I cannot believe how ‘clicky’ they are for a virtual environment. Hahaha. Why would you join a Sex Story site to get together and talks about topics other than sex and give each other fake hugs? You should look for a site full of motivational tidbits, cute avatars, popm poms and ponytails.
The rooms are always full of like 25 dudes and 3 chicks who probably look nothing like their profile pics and only talk to the other 2 chicks. Yet all the guys jump on them as soon as they enter like the seagulls on Finding Nemo “Mine!, Mine!, Mine!”.
The only likely good chat room is the ‘ladies only’ room where lesbians are talking about fucking to their hearts content. Please please please let me in (no pun intended). I won’t even put my penis in you if you don’t want me too.
The picture ones are pretty good to, so thank you to those that host them.

Lmao, when I first joined, I used to visit the chatrooms quite often and I do agree that sometimes there are not many girls there. About the lesbians room, they won't let you in, its called a 'lesbians room' for a reason. Nowadays, I only visit the picture galleries and even that only when I'm hosting one.
You know if you want to meet women, you should visit the forums more often. A lot of the girls don't go to chatrooms.

I've not heard any clicking in the chat rooms, maybe you need your ears tested? Cliquish is the word, dear, derived from clique and it's pronounced "cleekish" or if you're saying clique it's "cleek". This isn't anything personal, I'm just trying to get the world to pronounce the word "clique" properly.

I've noticed the same vibe, too. Very tight, close-knit groups. It's hard to mingle and get to know people because of their clique-like tendencies, so I find myself visiting the chat room(s) less and less. The forums are much more attractive anyway, lol
Are you truly awake?

You're welcome, sir. As for your original question, I've only lurked in the chat rooms, but they do seem rather cliquish, but I think that's only natural when like-minded people get together on a regular basis. I think the forums are quite like this too, but probably to a lesser extent. And I also think that fantasy counts for more than reality does on here.

You must have missed the story chat room train with Catnip and Elit. We'll be arriving shortly at a story site near you. (fucking our brains out while wearing Starwars themed costumes.)

In one of the chat rooms the moderator told me to stop writing. I'm not sure how but apparently I offended someone in the online clique he rolls with, and he told me to stop. Would have continued but, it takes a while to re-build a new profile. haha.
Way to remain unbiased moderator. The other person was clearly offside.

Sometimes the chat rooms are really fun. If a person starts their own chat room though you should respect their rules if you go in there. I usually look to see if there's anyone I know in a chat room before I go in. Sometimes I just go in to say hello to people I know. I have done scenes in chat rooms too, and carried on conversations or played games with people. Some people are just there to find people to cyber with, and that's fine too. There are names for the rooms, and descriptions, like the BDSM room, which is pretty much self explanatory, and the Bedroom, which is for open sex and cyber talk. Some people will be regulars in rooms for awhile and then never seen again. People come and go, cliques form and disperse, things change. Many of the people I used to play online with are on at different times than I can be on now, or they've left Lush, or dropped me from their friends list but some remain and I like to chat with them when I get a chance. Mostly I use them as a chance to talk dirty to people and inquire into their sexual desires, because why not? Some people are more easily offended than me and I wonder what they're doing here at all, but most of the people I've met online at Lush have similar reasons for being here. Try this if Dale Carnegie isn't really your thing.

Perhaps, I shouldn't generalize about all chatrooms due to a few experiences however, it would appear from the posts within this thread topic (which has somehow disappeared) that other site users feel the same way. "I use them as a chance to talk dirty to people and inquire into their sexual desires, because why not?" If feel exactly the same which is why I was so taken back when I was asked to stop by a moderator.

personally, if someone wants to take dirty in a chat, feel free. if that means hitting on the girls (this happens a lot) and the girls flirt back, great. if this means hitting on the girls, and the girls say 'yeah, you know? no thank you' and you persist, that's when you should get slapped down. think of it as a singles bar - if the girl you're hitting on shows no interest, move on - don't start grabbing her ass and going 'come on, baby' or worse, pulling out your cock and chasing her around with it. THAT is why the girls are quick to shut you down - they've experienced that kind of behavior far too often and have very little tolerance for it.

I would visit the chat rooms often when I first joined Lush. Figured it was a great way to meet people and let them meet me. In some I became the center of attention and in some I was basically ignored, just like things can be IRL sometimes. And I did make a few good friends too. Over time, I found that I prefered to forum over the chat room and just prefer to chat with my friends. I still go in once in a while but agree they can be cliquish. But if I find that they are and no one wants to chat, I leave. There are a lot of other ways on Lush to occupy my time.

I agree with Her Royal Spriteness... If ya say hi and the other person is willing, go for it... however, if on the other hand they say no... move along. I highly recommend reading the profiles, a lot of folks do not do that. It will save a lot of hassle. As a chat moderator, I try to welcome everyone into the rooms. The rooms are not for everyone and that is ok. If ya come into a room and are bullied or threatened, that is certainly not tolerated, send me the chat. A lot of people come in and just sit there, never saying a word... JUMP into the conversation, say hi, introduce yourself... something.

The picture ones are pretty good to, so thank you to those that host them.
I've gone into the chat rooms about three times, and twice gone into a private one to talk to a friend.
I don't want to cyber or tell you why I don't want to, nor be pushed into doing it surreptitiously, or tell you what I'm wearing or how much of a 10" willy I can fit into my mouth and my Happy Bits; sometimes I just want a chat (about normal things, if such a thing exists). Y'know... like... icecream (not during sex) and places I like to go (not for sex), and stuff people like to do (that isn't sex). I know this is a sex stories site. But life isn't all about sex (apparently), and I have already learnt so much about people in general that it would be nice to meet them via the chat rooms without fear of needing to declare my "a/s/l" and boob size.
But other people LOVE that! And that's okay.
I have never yet seen anybody in the rooms that aren't labelled as being sex-type chat (and I would brave it if they were), although I know from another thread people often have non-sex chats in the other rooms. I took the time to ask about what I was wondering about, rather than having a strop and venting about. But that's how I do stuff.
I would say that in order to join a community, in whatever form it is, one would need to spend a bit more time there, gently getting to know people before launching into what you want - perhaps spend a bit of time working out what they want first? Just an idea.
Another idea would be to start your own room and wait for a weekend when people in your timezone are about and completely off their heads drunk and gagging for it. You might meet the love of your life.

I usually enjoy myself in the chat rooms. Of course there is always a chance of someone acting like an ass, but most times if it's really blatant, they'll get booted for it. Generally, if I am polite, say hello to people, decline politely if not interested and participate in conversations, I get the same treatment in return.
