About Tencent:
-
Hello there! Thanks for giving us this chance to tell you a little more about Tencent. We really appreciate your interest in QQ Games!
Tencent is one of the world's leading Internet companies, based in China, and our QQ Games team is based here in sunny Redwood City, California. In China, Tencent is best known for building a massive Internet community around our instant messaging platform, "QQ." With over 270 million active accounts as of the end of June 2007, QQ may be one of the world's largest Internet platforms. Our QQ Games service in China is also really massive, with over 3 million "peak simultaneous users"-that is, people playing our QQ Games service together at the same time!
We're starting from scratch here in the U.S., and were excited to introduce QQ Games, a new breed of "massive multiplayer casual gaming!"
We find that Internet users around the world really like to jump into an online game room of players, and play head to head with old and new friends. It's exciting if you win, and exciting if you loose too, because you always know that you are playing directly against someone else.
Tencent seeks to provide cutting-edge Internet services to users around the world, and we believe that the Internet is about entertainment, leisure, community. We want QQ Games to be a place where users can go and safely build relationships through gaming. We strive to create an online experience so deep, that you feel like you are in the same room with someone else, having a great time, even though you may be thousands of miles apart.
We're launching the QQ Games service via a special relationship with AOL's Instant Messenger. AIM is the #1 IM service in the U.S. We believe that AIM and QQ Games will be a great combination for the U.S. market. For AIM users, we want to ensure that we are the best massive multiplayer casual gaming experience in the market.
We plan to introduce more of our games and other services to the U.S. over time. Stay tuned!
We appreciate your support and feedback and really hope that you enjoy QQ Games. Let us know what you think and what we can do to improve. Drop us a line below or in our Forums.
Let the QQ Games begin!
The QQ Games Team

Net Safety Tips:
- Be Yourself:
Don’t let others pressure you into being what they want you to be. Know exactly what you want, and don’t let others push you past that.
- Treat Others As You Want Them To Treat You:
Maybe they will!
- Nothing You Share Is Private.
If you share any information about yourself with anyone online, it may be used against you, and there is no way to stop its spread. Remember that even though you consider someone your friend now, friendships may not last forever.
- Pay Attention To Motives:
Sometimes, when people are being nice to you it is because they want something from you. And remember, anything they get can be used against you later.
- People Are Not Necessarily Who They Say They Are:
When someone tells you something about themselves, take it with a grain of salt, especially if they ask for something afterwards.
- Avoid In-Person Meetings:
People online can’t physically harm you unless you meet them in real life. If you absolutely must meet someone, don’t go alone, meet in a public place, never the other person’s home, and tell someone you know in real life where you are going and who you are meeting with.
- Keep Your Guard Up:
Now that you have read all the above, be safe! We can help, but ultimately the responsibility is in your hands!
