A Peep Into The Bingo Chat Room
05.12.09
Hi! I am a Bingo chat monitor (CM). My job requires me to monitor chat sessions regularly on our Bingo games website. Big deal, you may say. Well, it sounds easy but it is not. Spend a day as a chat monitor (CM) in a Bingo chat room, and you will know what I mean. Sure it feels good to be a monitor, but with power comes responsibility. Let me share with you my experiences as a Bingo CM.
You know how fast online Bingo games are. Usually these games last from two to five minutes. During this short interval, a CM has to engage players in friendly banter, host a variety of chat games, monitor chat room decorum, as well as answer all queries. Sometimes, players may have complex problems that need to be addressed meaningfully.
A few days ago I was monitoring a chat session. Players were interacting with me. I noticed one new player was facing some difficulties but I had to deal with the queries on as “first come first serve” basis.
Then the worst thing happened. She expressed herself with a sobbing face. Of course we are human beings and not some battery-operated robots. I asked her what went wrong and she said she was unable to buy Bingo cards. Since she was new to online Bingo, she had no clue that if a game was in progress, one cannot buy new cards. I invited her to play chat games while the current Bingo session was on. She happily accepted it with a smiley emoticon!
In online Bingo, the numbers are daubed automatically on your cards, and players tend to feel bored. To keep people busy and enthusiastic becomes a challenge. To break the monotony, CMs usually offer chat games.
Sometimes these chat games are based on generic questions on local news, movies, music, celebrities, sports, adventure etc. And sometimes it’s pure Bingo stuff, things like “get these numbers first and win prizes.” I must say that players take active part in chat games, making the chat room come alive. But sometimes players don’t like the chat games offered and start swearing. At times they get abusive too, especially if they are losing or feel cheated. It is then that CMs have to either turn on the charm and pacify them, or ask them to leave politely and sternly. I had to do this when one player constantly abused another who was winning.
The really difficult players are those who have problems with their Bingo account. Very often they bring their queries to the chat room instead of going to Live Help. I sometimes pass on the customer support telephone number and a name. This helps to soothe irate players who want instant solutions.
It’s fun to be a CM and host Bingo games but it’s also very challenging. It demands an enthusiastic, jolly, and supportive personality. Every time I log into a chat room, I recall these lines from a great song, “…you can be a mother while you are a man…” And hosting Bingo games becomes a lot of fun all of a sudden.

We got into a fight in my blackjack social. The problemwas was how to rotate the dealer role. When should someone step down and be the dealer. Is there some ethics or rules of how to do it?
Your post piqued my interest. Please give us a more indepth post if you get a chance.
Like always, your post is insightful as well as wonderfully written
Is it free to get a blog like this one? Where do I sign up?
How long has this blog been around? I have been searching for this kind of information for the past week and a half.
Good! Thanks for this! I found this site from Yahoo, I’ve already bookmarked this site. Thanks again!
The author of blog.123bingoonline.com has written an excellent article. You have made your point and there is not much to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not argue with: If God hadn’t meant us to eat, he’d have made us photosynthesise. Thanks for the info.
Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
Excellent read! I enjoy your site very much.
Great article. There’s a lot of good info here, though I did want to let you know something - I am running Mac OS X with the circulating beta of Firefox, and the layout of your blog is kind of flaky for me. I can read the articles, but the navigation doesn’t work so well.
Shame on you for creating another terrific post! Awesome stuff, keep up the good work. I see a lot of potential!
Hey I just wanted to let you know, I actually like the composition on your site. But I am using Chromium on a machine running version 9.04 of Xubuntu and the design aren’t quite satisfactory. Not a serious deal, I can still fundamentally read the articles and look for for info, but just wanted to inform you about that. The navigation bar is kind of tough to use with the config I’m running. Keep up the superb work!
Good Information.
Hi, I love your work.
Hey there,
I really love your blog. Bing sent me to this blog. I have found very much good imformation here.
Will for sure visit it again.

I wish i could tell more than thanks to you for your article, it is really helpful to me for solving my problem now.
I was plesantly {surprised|shocked} to see this….
Look what I found in the Yahoo search engine. I just had to share this….
There is obviously a lot to know about this. I think you made some good points in your article.

Thank you for posting this! It’s finding blogs like this with great information that make me want to keep working harder on mine.
Hi - very good site you have created. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to publish a remark to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically delightful. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor for a merchandising firm. I have always enjoyed functioning with information processing systems and am trying to learn computer code in my spare time (which there is never enough of lol).
Great article. There’s a lot of good information here, though I did want to let you know something - I am running Ubuntu with the up-to-date beta of Firefox, and the look and feel of your blog is kind of funky for me. I can understand the articles, but the navigation doesn’t function so good.
Very good well informed ty you for the information. From the guys at Bloggles

i was starting to suppose i may possibly end up being the sole lady which cared about this, at the least at this point i discover i’m not mad
i am going to make it a point to find out more about some several other articles soon after i get a tad of caffeine in me, it is really complicated to read without my coffee, I was until the wee hours of the morning last night enjoying zynga poker and after getting my fill with a few brewskies i wound up giving up all my zynga poker chips adios for now 
Wow! Thank you! I always wanted to write in my site something like that. Can I take part of your post to my blog?
Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
I think I’ve read something simillar a few days ago. I don’t remember where, might have been on digg or wikipedia, not sure.
I tried to get the feed for the RSS to this website and I am not sure why, but it is not showing up in Google Chrome. Any ideas?
Dude.. I am not much into reading, but somehow I got to read lots of articles on your blog. Its amazing how interesting it is for me to visit you very often.
Great stuff as usual…
I find that your argued subject is rather understanding as it comes with lots of interesting info. By the way, was wondering whether you would like to exchange web links with my web portal, as I am looking forward to build links to further spear point and get better web exposure for my website. I do not mind you positioning my web links at the main page, just getting this links on this particular page is great and enough. On the other hand, would you be kind enough be kind enough to contact me at my web space if you are keen in swapping links, I would really value that. Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you very soon!
I just book marked your blog on Digg and StumbleUpon.I enjoy reading your commentaries.
I find myself coming to your blog more and more often to the point where my visits are almost daily now!
great information you write it very clean. I’m very lucky to get
this details from you.
