Teamspeak/Voice chat - NOT CLASSIC, can we ban it?

Imagine a word without teamspeak and only 10 lines of chat in a single chat window!

Paradise!

I'm pretty sure that when I played games involving pairs of dice there was near constant "voicechat" involved.

You mean being able to hear peoples tone? inflection in their voice? being able to communicate FASTER than typing everything out? The different sound of each person, some are surprises and some are scary as hell?Their laughter? Getting to know them in a different way than just typing out everything? That's such a horrible benefit. Yeah down with VOIP!!!

....


Just because there are morons in the world who let every single thought escape their mouths. Displaying their lack of social compass and ability to actually talk to another human being. Not able to control themselves, their volume or general idiocy...

Means VOIP is bad? Try moderating it, like a forum, band, mute kick, move to another channel... its not that hard.

I hate the over use of Team Speak and Vent.

Usually just a bunch of verbal diarrhea and it causes people to not read guild/group chat and miss important information since they are waiting for an audio cue while tabbed out or watching TV.

Well technically to be full classic you should be forced to play on hardware that existed at the time, nothing more powerful.

op is clearly a dumb shithead. do something useful with your life, and leave the norms to enjoy life.

Ive never used teamspeak or ventrillo in 15 years of playing eq, but i like the option of using it.... cos am not a naxi twat!

I agree with this poster that TS / Vent should be banned because not classic.

there wasnt any computer with the capacities with the ones we are playing, DOWNGRADE NOW, not classic....

thats absurd... but oh well all those non classic not related to server can be easily implemented client side [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] improves your classic experience.

What a great idea! I also like the idea of limiting people's PCs, but why stop at just system resources? Everyone should be required to have 1999 era peripherals (mouse, keyboard) also! There should also be ban hammers for anyone asking for non-classic features and whining about wanting instancing.

Also remove Batphone not classic! Go back to call lists of members and calling every person to tell them the raid target is up. The fastest dialer wins!

With the removal of those 3 things you could also get rid of the variance on any nonvariance mobs from classic. Then the variance mobs just have to be camped by raid forces for the entirety of the variance until spawn. The others would be timed and you could have raiders at the zone in or right outside the zone ready to race as soon as the clock hit 0hr! Maybe set up a P99 doomsday clock that due to spawn timers and politics in game could be changed...

Hmm think of the possiblities if we just rolled back technology!
