Frequently Asked Questions



What is Trivia Chatters?

Trivia Chatters is a website that allows people to answer (very) random Trivia Questions in a chat room environment

Is it free to play ?

It's totally free to play. However if you're a high scorer, we may ask you to take a break (so that other players get a chance to answer), or tip 10 tokens to continue.

I found a bug, what should I do ?

Some bugs exist that may never be fixed due to the way the chat designer has decided to implement their spam filters on chat (repeated lines of text or unacceptable words / phrases). This will sometimes mean the QuizBot doesn't display a question or an answer. Sorry about that!

I found an incorrect question / answer

Use the contact form so that you can let us know about incorrect data. Since we have over 120,000 questions, there are bound to be some incorrect facts. But please bear in mind that in some instances, you may have encountered the "filtering" bug mentioned above.

I answered a question correctly, but the bot said "I guess nobody knows the answer"..wtf !?

Again, take note of the "bugs" above. Also there's a teeny tiny lag on the bot. So you have to answer around 1/2 second before the bot is getting ready to say nobody knows the answer, other wise you won't get the point.

Are there any special commands for the triviabot ?

??? or bot??? or triviabot??? : Lets you query the question / answer for being incorrect**

There's also a bunch of random triggers for certain words or phrases and the bot will talk back to you. See if you can find them

My Camera doesn't work on Chat, what do I do ?

If your camera isn't working on chat, try these steps:

  • Check browser permissions: Make sure your browser has permission to access your camera. Look for a camera icon in your browser’s address bar and ensure access is allowed.
  • Close other apps: Only one program can use your camera at a time. Close any other apps (like Zoom, Teams, or Skype) that might be using your webcam.
  • Restart your browser: Sometimes simply closing and reopening your browser will fix the issue.
  • Try a different browser: If you’re having trouble in one browser (e.g., Chrome), try another (e.g., Firefox or Edge).
  • Update your browser: Make sure you’re using the latest version of your browser, as WebRTC features are updated frequently.
  • Check your camera settings: On your computer or device, ensure your camera is enabled and working in your system settings.
  • Test your camera: Use a site like webcammictest.com to confirm your camera is working in your browser.
  • Still not working? Try restarting your computer, or unplugging and reconnecting your webcam if you’re using an external device.
