I found the site via google, it seems to crop up a fair bit in google searches and so I assumed it was a long established and well managed site. On arrival at the site the layout seemed clear and concise and the menu was very easy to follow. There appears to be two sides to the site, the chatrooms and the message boards.
The message Boards
I have spent a few days reading through the messages which can be done without the need to sign ... ...up. This is good as it helps to control the message content. Reading through the many threads it would appear that the moderators have a tendancy to delete threads and accounts at will and there isnt always clear reasons why a thread or account has been removed. Some people appeared to be able to say or do pretty much as they pleased others seemed to have their posts or accounts removed for little or no reason. I could see how this would lead to ...

UKChat is an Internet Chat Community, and has been online since 1997, nearly 10 years. It is run by a community of volunteers and is not profitable. Like all Online Communities - as with other walks of life - there are many many pleasant people and there are those who are less so. UKChat does not claim to be free of the latter and has never done so.
What UKChat does do, unlike most Chat Communities on the Internet, is attempt to provide the best ... ...There are nearly 100 volunteer moderators currently putting in countless hours every week in order to make this site as good as they possibly can. They deal with some 2 million users every month. Unlike most sites, you won't find chat rooms named for advertising sex. You won't find rooms whose purpose is to attract young girls for older guys. You will find rooms for many general purposes and more focussed purposes. You will find rooms for teenagers. ...

Advantages: No registering, wide choice of rooms, online hosts who are very helpful. Disadvantages: n/a
This site has to be one of the best chat sites that I have been on.
First of all, wide choice of rooms, varying from teen chat rooms to "The Dungeon" for over 18's.
There's also rooms for single people, flirting and also over 50's chat room so all ages are catered for. There's plenty more rooms available as well, too many to be mentioned, including the opportunity for you to create your own chat room and decide who you want there and who you want ... ...polite and helpful.
Also, the most important thing to me si the fact that there's no messing about to chat, all you do is go to website, choose a room, enter a nickname and chat away.
Most other sites require you to register, but this site is one of only a few exceptions.
So, get chatting !!! ...

UKChat is a safe, friendly, moderated chat site which aims to appeal to all kinds of people of all ages.
Unlike most sites out there it does always try to be aware of what is going on and to protect kids from harm if they are online. It has loads of volunteers who spend hours every day online making sure that what is said is nice and friendly and that there are no perverts on there.
Most sites gave up on this a long time ago and it's nice to see ...

I use this place and found it great. They always seem to get rid of weirdo's and perverts. The site seems to concentrate on making sure kids are safe and I have always found the mods to be helpful here. I have been in alot of chatrooms that are in comparison far too big and cold where this place is warm and friendly with smaller room sizes. I have always found the forum boards a good laugh and the computing forum helpful. They have an unmoderated ...
