I have never played around with chatroulette over 30mins so I don’t really know much about it except the fact that there are plenty of perverts when you need them.

To be honest, I think chatroulette is for perverts to waste their precious time on web showing their sexiness when they can be more valuable person. Of course, not everyone is perverted. I’m just saying there are many people who are like that.

There are some people who get on chatroulette for better reasons. There are several groups.People who simply wants connections, people who wants to explore world away from where they live in. Or international people such as my best friend to improve on her English skills by talking to people and get help on getting needed information.

It has both good sides and bad sides. Very contradict stuff, I must say.. Reminds me of psychopath with several different personalities, which leads to the point that this can turn around so easily and quickly to be one of most scary stuffs that you can ever mess around with, for the rest of lives. But since there are so many perverted people, there’s also chance that it can work badly for people who are trying to use chatroulette for good. I’ve seen people change. People started using it for good reasons but after meeting several hundred perverts for a year or two, he also enjoyed fooling people around. I don’t know whether he became a pervert or not, but I’m pretty sure that he cursed random people he met and made others uncomfortable in another way.

 As we all know, cyber-crime is a major issue in society since internet started to develop and rule our lives. False fact spread out, prostitution, leak of personal data (a.k.a hacking; thief; hackers), internet addicts to lost existence without knowing, personal mental disorders such as schizoid personality disorder or social phobia. If we look around, it’s not so hard to find social phobias. They value online life and people from online than real life and real friends. They insist to isolate themselves rather than socializing. Lost etiquette is another problem which happens usually, I mean all the time, through random chatting. People say rude things that can definitely hurt one to people just because they won’t meet the person ever again or in real life.

 I have been told internet chatting is very dangerous since I was in elementary school. I have been meeting people through online once and I was caught by my dad. He was really angry at me, um.. probably worried rather than angry. That day, I got punished a lot and were told that there are “a lot of crazy people out there”,” it’s a dangerous world” “you have to be careful, take care of yourself”, “you don’t know what will get you in trouble by meeting random people” etc. Also day after the punishment, I recognized that there were bunch of news about crimes occurred by random chatting everywhere such as online, TV, newspaper and such medias. The word “Dangerous world” really came up to me for a while. It could be my prejudice but sadly it’s a true fact that the random chatting isn’t safe all the time.

 I tried to give it a chance for several time to look on the bright side, but every time I got on, it always disappointed me with perverted scene on shown webcams. I also felt ignored when they left me just because I wasn’t their types. Just because they left to look for another person doesn’t mean I’m a miserably boring, mean and ugly person to chat with but it totally made me feel like hearing “You are not even worth to chat with”. I felt worse and worse until I log off thinking it’s not worth being on it longer. It made my day feeling all disgusted, upset, and disappointed.

 I totally agree on Chance’s thought about getting opportunity to talk and make connections with people who I have no chance to meet by my own will and it’s wonderful to give confidence to people to talk out who are shy to do the same thing in real life, but there is just too much risks for that.
