Slashdot Discussions Now Include Roulette Video Chat

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the let's-keep-this-rated-pg dept.

It's been a long time coming, but we're pleased to announce the latest updates to our discussion software. We've been paying a lot of attention to what other websites have been doing in the space, and as we are only too happy to steal good ideas, from now on all Slashdot stories will now be accompanied by a Roulette-style webcam video chat. In testing, we've discovered that Slashdot users are amazingly likely to engage in informative, troll-free discussion when presented with the video image of one of their peers. This new addition to Slashdot nicely rounds out and improves the discussion experience for all users.

  2. I normally allow flash on slashdot. by BitZtream · · Score: 0, Troll

    I figure its the very least I can do, let you get the ad impressions and maybe I'll see something I like. I leave the ads displayed even with the option to hide them.

    Until today.

    Now I don't allow flash on slashdot because of this retarded bullcrap.

    Way to go there dumbasses, perhaps next time you should think about how utterly fucking annoying you are being before you end up costing yourself income.

    Whats better is that this thread is filled with 99.9% bitching and wanting it turned off and you still haven't made it optional or FUCKING TURNED IT OFF.

    Are you trying to piss people off, or just that stupid?
