I'll PM you what I have.

LOL Do we even use vent anymore?...LOL I guess we should. But, Since Lib, Misty, G, Johnny, and a few others started to play WoW I never get on anymore. Especially since Rage has a landline now.

What do you guys think about us setting up our OWN vent server? Skulley and I will be more than happy to set it up IF we ALL use it!!!!

It does add something to the game...especially when sailing.

Love my ventrilo server for my Guild/Clan.

The free home server version only allows 8 connections (may be plenty).
Might have to rent one if you have more peeps

Just an FYI.

Plunder hard me Wench friends.

Hey that reminds me!!!!!!! I did get a headset like a month ago, it's been sitting here on my desk ever since.

So I'd use vent too... of course, after I got over my bashfulness of talking on a mic again. LOL

LoL No excuses! I'd never used vent before, and I was still really new to the Wenches when I started...

Besides, everyone's nice, and you don't have to worry about Big D's completely illogical banned words!

Hey, you said your shy too... so you should more than understand that people being nice doesn't have a bearing on your individual "shyness". :P

If I may, vent aka ventrilo is a voice over ip communications software/system.

More simply, voice communications. It allows you to actually talk to your friends.

It runs in the background of the game, a separate configurable application.

The software can be found here: www.ventrilo.com You would want the client application.

Connection information for your guilds "vent" server will have to be PM'd to you accordingly...

I get shy talking on vent too! I just think it's kinda strange to be talking to a bunch a people on headsets. Even if they are super nice.

Aliese · #11 10-05-2008, 04:41 PM

Well, Bella can vouch for me being pretty quiet on vent (at least at first). I listened a lot...took me a bit to learn which voice belonged to which pirate.

Mercedes Swan · #12 10-05-2008, 08:22 PM

I could imagine, I'd be pretty lost myself!

Btw, Bella, I think you forgot about me.

Aliese · #13 10-08-2008, 05:51 PM

I'm glad we're back on - last night was pretty darn fun.

And yay for Mercy joining us!

so does the game sound compete with peoples voices?

i am in no way shape or form shy and have to bite my lip often during regular wench chat. Being one of the few priviledged men to be in the wenches the last thing i want to do is wear out my welcome with a bad attempt at a joke. Most of the time my humor boders on inappropraite and slighty twisted soooo...adding a mic to the equation may be a lot of fun...or not!

So, i'd be willing to try if you all are up for it.

As far as I'm concerned, the more, the merrier!

I did turn the game sounds down when I got on vent initially, just because I wasn't sure how much background noise the microphone would pick up, but once you get the settings balanced it seems to work very well.

And I wouldn't worry too much about your sense of humor - I'd say we're all a lot less edited than when we type. But really, vent makes things like sailing so much easier (not to mention, sinking hurts a lot less when you're laughing really hard).

Anyway, I'll PM you the info.
