"Bots' can pose dangers to community members because of potential risks
such as member identity theft, cyber stalking, or scams. Paltalk ups the
ante over other social networks, allowing users to see, hear, chat, and
share files with anyone, anywhere in the world - in a bot-free environment.
Virtually no ants, crawlers, spiders, or worms can hack and spam their way
into chat rooms because Paltalk has continued to invest in technologies that
safeguard its Web community from the dangers of intrusive bots. These
technologies include new ways to prevent hackers from creating robots within
the Paltalk client environment.
Paltalk also realizes the best people to protect and serve the community
- IS the community. In addition to its full-time staff, a global online team
of volunteers is available to assist new and long-time members with their
technical questions around the clock, seven days a week, and in over 20
languages.
With complete control to build and shape their own online communities,
Paltalk members communicate in a way that goes well beyond a one-way
broadcast. Users enjoy interactive dialogues with multiple users in chat
rooms that hold up to 1000 people. They can break away from the chat to
enjoy more intimate conversations with up to 10 friends using Super IM. Or
they can choose to participate in thousands of other user-generated chat
rooms on topics of interest -world politics, sports, entertainment, and so
much more. You name it, Paltalk's got it.
"We know the most important people are our members," says Jason Katz, CEO
and founder at Paltalk," and that is why our programmers are constantly
working to refine and improve Paltalk's online experience."
With real people, real chat, real video, in real time, Paltalk is the
real thing. No ifs, ands, or bots.
