Thread Name: BS: Paltalk Room Charges
Subject: RE: BS: Paltalk Room Charges
OK, shows how long it is since I looked around and I don't think I looked at this one when we switched to Paltalk, have anyone tried the Yahoo Messenger?

I'm not sure if it is just me but I don't think the sound quality is as good as Paltalk although it is quite useable. There are banner ads but I have seen no flashing ones and no popups.

It allows for the creation of open, locked and private rooms although it does not seem to alow the admin control Paltalk offers - not really a problem in a private room - even I would probably be in favour of a closed room without the degree of control that Paltalk had.

It may well provide a good alternative if Paltalk carry on the way they look to be going and may even be worth a look now.

Has anyone else come up with alternatives yet?
