The Paltalk Program
Paltalk is a free worldwide, unlimited use, live talk program. With the Paltalk software installed on your PC you can talk to anyone else with Paltalk installed on his or her PC -- anywhere, anytime for as long as you like.
Paltalk has open group rooms where any Paltalk user can join in voice chat discussions with other people who are in the room. This is the way we will gather together as a group to talk.

Setup a New Room
To begin the shared talk process someone has to be the first one to open a room at the beginning of one of our scheduled meeting times. This person becomes the 'Admin' for the room. This room only remains open as long as the Admin is on line. (It is possible for someone else to be designated the Admin if the opening Admin needs to leave during the hour.)
Theoretically the room could be open 24/7 if someone was always on line in Paltalk as the current Admin. This is not likely to be the case. Consequently when someone does open a new room it is important to call it something that others can recognize such 'The HSP Room.' We will always open our rooms in the Miscellaneous category so that others can find the room and join in the conversation.
To create a new room, log on, click on Groups, click on Admin in the top bar, click on Setup your own group and then follow the instructions. You only need to do this once, your room name is then saved for you. Once you have a room setup each time that you log on, click on Admin and click on Open (instead of Setup.) We will end up with a number of rooms all called something similar, that may or may not be open at the same time. If a room is not opened by an Admin for that room it will not appear in the Miscellaneous category list for others to join. (It is important to not choose the password option when setting up new rooms as others would have no way to know the password.)

Join a Room
To join a room click the Groups button after you are logged in, scroll down to the Miscellaneous Category, double click on that category, scroll down to find an open room with HSP or Sensitive as part of the room title and double click on that room.
If it is one of our scheduled times to be meeting, you may find a room open. The others already in the room will have their Nicknames listed in the window on the right side. If there are no open rooms you can wait for someone to open their room, setup a room of your own or come back at another scheduled time.
