Honestly, opinion on dirty chat rooms swings further than the reality does.

The step most people skip with dirty chat rooms is reading the profile before messaging.

What I ended up doing about why threads go quiet:

  • Keep identifying details off dirty chat rooms until there is a reason to share them
  • Log what actually happens on dirty chat rooms for a week — otherwise you are guessing

Going against Luke on dirty chat rooms here:one adjustment worth making with dirty chat rooms: treat the first week as observation only.

Would still like to hear from someone who stuck with dirty chat rooms past the first month.

Depends heavily on context — dirty chat rooms can be fine in cities and thin outside them.

The checklist I use now for dirty chat rooms:

  • Judge dirty chat rooms on conversations, not on match counts
  • Compare dirty chat rooms against one alternative at the same time — that is where most of the wasted time goes
  • Treat your first week with dirty chat rooms as reconnaissance rather than outreach
