Vr chat rooms are a place to hang out and talk in real-time with other users in a virtual world limited only by the players’ creativity. While they can be fun and a great way to meet new people, they also present a unique platform for harassment and even bullying. This article will offer some tips for staying safe in these virtual spaces.

Getting Started

VRChat is a free-to-play platform accessible on Windows Mixed Reality (WMR), HTC Vive, and Oculus Rift. Once you’ve got your headset and controllers set up, launching the app and entering a room will let you start chatting with other players in VR. The built-in microphone on your headset will pick up your voice, and the headphones will emit 3D audio, making it easy to find others in the room. There are several settings to tweak, including locomotion and avatar customization, so you can make the experience your own.

While most players are friendly and willing to talk, you may encounter some that aren’t. Fortunately, the quick menu on your controllers (Vive, Rift, and WMR) will allow you to remove an offending player’s avatar and even mute them in-game.

Beyond Borders: Exploring the Immersive Social World of VR Chat Rooms

Whether you’re using the game for socialization or as an arena for expressing your creativity, remember that these are real people with real feelings. Predatory and toxic behavior has no place on the VR chat scene, so always be respectful to your fellow players. This will help you keep a positive attitude and have more fun in VR Chat.
