And so this was the birth of the Paltalk Guides feature. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\">Guides are experienced Paltalk members that volunteer to help new users learn about the Paltalk community. If you have a <span style=\"color:#0099ff\">blue<\/span>, <span style=\"color:#88bb00\">green<\/span> or <span style=\"color:#9977ff\">purple<\/span> nickname that&#8217;s at least 3 months old, you have a profile, and you are a member in good standing, you are eligible to become a Guide. Here&#8217;s where you opt-in within Paltalk (see the <span style=\"color:#d42c2c\">red<\/span> box):<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\">As a reward for being a Paltalk Guide, you&#8217;ll get a badge on your profile page. We&#8217;ll also showcase the top-rated guides on Paltalk from time to time. Good stuff&#8230; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\">Here are some other great new features: <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\">Now it&#8217;s easier and more convenient to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paltalk.com\/superim?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_campaign=v98\"><span style=\"color:blue\">SuperIM<\/span><\/a> with your friends. SuperIM allows you to voice and video chat with up to 10 people simultaneously &#8211; only the initiator of the SuperIM\u201e\u00a2 session needs to download Paltalk&#8217;s free software. Everyone invited just clicks a link from their email to join the instant messaging conversation within their internet browser.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\">You will also be able to send IMs to your MSN Messenger contacts from within Paltalk, just like you have been able to with your Yahoo!, AOL and ICQ friends.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\">Finally, you can now rate a room while you&#8217;re in the room itself.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:10.0pt\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.paltalk.com\/download\/0.x\/pal_install_beta_r84011.exe\"><span style=\"color:blue\">Download Paltalk v9.8 Beta &#8211; have fun!<\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are pleased to announce the release of Paltalk v9.8 Beta this week&#8230;with this version, we have included some great new features we think you&#8217;ll really like!
