So, you’ve been banned from Chatroulette? You’ve changed your ip, tried proxies and it still wont let you back on? Dont worry, you’re not alone. Since chatroulette launched their new interface, introducing the report button, a lot of people have been getting similiar problems.

The problem seem to lie in how they ban you. Chatroulette does not simply rely on an ip ban – they save a flash variable on your hard drive which serves as an identifier each time you access the site. Even though they remove the ip ban, the variable will still be there redirecting you to the banned page. However, there is a simple solution.

There is a tool available at adobe.com which enables you to delete flash information stored by specific web pages on your hard drive. Just select (www.)chatroulette.com and chose “Delete website”. Problem solved!

To speed up the process of removing the actual ip-ban, chatroulette has provided an opportunity to redeem oneself. If you visit http://cs.chatroulette.com you can help identify people breaking the terms of service and thereby unban yourself.

If none of the above works, you will have to use a VPN service to change your ip adress. Check out my other post How to bypass a chatroulette ban for information about it.
