How to Use Video Chat on AdventistDating.com
Meet Face-to-Face With Video Chat
Messages are a great way to start getting to know someone, but there comes a time when it is nice to actually see each other and talk. AdventistDating.com has a built-in Video Instant Messenger that lets you make private video calls directly through the site.
Video chat makes getting to know someone more personal and fun, and it is also an important safety tool. You can see who you are communicating with, make sure the person appears to match their profile photos, and talk face-to-face before giving out your phone number or moving your conversation away from AdventistDating.com.
Why Use Video Chat?
A real conversation can tell you things that messages cannot. You can hear each other's voices, see each other's expressions, laugh together and get a better sense of whether there is a connection.
It is also a convenient way to meet face-to-face without exchanging phone numbers or setting up another messaging or video app. You can stay on AdventistDating.com while you are still getting comfortable with someone new.
How to Make a Video Call
Open the profile of the person you would like to talk with.
Look on the left side of the member's profile for the Video Instant Messenger box.
When you are ready, click the green Video call button. The call begins immediately, so click it when you are ready to talk.
During the call, you can turn your microphone or camera on and off. When you are finished, click the red phone button to end the call.
See Who You Are Really Talking To
Unfortunately, people online are not always who they claim to be. Photos can be stolen or misused, which is one reason we encourage members to video chat while getting to know someone.
A live video conversation lets you see the person you have been communicating with and can help you determine whether they appear to match the photos on their profile. If someone repeatedly makes excuses for why they cannot video chat, take your time and be cautious about sharing personal information.
Video Chat Is an Important Step — But Keep Getting to Know Them
Seeing someone on video can help confirm that you are communicating with the person pictured in their profile, but it does not prove that everything they tell you is true. Continue getting to know someone gradually and pay attention if their stories or behaviour do not seem consistent.
Never send or lend money to someone you meet online because of an emergency, travel problem, medical expense, investment opportunity or promise to repay you later. Video chatting with someone does not make a request for money safe.
