[Online chat rooms (or website) that is only meant for chatting, and not social media sharing] "Think of the online chatrooms, like Omegle, or Emeraldchat, and how they're flooded with guys saying "m" and not making conversation. ...

"I tried the options that were suggested in the comments section but still they didnt got me excited and there is still lots of rubbish and poor conversation skills."

"Yo, with proper capital, a new app could easily be developed for this. People would eat it up. How has someone not yet managed to sell this to investors? I'm utterly baffled.
