on 3/12/2009 Where does a more conservative gay male go to for friendly chat? How about a place for meeting guys for friends and maybe more? I'm not interested in the "sex as friends" garbageI found on gay.com and the old Yahoo chats. I know AOHell has the same guys as gay.com does. Basically put, I am homosexual, but not gay... due to the values. I assume to stay out of the gay community and its sex and superficial values. I tend to be way deeper than that.I want to find peeps like me, good natured people, not out for a 10 minute relationship... then get dumped. I want to find real people who value other good people for friendship, fellowship, maybe even relating. But where to look is impossible. So, where does one go to find these people? Gay and gay friendly churches didn't work either. That really shocked me to see it didn't.

on 2/11/2009 Try the following site, which supports audio, video and phone chat. Best of all, it's 100% free: http://www.gayfriendschat.com

on 6/23/2007 The best gay chat rooms I've found are at http://hottestmales.com
Totally free.... and ad-free too...
And they claim it always will be.
They are so much better than gay.com...

on 7/6/2006 IRC means Internet relay chat, and it's very popular. There are large networks like dal.net, undernet, ircnet and efnet where you can use a command like - /list gay, and you get a list of the current gay channels with their actual topic. To connect to IRC, you need an IRC client line.
The browser Opera has a build-in IRC client, the messenger Trillian offers the same. IRC is free. If you aren't happy with large channels, like gay on dal.net, try a smaller one.
