Omegle I was banned for no reason

This incident happened on January 1st, 2019. I was on Omegle a few minutes ago, playing my ukulele, and I ended a chat to go to another tab for a minute. I come back to the omegle tab and pressed "new chat" and it just took me to the banned screen. I did absolutely NOTHING wrong. The banning system must be broken because I can be banned for playing a song on my ukulele but they won't ban old men with their genitals in their hands saying things like "I'll f*ck you whether you want me to or not." I don't understand why I was banned and would appreciate it if the ban could be lifted.

I was just chilling with my bestie [He was off camera] while talking to people, then out of nowhere, I got banned after I clicked 'new chat'. I wasn't being weird or showing off, but I got banned. Hopefully this ban gets lifted because, , I didn't do anything.

Omegle banned

Hello, I would like to know if i can get unbanned because my laptop was banned because people were skipping me a lot which isn't my fault. I can even go on the website without getting the "You are Banned" sign on my screen and it says if you dint do anything wrong you should be unbanned and it's been roughly 3 days since i've been banned. I love coming on omegle just to get some quality content for my youtube channel

Omegle issue with recaptcha

This seems to be happening if i am on the websie for more than an hour, where the recaptcha thing forces me to prove i am not a robot before every single converstion. it is very frustrating and upsetting. please fix this so i can go on omegle. It also makes me verify through repeated proof that i am a robot. i would really appeciate it if i could go on omegle without all of this so i can make new friends and meet new people.

Omegle omegle website

So I was just browsing your website and out of nowhere, I got banned for no reason. I am 13 with parents consent and was happily enjoying myself talking to random strangers. Although now it recommends me porn and gay porn websites as a button to click on. As well as this all the video chats now are just men masturbating with the camera focused on their penis. Bearing in mind I AM 13 and under the age of consent. This is illegal and personally I consider this. Sexual abuse.

Omegle server issues with omegle connection and white screens, please, hurry up : (

There are a lot of white screens on Omegle, I thought it was depended by me, but it isn't apparentely because I asked for this server's issue some people and confrimed so. Can you fix and check about it, please? : (... it's irritating. I've also checked the website and I noticed that it's often going work and some it isn't and i'm starting to think its own system isn't reliable anymore and that's a real pity because there aren't alternatives about it. I really hope you'll fix all of it and i'm looking forward to a reply back of yours as soon possible as.

Omegle lost connection

http://logs.omegle.com/0b3048e932769cf6

This guy and I really liked each other. :( Then his server lost connection, which has happened to me before for no reason. Is there any way you can reconnect us somehow...? I honestly really liked this guy and I never got the chance to respond to him fully because he lost his connection to the server. I would love the chance to talk to him again and send him the last message I wanted to...I never got to finish what I was saying.

Omegle unethical behavior, lies

I think that it is very funny that I just got banned for telling someone "I don't want to see your penis, that's gross. you shouldn't be doing that...there are little kids here." Then again what do I know. I guess having people show their dicks all the time is okay but someone telling them something is wrong and get them banned for 'possible bad behavior'. Maybe you should fix this problem...I'm very tired of getting banned for simply sitting there doing nothing wrong.

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

As of recently when I go to Omegle and click video for some reason I can only see myself and I see a gray screen where the stranger is supposed to be. I also don't even have the option to mute my speaker or turn on/off my camera. There's even gray on my end too but I am able to see myself. It's a different lay out than before. If it helps, I use Safari on my MacBook Pro. Is there a new site attached to Omegle? Please help.

Omegle abusive clients

Omegle is supposedly billed as a chat site and frowns upon sexual activity - or so they tell you. Every time I go to Omegle, I get asked for my gender and age, if I refuse, I get abuse. Other times people tell me theirs and I tell them I don't need to know this and they give me abuse.
If this site is supposed to be non-sexual chat friendly then why is it I am banned for defending myself against idiot kids who only want to masturbate?

Omegle awful update...!

What the [censored] happened to omegle with this new update? I can no longer mute my mic which is the biggest load of [censored] I have ever seen! Chat lag is a huge issue all of a sudden with a big chunk of messages flooding in at once after a minute or two. Will absolutely not be using this site until these issues are fixed. Please please please please please please fix this.

Omegle new/new chat buttons not working

As of recently, the 'new' and 'new chat' buttons don't seem to be working. I can connect to a chat from the main page, but once the chat is ended and one of us has disconnected, I cannot reconnect to a new chat. Clicking both new and new chat do nothing, and pressing the esc button on my keyboard does nothing. I have to reload the page or click the omegle icon to go back to homepage to try again.

Omegle bug

I have encountered a fairly unique bug, after either me or the chatpartner dissconects Im not able to start a new chat, either by hitting escape or by clicking "New" or "New Chat"

Im able to get a new partner by reloading the page and starting a text chat over the mainpage, and if I want to disconnect with someone the escape key works fine, its only when a chat has ended that Im unable to start a new one in any way.

Problem is only encountered on text chat, on videochat it works as usual.

Omegle captcha

Look i understand you guys put Captcha in to avoid the spam bots and stuff but its really not working and you are just forcing us to do all these captchas just to contact a bot anyways. then we have to redo another just to talk to another bot! then the captcha is too retarded to register your correct answers so it keeps giving new ones please just remove this captcha. its just making the site worse. id rather go through bots and no captcha than capthcha with bots.

Omegle recaptcha

18/12/2018

The recaptcha box is popping up every single conversation and trying to solve some of the picture ones is impossible. Example: telling me to click all the traffic lights when there is only one large traffic light so I click every single box containing some of the traffic light and somehow this is unacceptable. This problem occurs every time I use omegle for a certain period of time and if it doesn't I will get hit with a random ban for one week for no apparent reason at all.
I am so sick of this and it has been happening for years with no change as if the owners of this website do not even care about this problem at all.

A resolution would be to remove this god awful captcha box and not ban people for no reason. If you want to ban people please hire a moderator to do it and not let it be automatic after a certain period of time.

This really is shocking and makes the website unuseable for a whole week.

Fix this now it is affecting everyone!

About Omegle

Screenshot Omegle
Omegle.com is an online chat platform that connects users with strangers from around the world for one-on-one conversations. The service is free to use and does not require users to register, emphasizing anonymity and ease of use. Omegle offers several modes of communication, including text and video chat options. Users can start a chat session on the website and are randomly paired with another person in a "chatroulette" style.

One of the distinctive features of Omegle is the ability to add interests before initiating a chat, which the system uses to match users with someone who has similar interests, potentially improving the relevance of the conversation. However, if no matching interests are found, users are paired with a completely random stranger.

Omegle also includes a "Spy Mode," where a user can pose a question to two strangers and observe their conversation without participating, or be one of the two strangers answering a question posed by a "spy."

The platform has a simple interface and does not offer additional features such as friend lists, profile creation, or account history. It is designed to provide a spontaneous and ephemeral chat experience with no strings attached. Users should be aware that conversations are not moderated, which can sometimes lead to inappropriate content or interactions. Omegle includes a warning on its site about the potential for exposure to explicit content and advises users to be cautious.

As a chat service, Omegle caters to individuals looking for a random chat experience and the opportunity to meet new people without the commitment of a social network. It is accessible from various devices with internet connectivity and does not require any software downloads to function.
