Not happy with the moderation, crashes regular in my experience, senior staff have not taken my complaints about moderators seriously I feel.


General Comments

I've been on ukcb for 2 years and it was good at first but the site has gone downhill in the last 12 months I have found, almost impossible for me personally to have a decent conversation in there as external links to news sites or sites of interest are banned making it difficult to find a topic other than ukcb, dont recommend this site if you dont want people asking you what your wearing or other sexual remarks in... there are some really nice people on ukchatterbox.co.uk but I do not recommend this chat room due to my experience.

    I regularly use this site and don't agree with a few points made by Savie.

    The situation regarding links being posted in chat hasn't changed in years so why he suddenly has a problem with this I don't know. It's perfectly acceptable to exchange links using the private messaging system.

    The only issues come when a link is posted in the chat room itself or someone is deemed to be advertising through the private messaging system. This is only likely to occur though if a member is found to be sending the same link to numerous members.

    I'm sure the common sense rules mentioned above & aimed at restricting advertisers / spammers can be found on the vast majority of good chat sites.

    As for his other point regarding complaints about moderators, I'm a staff member on UKChatterbox and know for a fact that ALL complaints regarding staff are taken seriously. It's not in an administrators best interest to have poor moderators as it causes nothing but grief for both members and staff.

    As with all chat sites there are a minority of members who use the site for reasons other than to have a friendly chat. The decent members aren't difficult to spot however so it's really a case of what Savie is doing wrong when it comes to finding them.

    thanks for your comment adorable but the links in question where on topic, we wer talkin about 70's and 80's music using utube links, this has never been a problem until recently. please also note that the chester room has very few active members these days compared to 2 years ago ( yes ive been on ukcb for several years under various names, must get myself a life :( lol ), so whats gone wrong ? , ive never even had a warning in all my time on there till recently, then warnings kicks and bans for lots of people, is it the members or the staff that destoyed it ? , the only recent change is the staff, the members then went to chatshack or chatchaos instead so they could actualy speak.
