# Chatw

> See peoples response rates and how far they continue with their conversations when people dm them. This is to help with identifying people you shouldn't really put much effort into communicating with as you're unlikely to get a response.  You can also live cam for the main room for everyone to see if you don't mind  your inbox exploding (if you're female, men can try as well, but results may vary...)

Best for people who want a public text room that allows NSFW gifs and videos, where they can be confident that their privacy is protected while tackling the age old issue of bad actors.

## Facts
- What it is: Four public rooms: NSFW, SFW, Suggestions and Voice
- Who it is for: Adults 18 and older
- Sign-up: Not required
- Email or phone: Not collected
- Name and gender: Shown next to every message
- Private messages: Available without an account
- Message history: Short on purpose
- Price: Free, Currently there are no ads even, but ad spaces are clearly marked already, there will never be any intrusive pop ups or malicious hidden malware or phishing. I am a solo dev I'm not selling your information or even harvesting it at all.

## How it is different
- Dating apps: This site focuses more on group conversations and many advanced features that you wont find on other sites, its not meant to be Tinder, its meant to be something you can watch and participate in as entertainment without putting much thought into while you do other things, or a place to talk with new people while not having to wonder if they are lying about their gender.
- Random stranger chat: I dislike the random stranger chat sites that pair you with a random person because most of the people you get paired with are looking for something very specific and will auto skip every conversation, I'd much rather be able to see a persons username to get an idea about whether we have something to talk about. That being said, once the userbase has the numbers required to support it i might add it as a secondary feature.
- Active Development: Although this site has been created by a single person, it dwarfs most other apps of this type in terms of functionality, features, continued additions, feedback consideration, and suggestions. There is a whole system set up where you can propose features and if its upvoted enough it gets added to a work queue for me to implement. Changes come about daily, and you wont encounter bugs that manage to live on the site for years. You can message the developer directly on the site and I respond, usually very quickly. If you report a bug here, it gets handled the day you report it, not years down the line.

## Questions
### What is Chatw?
Chatw.org is a free, adults-only public text chat. You pick a display name and a gender tag, then you talk. Pictures, GIFs, videos, group chats, and private messages are available. You can also send voice messages or do voice calls or group calls.

### Do I need an account?
No. There is no email or phone number. An account is optional if you want the same reserved name on another device.

### Is Chatw 18+?
Yes. You must confirm you are 18 or older before the site loads. It is not for children.

### How is Chatw different from a dating app?
While profiles exist this is a chat room site, not a dating app explicitly. People are free to talk about whatever they wish, or make their own groups to discuss whatever they wish. The features exist to verify who you are talking to is real.

### Can I send a private message?
Yes. Click a name and write them. They can set messages to by-request so strangers get one line, then wait.

### What is a voice check?
Optional. You read a random phrase into the mic. A badge shows you did it live. You can also ask someone in a private message to do the same, once. If I can find a less intrusive way to verify that someone is not lying about their gender I will implement it. For now, voice seems the best option. Voice check is only needed for women, as women pretending to be men is not currently an issue anywhere, only the other way around. I may implement some kind of verification for men so that women can be confident they are talking to who they think they are talking to.

In this same vein, pictures taken live with your device display on that pic permanently, so you can take a live picture of yourself, use it on your profile, and not have people question that you are who you say you are. You can also go through manual verification where admins confirm that you are really who you are claiming to be. 

 Also, if you are a trans person YOU MUST USE THE TRANS TAG. I'm not here to debate whether trans women are real women, its disingenuous to claim you are a female if you were not born as one, the trans tag exists specifically for you. Saying you are a woman if  you are a trans woman instead of using the trans tag will result in a ban.
