My Idea For A Website--Give Me Feedback

The website is called Xochat. Here it is:

Xochat

Main Idea
Xochat is a site where people can make chat rooms, and enjoy the experience. There is multiple types of chat rooms, great services, and a good report system. And there’s no registration required!

Creating A Chat Room
To create a chat room you name it and choose either a…
Public  Chatroom: A public chatroom is easily accessible from the sites chatroom list.
or a..
Private Chatroom: Users have to enter the chatroom name, and an access code to enter the chatroom
and then choose whether you want users to communicate by text (people type in text to communicate), voice (uses microphones in a user’s computer for people to talk to each other), or video (uses a webcam in a user’s computer for people to  to communicate).
Entering Chatrooms
To enter a chatroom for the first time, you must enter a nickname to use in the chatroom.


Inappropriate Content
Text chatrooms are recommended for users under 18, because certain words are blocked from use. Since there is no voice recognition, we may not do the same for voice and video chat. However, under each user’s nickname there is a report button, and if 3 people in the chatroom report you, you are banned from that chatroom. Once you are banned from 3 chatrooms, your IP address is banned from the site, and you may contact us to get unbanned from the site. If you are banned from the site more than 5 times, than you are permanently blocked



Tell me what you think!

That's a really cool idea! It seems kinda like IRC, but slightly different. Do you have a program that you could use to create it?

No. For now it's just an idea. At the moment, I don't feel like spending $1000 on software, and taking the time to learn it.

Re: My Idea For A Website--Give Me Feedback

New idea:

A basic chatroom is free, but has a limit of 24 users in the chatroom at a time, and advertisements are shown on the sidebar, and when the chatroom is loading.

For $4.99, you can get a prenium chatroom which removes the advertisements and the limit for the number of users in the chat.

And also, this will probably use Adobe Flash.

I probably will.

Oh, and BTW, I'd like some feedback specifically on the reporting system.

You would  need to be careful though. No registration makes it sound easy to hack  hmm

Re: My Idea For A Website--Give Me Feedback

Actually, you should have to register. But it would be simply...

Username:
Password:
E-Mail (optional):

and then word verification. Something you could do in ten seconds.

Very exploitable I think.

Maybe, that way it won't be easy for kids to kick people for stupid reasons lol. But 7 seems like a bit too much, maybe just 5 would be okay?

Re: My Idea For A Website--Give Me Feedback

If you could program it, I think it's a good idea.  smile

But some chat rooms might not want words to be blocked. You should make it so THEY can censor the words if they want.

Learn Flash. That's how I plan on making it.

Let's see... it'll take me 5 years to get the money to buy it, 3 years to learn it, 1 year to make the site. It'll be up in my 2nd year of college!  big_smile

Actually, you can download free Flash compilers online.


Yawn, another boring text signature. I should really make something better.

According to the Scratch team, ircs breed trolls
They don't, but that doesn't stop the Scratch team from closing all irc related topics
