Quick Poll on Microphones

I don't think it's crucial/necessary for raids...I mean yeah it makes things easier, but I've done speed runs, garuda, ifrit etc without v-chat at all

none of which are particularly difficult, especially when you have a copy/paste strategy to follow.

Then I guess my point stands that v-chat is not necessary, amirite?

P.S. Skye you crack me up so bad XD

Don't use mic, mainly because I play at all sort of crazy hours during the day and night, so last thing I need is be yelling in a game chat and wake up the family at 3am.

It is alot closer than I expected actually. I thought most people did use chat.

You know with the rate at which they keep adding these Voicechat threads. They might as well just remove the chat function. Nobody is going to use it. :P

Yep and MMO where the only way you can communicate in-game is by /emotes and voicechat! lol

I like voicechat and all, but the reason why they never incorporate it into games is that Voicechat is only usuable with about 5-6 ppl. Sure thats perfect for a party, but not for a large LS. To much chatter and nobody can hear anybody. A Chat log is much easier to digest if you leave your desk for a couple as well.

Scroll up and catch up on what you missed. That's not possible in voicechat! Which further makes MMO's feel like you can never leave your seat!

And quite honestly I sometimes feel like ppl post and push voice chat because they are not comofortable with typing! I learned to type quickly because of chatting in MMO's and IM's. Now kids these days learned to type on their T9's and smartphones! lol So when you put a keyboard in front of them they have problems and would rather use voice chat than learn to type! :P Typing is a life skill that is useful in your work. Learn to use it!

It's the internet...he has to be right or his self worth goes down the proverbial toilet

I didn't click the "like" button on either of two first posts because there are no PROs/CONs...

My PRO/CON about voice chat.

PRO:
Make things go easier...

CON:
They can kick me out all they want if not using a mic.
They can put me on their blacklist if they believe that I am an anti-social person (I won't tell anyone who I am.)
I am a leader and my party members want to use a mic.
They won't leave me alone even if they are trying to voice in my ears.
Voice Mail <<<< STFU!!! >.<

If they bring voice chat in the game, I guess I better off soloing all the way up or quit the game. I don't care if I am Legacy... *sigh*

[Vilhem]

This isn't a poll whether they should bring v-chat function into game >.< It's just curiosity on the part of the OP.

like talking to brick walls with FF character portraits pasted in the middle

continue ignoring the point if it makes you feel more comfortable and confident with your own position. pretty typical for this forum.

Just out of curiousity... is it possible for anyone to have an opinion opposing yours and they not be wrong?

if they present their argument with corresponding evidence and/or proper logic, absolutely. and as long as people can maintain a fair amount of objectivity in discussion and exchange of ideas without letting their personal biases show, there's never a problem.

note that i never stated any preferences either way- i merely made qualitative statements with denotative language in reference to specific topics/situations. i care only about the principle of the matter, and in adhering to that principle i merely state what is and what isn't, and in in the event it's not so simple- in which situations it is and in which situations it isn't.

when a person takes up a position and fails to provide context outside of subjective personal experience (fallacious), without at least qualifying that their position comes from subjective personal experience and therefore should be taken as such- then no. it's impossible for them to oppose me without me demonstrating in what context they are categorically wrong.

notice how i never said they were wrong in any/every context. i provide the context for when they are, though, and if they can't acknowledge or accept that then i will be unrelenting in appealing back to the princple.
