that's beside the point.

I've used the website for about 3 years and here is my current evaluation.
Why do I keep using it? Lack of better alternatives...

The website has major issues, the server is unstable and slow at updating.
Connections are easily lost without you even knowing it.
You risk having to refresh the website several times just for chatting with friends.
The Karma system is a joke and worthless as it is easy to trick the system.
The website has no way of reporting people who violate the writen rules.
The server is often down for maintanence, about once a month and for hours at a time.
The overall conditions of the website have gone down sinse an update back in December 2017. It is better than Omegle... but only just barely...

Dumbest chat site ever!
January 26, 2018

I started using Emerladchat like 2 weeks and its gotta be the most $#*!ed site i've used. You get banned for no reason if you dont curse someone out or if you skip too many people for 1 hr or in 1 day. Worst chatting site and it loads very slow. I think im done with that site. If you wanna chat with other people i prefer Talkwithstrangers.com and Strangermeetup.com.

Banned for a year
August 23, 2018

This site is so bad. I've only used for like a day and it really sucks. I'm sorry but getting banned for being a decent human being and wanting to have a good conversation just sucks. The karma system is so flawed and I hate that I was banned by being down-voted by guys who didn't like that I wasn't into "sexting", for not showing my face and for not showing my private parts.

This site is by far the most frustrating chat site ive seen. One, their $#*!ty alien robot advanced tony stark AI doesnt do $#*!, ive tested sending nsfw photos to myself and not one was filtered. Then the format. The format is so obvious that its a copy of discord x reddit x omegle. They dont even try to hide it. Also why isnt there a report system? Like karma is so easy to abuse, why dont you just have a report system and 24/7 moderation. Hell, ill be a mod to do this. Then the amount of pedos. Im 15 so i put teen. Then i see people with like "m35" names and and for asl. I only got one screenshot (below) but theres a lot, just set your interests to get it. Then the fact that they rule the site is even worse. The group chat is less horny, but way more toxic too. And i have normal conversations too, dont get me wrong, but its so rare and right after we go back to horny $#*!s. I dont know why this sites staff--especially the owner--are such idiotic and moronic stupid furry $#*!ing goddamn $#*! $#*!ting $#*!-sucking sack packing cesspool of the most $#*!ed grouping of people. Omegle has WAY less horny people and thats bad. The mods dont even go online at all, theyre always offline grooming some 13 year old girl. I dont recommend this site to anyone unless you wanna troll some horny people. This site is extremely toxic, horny, low effort, and probably got it set up by some dude on fiverr.

$#*! you
