Chatting in my point view is a very useful way to develop your skills in how to connect your words and sentences in order to express your point view in a topic or any discussion. I am not new to the chatting world, I can tell any one who has weak typing skills, that the best fun way to improve your self is by chatting. Like any thing else, If chatting is used too much or in a wrong way, this will lead to the danger zone.
Who ever go or being pushed to that zone, will for sure suffer. I will classify the Danger zone into two, A & B.

Danger Zone:

A- Being Hurt:

1- From stranger:

When ever a debate or discussion takes place in the main chat, there must be some different views, If the people who are chatting to each others are matured and having a little sense of manners, then it will turn into a safe chat.But If every or some parts are fighting each others, by using angry words, or swearing , this will lead to hurt, even for others whom are not into that topic, this will affect their mood and will most probably will ruin their entire day!

Mostly when chatting about religions, a fight would take place. I am a member who has a religion, If I want others whom are non believers in god to respect me, or to respect what I believe, I must treat them in politeness and in good manners. I should not force them to believe what I believe it is their freedom of choice. My duty is to show and inform about my religion when asked or needed, but if they don't want that then I should never annoy them. I in the other hand will be hurt if someone talks bad about my religion, I expect respect from the other side, so any one can get hurt from the chat room since it's a place where people come from different backgrounds, different cultures, different beliefs and even from different level of manners. The main chat room's members range from very low to very high quality members, so your chances of having a good chat depends on the other side. This chat abuse might hurt you for few minutes or one whole day, not for ever. How to prevent it, well, By not being part of it, or by leaving it when fire seen by miles.

By time, when you become a regular member in the main chat, you will know the members who always start fighting, so avoiding them is better thing to do. At the end, time is money, and your goal is to learn or to have fun, so leaving is better than seeking.



2-From a Friend:

When you give all your love and care to someone you think and believe that he or she is your best friend, then you get hurt because of his or her words and bazaar attitude , now that is something really  going to make you fall in pain. This is the worst thing happened to me here in MyEC which made me decided to leave the main chat once in for all. It happened to me, couple of times here, and I can tell you for sure, you're going to be really shocked and confused from what you might experience from this situation.

Put your self in my shoes, someone you treated as a brother or sister, you stuck with him or her, you gave him or her the best words you’ve got and you made his or her day most of the time but when ever you advice that person, because you see that a wrong path has been taken by him or her, or strange attitude comes from him or her, he or she mistreats you, and lack in respect with you which leaves you in a fog of understanding the meaning of trust. It really hurts, and my brain tells me now to be a friend but by distance.

This feeling of pain may last for long time, and the effect would be higher if that person is very close to your heart. You need a loyal trusted friend who can give you a hand to stand again on the hard floor, also you need Dr. Time as well to close your wounds and you need your inner self to be strong and resistible to bad thoughts.

How to prevent this? well, It is hard to prevent it, its like a virus, you can't see it, and it may cause you a severe damage. The only way to recover, is to move on. And as my dearest friend " Nafis" told me to have the philosophy of " Any way" , It is to do good any way, even if your best friend mistreated you, do good anyway. Don't care about losing a friend, but care of being the good side. Nafis wrote this in a blog, which helped me in my life, I am really thankful to her, she is one of the wisest persons here in MyEC and her friendship worth more than a mine of gold in Chile!!!



B-Being Addicted:

It is really a disease, when you are all day and all night chatting. It is fun in the beginning, but then it will be the same every time. You might develop your English Language by doing this but this development by time won't go any further cause you are doing the same thing over and over, which will make you in the same level. This beautiful website does not only have a Chat room! There are many areas where you can develop your English language with. It will be really fun if you try every part of MyEC, such as: Blogging, groups and living in and between the forum corners.

There are two types of chatters in MyEC chat room, those who are trying to develop their English, and those who are only having fun. It is OK to have fun, I don't have any thing against it, but what I am trying to say, is to look away from this screen! Have a break for awhile, visit your real friends, check on your family, enjoy life out there, go for a walk, go shopping what ever, life is not only chatting with people you barely know! Just wake up for a moment for god sake!!

I can tell that the Addicted chatters are feeling sad because of this habit, yet they can't admit it. Why they always feel bored?  Sometimes they type this word!

I told that advice to some of my friends who are almost 24 hours in the main chat, and they felt offended, I told them, that a person can't see the holes in his cloths, but a friend can be his mirror. No one is right for ever, no one is wrong all the time, so why not listening to the advice that might make you feel sorry for all this time wasted.

Honestly, I was Addicted person before, I missed family meetings, I missed going out with friends, I had back problem cause of setting for long and I wasted my time on people I don't know and I am definitely sure that they don't remember me now. I am not saying quit chatting, but be wise with your time and health. Yes, there are many members we believe that they are like a family to us and we trust and love them, but come on! "Get a life!" be balanced and I believe that they will respect that.


At the end, I wish my words are not misunderstood, this is my point view of chatting, you may accept it, you may not, at least take it as an advice!

Regards with love
