target rings are to non classic as voip is to non classic

We can't enforce 'not using voip'. It's not possible with all of the different ways to communicate. We can, and did remove target rings, because it is within our control.
However, if removing voip was an option, I'd consider it. If somehow it was possible to know what % of messages were sent via /tell versus how many were spoken on voip, on eqlive, from 1999-2001, I'd imagine the result would be 99.9% text tells.
I also consider it a personal preference. I was a pvp guild leader in wow (lolz yea) and the first rule of my guild was no voip for raids. If people couldn't read, they couldn't be in my guild.
So, do I think that voip progressed mmorpgs? I think it progressed the MMO, at the expense of the RPG.
