Safety in chat rooms has become and should be a major factor in all parent's decisions in allowing their child the use of the internet and the access to such sites. My net name is ~erinme~ and I have been a member of the community at #1 Chat Avenue since the age of 13, I am almost 18 now. In thattime I have gone from a chatter to admin of three of the rooms at the site. The site has grown immensly in the time I have attended it and there are seperate ... ...regard to the Kid's chatroom in particular, I would like parents to be aware that we as a team, the room has a large amount of moderators and myself, take the job of protecting your child very very seiously, an age limit of 16 has been set for users of the room and that rule is taken as the most important of all room rules. Any older person who enters the room is immediately asked to leave, any user reported to the moderating team as being older ...

Quick review of chat-avenue.com Review ofchat-avenue.comby
Le-Le
I am an adult female and I have been going into chat avenue for quite some now. I must say that the conversations in general chat is disturbing enough. There was a 10 year old girl there conversating with a 38 year old man. He was telliing her that he could teach her what she needed to know about becoming a woman. And she wanted to know everything!!!! It was disgusting. Even in the children's chat room, it was outrageously unsatisfactory. The conversations there are completely unmonitored. You best believe me when I say...parents...pelase be aware of this website!!! ADULTS ARE TALKING TO THESE CHILDREN LIKE THEY ARE GROWN. IT IS DEFINITELY UNSAFE AND UNETHICAL!!!

Advantages: less people, less wasted time Disadvantages: Not all that exciting
This site is relatively like all other chat sites, being able to talk to anyone you want to, chatting privately or in a large group etc etc.
But, i have really warmed to this site, mainly bacause of how there always seems to be interesting people on it although the amount of people visiting it are very limited.
I'm a big fan of dobedo.com but recently i've found it getting too full and nearly impossible to have a proper converstaion. This is why ...

Advantages: Digichat Based Disadvantages: United Kingdom Hate-ing website, Rude Moderators
Well I have been using chat ave for years. They will no me as "Simon." Who has been banned many times for unknown (or non factual) reasons. I find out that some moderators and Administrators (chat admins) are UK hating people who hate all people from UK. So they get turned down on moderator possitions quicky! Also I have noticed, If you have a website like I have you are not allowed to be a moderator. (Desrimination)
Some of the chatters may be ... ...can ignore a user. Note: They will hire someone who "claims" they have nothing to do with any chat site and not in the UK (SHIVON - Teen Chat Mod) but they will say there are no more avilible mod spaces to any one saying that they are from the UK and/ or own there own website. ...
