    Oh, going from this direction there are actually many avenues! Open server groups are very popular, definitely on Mumble. I've been in a couple groups that used them and there weren't any issues with folks barging in during raids/groups. It was pretty chill, actually. Thanks for bringing it up!

    You realize there are public servers for vent, right?

    There's no reason to not use voice chat, communication is never a bad thing. Don't get why people are anti-social in an MMO.

    Because not EVERYONE actually NEEDS to be told what to do every 10 seconds in a fight to do their job properly. Players such as myself under perform with voice chatting due to it being a distraction greatly inhibiting our ability to focus on the fight. I need to be looking at myself, my skills, bosses, boss mechanics, other players, player debuffs, listening to sound queues. Otherwise I fall into a slump where I'm unable to pay attention at all.

    I understand there are many players who might perform better with the constant communication feedback of VOIP and I respect your play styles, I really do. I'm just getting frustrated that MY playstyles are frequently not respected. Can't join this group or that group cuz VOIP REQUIRED and I know I'll just play like absolute garbage if I was in a VOIP. I also wonder how many other people have difficulties playing with people talking to them in real life / VOIP and are not even aware they have this issue... My husband actually found out he plays better when he mutes people in the voice chat. Surely there can be some middle ground where the people who need voice queues can be there and the people who can pay attention on their own can be outside the VOIP.

    Yep. There are also free servers available for Mumble. I haven't looked into TS/Vent.
