Firstly, I must admit that it took me a while to find a site that discusses chat room culture. I recently created a site after spending months in a specific room and then being betrayed in the most horrid way. It got me thinking... when and why do people overstep the line. Surely, most people go to chat rooms to meet people with similar interests... whether that be adult, quiz, kids, general etc rooms. I have however found that some people can take things very seriously to the point of intense harassment. How free is freedom of speech in chat rooms when when does funny turn hurtful?than you.
