Admin functions need to be totally eliminated. It was like that on the old yahoo chat and everyone preferred it It’s totally unusable. I’ve been banned/dotted hundreds of times for no good reason at all. Some admin is drunk and just decides to ban you. You get banned for personal problems against you. You argue doctrine in a spirituality chat that some admin doesn’t like: dotted. You make a harmless joke and violate some rule about you must be kind and caring: banned. If someone just doesn’t like you: banned. And on and on The moderation tools drive tons of people off. I don’t use it because I can’t even utter sentences without someone flipping out and banning. Totally normal things like it’s a nice day out will send someone off with his finger on the ban trigger. The ban sword is at your neck every instant in most rooms Thankfully there are some no ban rooms and it’s basically only those rooms that thrive. The MOST popular rooms are all no ban rooms

I have been aware of Paltalk and been on Paltalk most before long time ago however there are some disturbing things that I do not like about this yes you can video chat yes you can talk to people. But what I don’t see is why would a creator or a streamer want to be on here that’s trying to make money yet they cannot cash out any other rewards that they are getting for leveling up. They insist that you buy a Videos gift or give a gift every day causing you to have to use money real money your fans buy things to boost you up but the only people that make money out of this is Paltalk there’s no revenue or incentive to even stay on here and this is why most of the rooms are empty so as far as a streamer try to do content and make money this is not the site or the app

Have been using this forum since yahoo closed its chat back in 2012. This program has a lot of trolling. Paltalk was one of the first social networks created prior to public use of the internet for self contractors for the US government. There is an authoritative influence on this program whom are called redhats and use red colored user names. They are supposed to be there for the sole purpose of technical support and to keep trolls from taking over and hacking its users, However these redhats are trolls themselves and hackers. This program should be used with caution and don’t easily trust other users or give out any personal information. There have been cases on the program where individuals have been egged on to commit suicide and sadly a couple people have done so on their webcams. This program is not as it is advertised.
