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!

Omegle someone pretending to be me giving out my number without permission

I don't use omegle, yet somebody that knows me has been pretending to be me on this platform and handing out my phone number to strangers. So I was wondering if there was something you can do to stop this person from giving out my number without permission, since I've been receiving text messages and phone calls, and it has turned creepy and really annoying. You can contact me at this email: [protected]@hotmail.com

Omegle "banned"

I have apparently been banned for some time from Omegle, whereas I cannot find anything I did that would violate the rules of said site. My question here is, what would possibly be considered unsuitable for this site, let alone it's users? I have, as far as I'm concerned, not broken any "laws" of this site and find the apparent "ban" of my IP irrational and unfair. If the ban was justified I would like to know the reason behind said "ban". I highly recommend, if there are specific guidelines that is, stating them on your homepage to see what I'm allowed and not allowed to state, or in this case write to apparent "Strangers". I like to use the services provided by Omegle, but I simply cannot understand what rectifies this "ban" of my IP. If there is any apparent reason for said ban it would be highly appreciated if the staff of your company would let me know, otherwise I would kindly ask to remove the ban, as in my case I do not find myself guilty of writing anything that would not comply to the rules of your website.

Yours faithfully,

a gay deer

Omegle captcha

Every time I use omegle, which I thoroughly enjoy doing I am met with the incredibly irritating capchta feature which constantly asks me for confirmation that I am not a robot. I have submitted complaints about this feature before but consistently whenever I use omegle for an extended period of time the captcha feature reappears. I can guarantee I am not a robot or anything like that so please remove this irritating feature permanently from my IP address so I can get back to enjoying this website.

Omegle unfair ban

So, I was on Omegle and I was just trying to start a conversation with someone and I got no response after my 'hey.' And when I press ESC to get a new chat, I'm suddenly banned from the site. I'm pretty ticked off, as I did absolutely nothing wrong. Maybe someone thought I was a bot and reported me, I don't know. I just want my ban lifted. Especially since, once, again, I did nothing wrong.

Omegle ban for no reason?

So i was on omegle doing omegle things like talking to strangers but suddenly got banned when i changed to using interests for like 20 minutes. i put my interests down as flex, muscle, gym, stuff like that etc. and soon after was given a ban. the last conversation or chat i had was with another guy and we were just flexing different muscles and complimenting eachother for what we had and what we worked for. Im asking if i could receive and appeal for this very unjustly ban that shouldn't have happened...

Omegle captcha

Every time I try to connect to talk to someone the captcha feature pops up and I have to verify that I'm not a robot, I do not know why this was implemented but it is incredibly frustrating and is ruining my experience entirely. I ask that you please remove the captcha feature from my IP address so I an once again able to use omegle free of hassle.

Omegle unfair ban

I got banned, so I searched the internet knowing that I did nothing wrong. One of the reasons I get banned states : if you get disconnected many times. There are people who want to sex chat, and they search for females. And yes, when I tell them that I'm a guy they just exit the damn thing. So, as long as I don't have a report or something, I would like to remove my ban.

Omegle banned

Hello. I am over the age of 18 and I got banned for nothing at all. One minute I was on omegle and the next minute, I got banned. How it happened was I was goofing off with one of my friends and then it said I was banned. I don't know how this could've happened. If there is an explanation as to why I was banned, then please explain to me. If this issue could be fixed asap, that would be wonderful.
