It's funny how I had recently just uninstalled Teamspeak after testing out various methods of doing a talk show for something.

ALM

I have successfully used TS on a talkshow on my station and my server was used for a talk show on Canada's LG73.com Station. It worked relitively well having 8 people doing a live show from around the world, Canada, USA, England, Germany and Australia. There was a slight delay but it worked. Dempends very much on how evenyone links to server and what route they take, other times I have done it the lag has been too much.

I was extremely shy and it took me a while to use a vopice server, and i have phone phobia, but I have had some of the best conversations with people round the world on voice... so i suppose most peopleget used to it

Even if mebbe we got a meeting together once and never again it may be interesting to hear the people behind the posters.

The people I have spoken to voice from my gaming clan have become solid friends, and when one from USA died last year it felt like someone who was sitting next to me. On the flipside, when good things happen it feels like I am part of it. I have a really great understanding of so many more people, countries and religeons as a result.

At least I'm not the only one with that sort of phobia. It's funny how posting online like this is so easy.

Empethree - Like I said, I had uninstalled it, it had nothing to do with this since you just posted, and it was a couple of weeks ago since it was do with what will end up being for a podcast I'll be participating in.

I'm willing to give it a try. It will probably be awkward at first, cause I never speak English, but I'm sure it'll be fun.

What an idea... count me in! I would really like to speak in a conference call with you all. I ´ll do it, but now I demand to have Marco in it! ;-D

Just tell when and who´s comming, I will be there... in the line I mean...

OK the server has been modified for use by LTS (all the world of warcraft specific channels gone )

The server runs 24/7 as long as my router lives, luckily that seems to have now stabilised itself again. You may join anytime you feel like it I have created a couple of discussion areas in addition to my own use channels (for my station).

I have attached the IP address details as an image for security, don't want bots to harvest it lol.



You may invite guests but please request the password is not given out without permission

1. You will need to download one of the teamspeak clients

2. Enter the details into the client and your username. First connect as anonymous. If an admin is present he/she will allow registration which is availiable from the TS menu.

You can either register an account or not, but registering gives you less restricted access.

In connection menu, click connect then on the [-]Server in the list right click and "add connection" Enter a name for the server (this can be anything you want to identify it)

Now enter the details as follows:

Registering on server means you can use your own username and password to log in to the server, also you *may* be given enhanced capabilities by admin.

Me, the main Server admin would be identified by one of my usernames, either "Fragsey", MPfreeUK or Empethree

Remember you dont even have to talk, some people use it in association with chat channels, so join the LTS chat too and you can still participete!

I'd like to give it a try sometime, too.

Hoping to get a good old voice chat sorted soon, if you have tried to use the server and had issues I am sorry, i have mad major problems with my connection in the last week or so.

I am trying different things to see if i can get my line stable again.

Looking forward to hearing a lot of you.

With christmas and holidays coming up, i bet it's hard to do any kind of planning... If i don't join the server though it's mostly due to being shy. sorry.

the voice chat consumes hardly anything, idle the server polls the net and uses a couple of kb. depending on the quality each user will use up to 12kbps only when speaking. the server uses some intelligent data transfer to distribute this to each user. I have successfuly had about 12 people on my connection with about 6/10th of my upload bandwith (800kbps) to spare. As it is unlikely everyone will speak at once it is often much less than this used.

Im sure if something good is arranged it will be a good "get to know you" excersise, maybe in the meantime we can organise a regular get together in the chat room.
