Honestly I think it all comes down to how much he liked his old guild if it was something he really cared about then making his situation known privately to the leadership would have been the way to go. If he wasn't really happy then looking for a new guild is fine. Making a huge deal about his disability in this post is bullshit if he doesn't even want to deal with himself or explain to his guild what's up. Just my 2cp

Running all of your raiding through Chat is also extremely difficult without Chat Channels beyond the default. You'd be amazed how fast 30 people can plow through /gu unless you really want to spew all of your macros into /auc and /ooc, etc.

Once chat channels were implemented, it became a lot easier to manage guild raiding (even on 72-man content) via text.

Sure any guild can do "fine" without voice chat, and some do such as Darkwind. But P99 is more cutthroat than any live server was. Voice chat unarguably gives a huge advantage.

The number of assumptions made in this thread is staggering.

Did it ever occur to you guys that someone who lives every day of their life with a disability might not want to use that as a crutch all the time, and might, in fact, be looking to escape from it? Perhaps this person had no interest in explaining his situation simply because in this game, it shouldn't matter?

Honestly, stop with the judging already.

Dozekar has vent, but its not required, and raids are lead the old fashion way. If some others ( see above ) believe they have an advantage by requiring, more power to you.

Dozekar is listed in guild section of the forums, with websight and who to contact if ur interested.

I'm just putting myself in the shoes of whoever removed the deaf dude. If someone sent me a tell saying "I refuse to join vent during raids" I'd say sorry buddy, it's a requirement to be in my guild. However, if the guy said "I'd really love to be able to participate in vent, but I'm deaf" I'd definitely be arranging provisions for the guy so that he could be effective on raids while not participating in voice chat. It's called communicating information, not using a disability as a crutch.

I'd ask "why not dude?", because I'm not a dickhead. Why does the other person immediately have to explain themselves? If you had to take off work to get surgery to remove your testicles would you tell your boss that immediately when you say "I have to take off work because I'm getting my balls cut off."

Of course you'd provide a BS reason like "personal reasons" but the point is this is supposed to be a game and people here treat it like it's a god damn job. Congratz to the deaf dude for saying "I don't give a fuck."
