TeenChat further reinforces the nostalgia of Friendster where you can add people as friends. Aside from joining the group conversation in the chat room, you can add people you frequently talk to as friends. Once they accept, they will automatically be placed under the "Friends" tab on your profile. This will make keeping in touch with them easier.
Aside from group conversations, you can also send a private message. This seems to be the next popular mode of contact since not more than five minutes of creating an account, we were able to receive six direct messages. It is even more surprising that when we replied back to all six DMs, we got a reply from each. Granted, yes, that most of the direct messages were sexual in nature, it is noteworthy that the members are very much active and not bots at all. Just be vigilant at all times and mind your online activity.
In all chat rooms we have participated in, there is one prevalent theme and that is, plugging other social media platforms is strictly banned. This is, perhaps, to keep out pornographic content on the site, which is a major plus in our books!
If group conversations or private messages are not up to your speed, then you might find yourself enjoying the much more subdued style of TeenChat's blogs and forums. There is a bunch of written content you can read, ranging from "Pieces of Teen Advice" to "Gaming" and "Television Series." You can also leave comments to contribute more to the community.
Although there is a video function in the chat room, it is seldom used by members. We have noticed that the most used way of mingling with other members is through chat. If they wanted more contact, most users would exchange social media details and transfer mediums.
