Greet the person before evaluating the match
A simple hello and one ordinary question creates a fairer start than comments about appearance, demands for location, or an immediate request to move elsewhere.
Respect improves the match
Random chat etiquette
for both sides of the screen.
Start with basic courtesy, let the other person keep their boundaries, and end without creating unnecessary pressure.

GOOD TO KNOW
Etiquette does not require staying in an uncomfortable interaction. Leave immediately when safety or consent becomes uncertain.
Treat “no” and hesitation as complete answers
Do not pressure for names, social accounts, sexual content, money, another camera angle, or a longer conversation. Consent must remain voluntary throughout the session.
Leave cleanly when the conversation is done
A brief goodbye is polite when the exchange is respectful. Immediate exit is appropriate when someone is threatening, coercive, deceptive, or unsafe.
- Do not record or redistribute another person without permission.
- Do not show people in your room who did not consent.
- Do not use insults to force a reaction.
QUICK ANSWERS
What people usually ask.
Is it rude to leave quickly?
Not necessarily. Random chat is voluntary. A brief goodbye is useful when comfortable, but safety never requires advance notice.
How do I handle silence?
Allow a pause, ask one different question, or end politely. Filling every second can make the exchange feel more pressured.
