I've done online chat on and off since the mid-90s. I jump into the various chat rooms of the swing sites we belong too, looking to just talk about swinging in general and perhaps have a chance to talk to people that are not far away, see if there is any interest in meeting. But it's more of a social thing for me, not looking to cam (will scare people!), do cyber-sex (enjoy real sex with real people)

Most of the people online are friendly, polite..but geez there are some that are a real pain:

• The winers and complainers. They can't meet anyone, don't like the swing site, there are nothing but fakers here, etc.
   
  
• The people that get on their high horse. I was watching a chatter go off on why women have to shave their pubic hair...just on and on and on..(sort of like my rant...lol)
   
  
• The people who think their tastes in swinging is THE only way to go.
   
  
• The instant gratification folks. "Hi looking for a couple to fuck now!"
   
  
• The singe guys using couple's profiles.
   
  
• The rudeness that people use, hiding behind the chat. We're a couple, but I'm the one that does the online swinging tasks. So it's just me chatting. People initiate a private chat and get pissed off that both of us are not chatting. I am up front about that, so rather than an Ok no thanks you get some rude remark.
  

I have made a few contacts via the online chat, so I feel it's mostly worth it but it's like being up to your ass in alligators in these rooms!
