I think if vent was full of Morgan Freemans, Sean Connerys and James Earl Joneses I might enjoy it a whole lot more. Alas, it's usually full of whiney nerds on MMORPGs.

implying that your voice is some kind of gift from God?

Also most people playing video games are huge nerds and I normally I don't have a single common interest with them beside gaming. That's why I often dislike using vent/skype with random people on the internet. Then it's easier to just type since it will most likely only be in game talk then. Compared to voice communication where most of the talk won't be gaming related.

it honestly sounds like the people who are dissing ventrilo here are the very same whiny judgmental crybabies that are being singled out as the reason why ventrilo destroyed their gaming experience.
