Raiding and Teamspeak.

Many see voice communication as breaking a notable social barrier and for those with social anxiety it can be very taxing on them.

Social anxiety sure, that's easy to see, but I see this from people who don't even have such things. That's the kind of people I don't understand. Especially when you're playing a game that is literally made to be social..

I'm not sure if you know anyone with phone anxiety.
I...well I do mind talking to people face to face, but I'd rather do that, or text/type chat, or ANYTHING ELSE other than talk to someone on the phone.
Voice chat to me is literally the same thing. It's extremely stressful. Is it a personal problem? Sure it is, but that doesn't make it any easier to do.

i have the same thing :O

i almost never use a telephone (traveling for example to the dentist just to make an appointment for the next day instead of using the phone). voice chat with a whole group of people is even worse
