Alternative for Stickam

Paltalk looks great. I went ahead and signed up and created an AGS chat group. Anyone wanna test it with me, feel free:

Oh wait, they have an express version of the client that you can do in browser. This looks promising, guys.

Nah, Paltalk is free to join, but askpeople cash in order to see or use a cam.

And it's quite expensive.

BTW, according to the extremely high number of rooms related to 18+ sex chats, Paltalk is more a cover for that business than anything else.

EDIT: oups LGM didn't see you posting, AM I wrong?

EDIT2: can't find your room LGM, olny one from Progz 28-12-08

www.tokbox.com is looking to be a suitable candidate

LGM · Tue 06/01/2009 23:17:21

ToxBox doesn't let you open a room, people have to be invited to a conference.

IndieBoy · Tue 06/01/2009 23:25:03

Yeah, but once we have quite a few people as a friend we just have to wait until two AGSers are online at the same time, start a chat, then copy the link like we normally do.

Tokbox allows you to post a chat url that anyone can join.

I'm sorry, it could be that I am really tired, but Tokbox really confuses me. I don't like how it takes over my msn when I log in, even though I thought I removed that option from my profile, either.

LGM · Wed 07/01/2009 06:10:34

Well anyone want to do a TokBox trial?

LUniqueDan · Wed 07/01/2009 07:44:12

We tried yesterday. It was ok. I mean no lag /crashes.

It's surely strange that there's no 'rooms' per se and auto-resize windows, but it did the job.
I dunno.

Anyone else wanna share his Non-Sticky experience?

IndieBoy · Wed 07/01/2009 16:23:18

Shows a lot of promise but there are some little things that could improve it. However it doesn't kick and you can talk to anyone registered or not. Of course there are a few little laggy bits, but they don't last more than a couple of seconds and are only experienced by you and your connection. Still got to get used to it, but it is far better than stickam.

Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens · Wed 07/01/2009 16:47:59

I like it and will use it instead of stickam because I am sick of randumbs and all the disconnects. That is all.

Sylvr · Wed 07/01/2009 17:22:26

Okay, I believe I've set it to stop taking over my msn.... I might want to give this a try again now.

you can stop it doing that by removing it from your IM accounts, I had to do that earlier because it decided to sign me into msn while i was already signed in therefore signing me out.

I like having randoms. Most of them are good for a laugh, and sometimes there are quite interesting and intelligent people. The annoying ones can just be kicked. The crashing is the only problem I have with stickam. Tokbox seems a bit more complicated to use, but its probably just coz i'm new to it. Also a lot of features are missing in tokbox but that may still change aswell. I'm gonna continue to use stickam along with tokbox for some time.

Ghost · Wed 07/01/2009 17:30:14

I signed up to TokBox, let's give it a go

Sylvr · Wed 07/01/2009 17:51:56

it seems to be working well enough

....sooo is this gonna be a permanent link or what's the deal?

Shane 'ProgZmax' Stevens · Wed 07/01/2009 20:10:14

The conference links for tokbox are interesting. They still seem to work if even one person from the original conference is online, so technically the 'room' can last for quite awhile.

Stupot · Wed 07/01/2009 20:37:11

TokBox Lauren is HOT!
I'm in

LGM · Wed 07/01/2009 20:37:38

So, where is this room?
