Talk Gator Review 2021
This is an open and inclusive site that is welcome to all––hetero/homo-sexuals, non-binary, and any other members of the LGBTQ+ community. It is important to create a space free from prejudice and bigotry. Talk Gator therefore promotes itself as a site that is available to everyone, and allows people to look for different things. Talk Gator is a dating site for those who are interested in Personals. Unregistered users are unable to see your profile information. This is to protect privacy and ensure that only people you wish to interact with can see your information. The website has a responsive design. This means you will be able to use it on your smartphone or tablet just as you would on your computer (page will change to fit the size of the device’s screen). Applications are not currently available for iOS or Android. Registration for the site is free, so users will not have to pay any fees to create an account.
Function or how Talk Gator works?
For such cases, there is a “user lock” feature that resolves this issue (you will no longer receive any messages from that user). However, if the user's behavior becomes inappropriate or indecent, we also recommend reporting the user to the moderators.

Are you impatient when waiting to receive messages? This is a common feeling people have when texting. Therefore, Talk Gator has a graphic feature in its chat that allows users to see when responses are being composed.
In addition to adding profile pictures, you can also create a short video in your account. Say something about yourself––who you are and what you are looking for. You can use this feature to make your profile special. As this option is relatively new in the world of online dating and not commonly used, you are sure to stand out.

Privacy and anonymity
Both public and private services exist for online dating. If you are someone who values your anonymity and wants to protect your information, you may want to choose a private platform. Public dating services often allow anyone, even unregistered users, to access the site and view user’s information.
Because profiles are not private, unregistered users will be able to see your information. Therefore, be careful about what you choose to share.
Prevention of false profiles and fraud
Registration for Talk Gator does not require a confirmation of your email address. Therefore, it is possible that you may find fake or fraudulent profiles on the site. Be careful what information you choose to share and with whom you interact.
There is no photo approval on Talk Gator. Therefore, it is possible you may find fake or fraudulent profiles on the site (celebrity impersonators, movie characters, branded content, etc.). These fake profiles may be immediately recognizable based on their photos. However, be careful about who you choose to interact with. Manual approval also helps filter out inappropriate or explicit photos that users occasionally upload to dating sites, so be mindful of this as well.
