Omegle chat

For a few months now I just can't connect anymore. I get a "cloudflare" thing and a verify that you're human captcha. And after I do input those, I get the Error connecting to server message. Please do something about that ? I mostly roleplay in the text section, no video or anything. I just want back the ability to roleplay. It is frustrating not knowing why I received a ban or whatever happened here.

Omegle error connecting

I have never had a problem on omegle before...suddenly I go on today and whenever I try to chat with someone who shares my interests, it tells me there's trouble connecting to the server. But when I try to chat without any interests, it works completely fine. I am unsure of what this could mean but I would be very happy if this issue could be resolved quickly. Thank you.

The first picture shows what happens when I turn on my interests, and the second what happens when I turn them off. Clearly one can see that when I try to chat with interests, it doesn't work.

Omegle error connecting

Suddenly, Omegle stopped working for me. In the beginning it appears a message saying to "Please click on the block to the left to enable video chat" but besides have all permissions enabled it keeps saying that there is an error trying to connect. At first this would only happen if I type something on the interests but now it happens every possible way. What is happening and how can I solve it?

Omegle no secure login

When opening my laptop today I noticed that your page was open, I asked my daughter about this as she was the last one to use it. She said a you tuber had mentioned this website, how it was a great way to find friends so she thought she would take a look. There is no secure log in or register details to provide proof of age. You literally open the page and chat. May I just add my daughter is 11 years old! There are men after men after men on theses video chats some I may add with no clothes on! Fortunately daughter did not see any of this but I sure did and was horrified that this website is so easily accessible. My daughter bless her is very naive and didn't understand it was an adult website. Please change your site so that there has to be secure register and legion save this sort of thing happening to other children. My daughter and I are very unset and concerned for our safety and others.
kind regards
S. Done

Omegle omegle chat, ip blacklisted

I haven't done anything wrong, but now, after getting back on last night for the first time in months, I'm being forced to do recaptchas all the time. This is the worst because I like to use the question mode, and people disconnect randomly from it and I immediately have to recaptcha AGAIN. Could I please get this soft-ban removed? Does anybody know how to contact Omegle's support?

Omegle risk to unknown school

Hello, I am Detective Michelle Gallegos and I work at the Seattle Police Department. I am also a Task Force Officer with the FBI. We received a tip that an Omegle user posted the following message: I am planing (sp) to do a school shooting. Hillcrest High School will be unsafe for awhile." See a screen shot on the following: https://imgur.com/a/Mkdmm
The tipster was the person who this comment was made to. It was posted on January 12th, 2018 at approx 11:33 PM (PST). The tipster's IP address is 50.47.134.240.
An open source check has revealed that there is no Hillcrest High School in the state of Washington but there are schools with that name in other states. I am wondering if you can check the ip address of the second person involved in the chat and advise what city/state they are in. Then I can forward the tip to the correct jurisdiction who can look into the on-line threat. I'm sure at Omegle it is very important to balance users rights with public safety. Thank you for any assistance.

Omegle server issues with omegle connection

There are a lot of black screens and lags on Omegle lately, 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 always getting worse and irritating. I've also checked the website and I noticed that sometimes it's 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 banned

Hey!

I was just in a conversation with someone who asked me repeatedly to show my chest to him. I said no each time. I do not understand why I was banned.

I am over 18, and I didn't show anything.

A popup with 3 sec countdown lead me to a porn area, which I was not trying to get at. I clicked get me out of here the second time because it would let me leave and then I was informed of the ban. I am asking that the ban is lifted because it was not put there for any good reason.

I don't know if he somehow reported me or something, but when I said no for the THIRD time, I sent the message and clicked to go to a new conversation. And that is when the popup came on screen.

**for the category, I put sexual abuse because sexual harassment was not available**

Omegle man on omegle takes a picture of me and finds all my accounts on instagram and snapchat

I was on omegle one day, and I met a guy, he took a picture of me and I left because he said he wanted to hack me. I was skipping through another day until the guy said he has my IP address, snapchat, and instagram account. I thought he was trolling me, but look here. He has all my accounts and told me he has talked to a few people through my accounts and that he will expose my picture if I do not do what he asks. He wants me to take videos of my naked body while he is looking, if I do not pleasure him, he will send all my information to everyone (all my friends and on omegle). I am scared for my life and dont know who to contact.

First, breath. If you have shown him anything you shouldn't have and you are underage, you could get him labeled as a sex offender. If you are over age, it is at least harassment. Get the police involved

Omegle omegle blacklist

My IP Address was blacklisted from Omegle even though did not break any of the terms of service that were listed in the terms of service. Now I have to answer a captcha every time I try to use it and it is very irritating to do. Please tell me what I can do to have this removed, and how I am going to avoid this happening to me in the future, thank you.

Omegle captcha

I keep on trying to get into to good conversation however the Captcha verification is frustrating to deal with. I am not a bot, and I only want to use the site to explore the world by talking to people. I do not wish to use the site if I have to go through this process. Also there is way too many old men looking for minors to sexually connect with.

Omegle recaptcha

I got banned today. I'm not a robot and 99% of the chat only last 2 seconds. Please remove the recaptcha. It is very annoying and doesn't seem to be keeping actual spammers off the website. It only restricts the people who get too many annoying people and have to disconnect often. Please just get rid of it. I am so pissed about this, I'm just trying to enjoy the site. Is that so much to ask?!

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.
