I spotted the problem user
literally no one cares how your voice sounds, just don't be a beta faggot and speak confidently
i forgot how to talk to people properly

I can relate to this
Not like it matters for multiplayer anyway, all the kids nowadays just repeat memes and scream toxic shit... its actually just like this place. Just pretend like you dont care
You’re locked in playing the same damn game as the other losers in the guild so what’s the issue?
Nobody gives a shit what you sound like. Just talk, or say that you don't want to. Dot even bother coming up with excuses. You lot are more annoying when you begin speaking and notice a female is present. Fucking Yea Forums-/vg/ monkeys are awful around females.

Fuck off fags and dykes
Seems strange to attempt it when they’re showing good behaviour. Makes me think you’re a micfag or a kid or both.
>Fucking Yea Forums-/vg/ monkeys are awful around females.
That's why every guild needs a chain-smoking post-menopausal matriarch.
She'll keep the bitches in check and shit talk the horn dogs until they focus on the raid.

That simple.

This isnt 2008 man
>"I don't want to talk"
That simple.
>Buying headsets
And don't say a standalone mic. Not one person I know who voices uses a stand alone mic.
Fuck, nigga. How do i stop this?
This. If they get upset and take it personally, explain it's not like that (unless it is, i don't know you), and if they still feel the same, then they're pussies seriously not worth the time. after a few times they'll just probably stop asking you.
Social ability and self-confidence that may come naturally to you is a serious ordeal for some of us.

Yup. Amazing how ignorant people are of other's social abilities or really the lack of, considering how popular these problems are.

i grew up online after phones were phased out and before people started speaking to each other with their voices over the internet
inhaling enough to make audible sounds is very taxing on me and speaking is basically too hard to do for any length of time.
He sounds based can i be hsi friend too?
You dont know how many squeaky voiced basedboys Ive heard speak in the years Ive been gaming and nobody gave a fuck. Dont be a huge fucking faggot and coordinate with your team a lready.

I hate this shit so much. Now I use a voice modulator and just tell people that I'm paranoid about privacy. They laugh at me and call me a tinfoil faggot but at least it's been going strong for over a year.
I assume voice mod people are Chinese, but this is another explanation.
oh no poor sissy an*mefaggot got bullied
I don't have a squeaker/based boy voice, but I'm terrible at small talk and can't help but give off the vibe that I'm not interested in whatever shit the other person is talking about.
>everyone's got a different bit rate and different audio quality
>its so stressful to listen to them all
I'm so, so, sorry in advance for what is about to happen. Trolls are going to come into the thread and they will be saying some very hurtful things about you. They will call you some very hurtful names. But none of those things are true. How could they possibly know? How could they possibly know how beautiful you really are? How sweet and compassionate you are? I'm so sorry about them, please do not let them hurt you.
>mfw thinking about you hurting
I just want to see you shine and flourish. You are so precious to me. I want to write poetry and sing songs about my love and adoration for you and all of your perfections. My name is Brian, by the way. I know that you're tired of all the assholes and jerks. I know how you feel baby doll. I know. I am different. I am the nicest guy you will ever meet, and if anything I'll be the one in the kitchen. I live in London. Please be in London.

it was enough to convince me that the problem with guilds and women are the ratio and beta orbiters. Looking forward to playing with them more once I re sub
No, everyone loves brit accents.

im 35
i started playing mmos in 1998
I'm 34, why weren't you using voice clients back then?
Mics are for faggots?
I never even heard of voip until the early 2000s, and i was also playing starsiege in the top clan of the time and we didnt use that sort of thing, i also never heard of people using it during that era.
The very first time anyone asked me to download a voice communication program was in WoW
absolutely based and metalpilled
most mmo twitch streamers listen to shitty techno bleep bloops so i assumed no one listened to good music

People like this because it gives the impression that you learned English through hard work and education rather than by watching American movies and playing video games.
that's why i always say that women aren't the problem, beta men are.
>playing some casual in cs
>the server is dead silent
>no one is even talking in text

now i just kick girls whenever they turn on their mics. bitches need to learn not to speak.
>Is told the game relies on quick communication so text won't work

Every time.
>women aren't the problem, beta men are
>respond to this by kicking women
Now THIS is epic.
I have a speech impairment that I used to go to speech therapy for, it makes pronouncing certain sounds difficult. Plus I also spaghetti and stutter hard when talking.
beta men are the problem, but women are the catalyst. i've noticed more people have caught on and now i dont even have to start up the vote.
Why not ban the beta men?
are you me
How can i find a voice modulator? How use

Really
Not them but I assume it’s only like a few girls and mostly beta so it’s easy to kick the few than everyone I guess but also aren’t voice changer software I think so it wouldn’t be hard for a guy to sound like a girl if he wanted I doubt most of them are actually girls but instead trannies

Am I the only one who can type fast enough to keep up with what they could say on mic while playing an MMO?
>have desk mic
>too annoying to use so never talk
thinking about getting a modmic to slap on my sennheisers, are they any good? I just want to be able to talk without sitting in a fucked up position to have a big ass mic infront of my face
just post some shitty memes once in awhile
I actually find it faster and more convenient to communicate via text, with audio there's the chance their mic cuts out or they just mumble and you don't understand the fuck they're saying etc.
