Omegle banned for no reason

me and my friend were on omegle with the tiktok band. we met other tiktokkers and throughout this time we rarely cussed and made no sexual references. we are 16 and we got banned and put over to the over 18 section. we apologise for anything we did to cause moderation to take cause in banning us but we did not commit to anything against your policy. we were fully clothed and were very obedient. this happened on sunday 18th august 2019. please fix your moderation as we saw male genitals constantly, yet were were banned.

Omegle unclear ban - possible terms of service violation (section of violation not given)

As I logged on to Omegle at the beginning of the day of August 18, 2019, I was greeted to a plain message of which that states either me, someone on my computer, or someone on my network was responsible for a Terms of Service violation. This is frankly quite peculiar for no one on my network besides me utilizes Omegle to sap away at my free time. Though I have attempted to find another outlet to contact Omegle and the administrators directly, I could not find one to no avail for this is a situation that is best resolved through the medium of diplomacy. Thus, here I am to politely question perhaps what was the underlying cause of the Omegle ban. This is due to the fact that a blanket statement of a possible Terms of Services Violation is a very good step in informing a user of a ban, yet a person who wants to better know why this situation occurred is left helplessly befuddled. Once more, I wish to reiterate that I have come to this outlet to search for a possible answer to this deep mystery. This is a very simple issue to resolve, in fact, I believe this could be one of the easiest cases of unclear outcomes to be resolved. All that must be done is that I contact Omegle and Omegle responds as to why this particular situation played out. Though I do not understand why I have been banned, I will and now take all responsibility for my actions and deeply apologize for any transgressions against the Terms of Service. As a result, a restoration of my access to Omegle would be much appreciated and would restore my faith in Omegle once more. Thank you very much for understanding my current issue and I hope this issue will be resolved soon.

Omegle banned for no apparent reason

it happened on the 18th of August 2019 when i was banned on omegle for no reason. i was not doing anything inappropriate, i was just talking to people and also people were skipping me multiple times so i do not understand how i can get banned? Omegle has done this to me multiple times and i never understood why i got banned because other people do stuff that is inappropriate and they do not get banned? So why do i get banned? Can Omegle please not ban me ?

Omegle banned without reason

This is the 4th time i have banned in the past week for no reason. There's people with unwanted nudity that aren't getting banned. My brother and i have done nothing but meet website users and talk with them. We follow all the guidelines to the website every time we're on. I would appreciate it if this would stop so i could enjoy using the website.

Omegle the person who moderates the omegle.com site

i have been blocked again because people are skipping me due to the fact I am being a good girl and not have my junk out, they skip me because of what i look like, you say you are moderating the site but people that dont do anything wrong are the people who get blocked and the people who have their junk out and bully are allowed to stay online, how is that fair?

Omegle banned for no reason

I have been banned 2 consecutive times now for not doing anything inappropriate. My camera stays on my face the entire time. I have had pleasant conversations and met some very nice people worldwide, however after being banned for a reason that I have not committed is very upsetting. Can you review proof before Banning a person, otherwise a person can submit a Ban on another individual for no reason other than a prank.

Omegle unsolicited calls/texts/pics

Someone is spamming my phone number as well as insta account details via omegle and I've been getting pics and calls non stop.

In the past 24 hours I've gotten over 500-600 pics from random strangers. There needs to be a way to fix this. I am begging you, whoever has found a fix to this, please let me know.

Is there a way to stop this? Please help.

a few months ago, I encountered a user on Omegle displaying child pornography. I was completely horrified. I made detailed reports to every law enforcement agency and advocacy group I could find, but most told me there was nothing they could do, or didn't reply at all. my local police told me that reporting to the FBI was the best option.

I would encourage anyone who has witnessed anything remotely illicit on Omegle to file detailed reports with the FBI, as well as the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. I've included links below. (I believe the reports can be anonymous, if you prefer.)

https://www.fbi.gov/tips
https://report.cybertip.org/

I have also made news tips to several news outlets, and I would encourage you to do the same. news tip locations can be easily found by searching "___ news tips" or something similar.

and lastly, here is a Change.org petition about Omegle that I ask you to sign (sorry, but you'll have to copy/paste the link).

I came to complain as i want this to be resolved quickly. i love how i get banned but the creeps that try to undress people are still roaming about the website like they are doing nothing wrong.

Omegle banned for no reason!!!

I was doing pretty much nothing on omegle except talking to people, nothing inappropriate. And I was ip banned for no reason at all, and honestly I didn't deserve to get banned so please unban me I was just trying to have fun, I am old enough to be on omegle too. So no good reason to ban me at all. No good reason I should have been banned, I was following guidelines and what not, so there was no actual problem.

Omegle banned

Hello Omegle! I was just on Omegle and then I was banned for no reason. I don't think I have said anything bad or mean to anyone. If anything there were multiple being mean to me. If I cursed or said anything to offend anyone, I sincerely apologize and I am hoping that you can lift my banishment. I honestly had no intention of hurting anyone's feelings. I sincerely apologize and I hope you can allow me to go back onto Omegle very soon! Thank you so much!

Omegle omegle banned for no evident reason

continuously banned for no reason at all. Lay or sitting down with my face fully in the camera view, shouldn't be a cause of ban considering the other things that regularly are displayed there. I can't seem to find any other form of contact so I'm writing a complaint here. I study psychology and I enjoy going on omegle from time to time for intriguing conversation with different personalities. I never do much other than converse while showing my face and everything is mutual in my conversational history. These bans must stop!

About Omegle

Screenshot Omegle
Omegle.com is an online chat platform that connects users with strangers from around the world for one-on-one conversations. The service is free to use and does not require users to register, emphasizing anonymity and ease of use. Omegle offers several modes of communication, including text and video chat options. Users can start a chat session on the website and are randomly paired with another person in a "chatroulette" style.

One of the distinctive features of Omegle is the ability to add interests before initiating a chat, which the system uses to match users with someone who has similar interests, potentially improving the relevance of the conversation. However, if no matching interests are found, users are paired with a completely random stranger.

Omegle also includes a "Spy Mode," where a user can pose a question to two strangers and observe their conversation without participating, or be one of the two strangers answering a question posed by a "spy."

The platform has a simple interface and does not offer additional features such as friend lists, profile creation, or account history. It is designed to provide a spontaneous and ephemeral chat experience with no strings attached. Users should be aware that conversations are not moderated, which can sometimes lead to inappropriate content or interactions. Omegle includes a warning on its site about the potential for exposure to explicit content and advises users to be cautious.

As a chat service, Omegle caters to individuals looking for a random chat experience and the opportunity to meet new people without the commitment of a social network. It is accessible from various devices with internet connectivity and does not require any software downloads to function.
