Why not have a Vent server for Dakka where people can hang out, talk hobby, and answer questions etc. Ventrilo takes all of 2 minutes to download and set up. I think it'd be cool and I'd definitely be hanging out in the Painting and Fantasy channels. What sayeth the community?


Lol no.

It's a good idea, but I personally would not avail myself of it. I'd imagine it would like a crowd of people, reading aloud various recurring topics from YMDC & the OT forum, asking how you pronounce things, and - if there is no moderation - calling people a certain recently-forbidden word aplenty. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/355590/2592468.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/355590/2592468.page GMT Re:Would you be up to chatting on an official Dakka Ventrilo server?

I don't buy that they keep the text forum from going all troll like. (See: Chapterhouse threads)

Great idea to talk with fellow wargamers and go back and forth.

Had a converstaion with my daughter who tells me people are saying, "lol".
Heard someone say it for myself today. "rollseyes"

Thus people would just say the relevant orkicon at the end of a sentence. "facepalm"
Shirley it could be used constructively to denote closure of a sentence like pilots saying "roger"
Albeit there will be some gobby bleeders that will never shut up! "lol"

People could say their favourite internet memes, "Picard facepalm!"
"Haters gonna hate"
"Kentucky Fried Turnips"
etc

It would work a charm, but not for me I thank ee kindly.

I would use Skype though. Free and sounds like the person is in the room with you.

Heck, if anyone wants to call me and shoot the shyte, or insult me, my name on skype is buffotheartclown.

Just be warned, I do not like talking on phones. I am a guy. I'll probably chat for 3 minutes and stop, unless we are actually discussing something interesting. I don't chat just to chat. We can spend hours talking about movies, 40k, etc, but with my ADHD, I lose interest fast sometimes.

Most people have abandoned Ventrilo in favor of Teamspeak or Mumble since Ventrilo stoped updating the client, and the GSM codec.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/355590/2600284.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/355590/2600284.page GMT Re:Would you be up to chatting on an official Dakka Ventrilo server?
I even think it ruins immersion in video games. When people started using it in WoW on the RP servers for instance, completely destroys the image when you find out that Thrax the legendary Tauren warrior who has been smiting all before him, and has others cowering in servitude to him, has a voice like a Japanese schoolgirl ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/355590/2602481.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/355590/2602481.page GMT
