I said leaders. Of course there's shitbags in any group(guild). But I can promise you any guild with leaders that would ex-communicate deaf people isn't going to be successful

I would argue the opposite. Any raid guild that does not require ventrilo is doomed to fail from the beginning. The amount of time you save communicating via speech compared to typing is invaluable. Voice chat also creates stronger bonds among guildmates. The proliferation of ventrilo is one of the only positive things that have happened to MMOs recently.
I've already turned down more than one applicant who told me they refused to use ventrilo. However, even I would make an exception for someone who was deaf, granted they knew what they were doing and were good at the game.
I assume you and your deaf friend went about the situation poorly.
