Is... is this still a thing? ;o;
(just wondering cause I want to connect with people but I've been bullied so much AND TC WAS TRIGGERING AF)

I'm too socially awkward to even TC

[smaksmilla]

Way too socially awkward to TC as well. It's the kind of thing I wish I was able to do and I get low-key jealous when people are able to tie connections with people and have fun socializing.

I'm socially awkward as well and I'm super camera shy.

TC was always pretty chill though. You could pop in for a few mins and say hello, then hop off if you had to go somewhere. Back in the day, there was somebody on TC literally all the time. It wasn't uncommon to come in and find somebody asleep while having TC up. I know lots of times I'd be in TC with music turned on just chillin while I studied or something.. then take a break and say whatsup to whoever popped in. Usually pretty low key and nothingto stress about.

Not to mention TC hardly works for me half the time, haha. My computer does not like it

Have you tried a different browser? It eats up a lot of space for me when I used it on Chrome. So I usually only opened TC in IE. Worked like a champ doing that.

Yeah, it seems to be my computer. I used to bring out my bro's laptop so I could TC because it wouldn't load at all for me. I don't think it's too bad for me anymore, but I'm not sure how much my computer likes it still haha

Do you mean Clraik's room on TC, or TC as a whole? I just... man I feel like the people on there can turn on you like a pack of wolves. When I'm feeling daring (and alienated from society) enough I sometimes venture on there - will even cam up... but inevitably people start bullying me. They start by making fun of really stupid things, like LOL SHE'S ASIAN LET'S START BEING RACIST... It always begins with only a couple random people in the textbox, one will make a racial slur and another will say I act/look like I'm in high school, or maybe even say my username is dumb or my voice is annoying or I'm too quiet. And I've tried ignoring these initial shots, I've tried to making clever retorts, I've tried laughing in good humor... doesn't matter. Then someone on cam notices their opportunity to be witty/bold/cool in front of a group whose attention has been directed to someone else, and they redirect the new audience by scornfully declaring on mic, "Yeah, I agree with x y and z in chat. What's with this chick anyway? She probably eats dogs/she thinks she's all that/she doesn't belong here/etc" At this point, other people on cam start to chime in and at that point, I abruptly close all my tabs and give up on society once more.

Or so it feels that way.

Oh man, that doesn't sound too great. I was talking about the ck TC room - I can't speak for the rest of the rooms. In the TC room, we usually keep things under control and everyone gets along. Sometimes we have trolls come in but they are handled pretty quickly.
