I could tell you where every guild is and what mob they're attempting to go for within 10s of looking at lockouts and mob windows. It's no secret who's going for what.

The main issue for "high end" guilds not streaming is that I (or anyone else I know in TMO/Rampage) don't know how to be able to hear my elfmates in TS without it broadcasting to every turdburglar in my stream.

if your using a USB headset by default it doesn't stream TS only what comes out of your line in speakers or atleast with xsplit anyway

Its quite easy to isolate audio, it all depends on your audio setup.

Open your audio control panel ( systray icon for almost everyone )

How many devices do you have listed? Avail? Disabled or Hidden (( this is where Virtual Audio Cable - VAC comes into play if needed ))
Example:

I have my onboard audio and a separate audio card installed. That's It. I don't even use VAC. But some people may need it.

Headphones are connected to one device, and speakers are on another. ( the hardware connected to the computer is irrelevant - as this is what YOU are hearing, not what is being captured by the streaming software )

Now check your OBS/Xsplit streaming software, what is the primary source for audio output? Is it default? are you selecting a specific device? What is the audio setup within your VOIP software? what do you have configured?

If everything is set to Default, and your streaming software is using Default... guess what EVERYTHING gets broadcast.

If you have your Teamspeak set for audio output to anything OTHER than what OBS/Xsplit is capturing guess what... it WON'T get broadcast.

With some trial and error and testing, it shouldn't be very difficult for even the most novice of users to figure out.

I use a laptop connected to an external monitor and I'm too lazy to plug in a mic 97% of the time so I make everyone listen to me through my awful laptop mic. Still a way to isolate it?

Isolate what?
Not sure what you are trying to accomplish. You want people to experience a better quality mic sound? Or are you trying to make it so you can be in a VOIP program but don't want the viewers to listen? The VOIP software will have audio input, this what what you talk thru via microphone, and audio OUTPUT ie: where you want the sound to come out/listen to? If your control panel is configured properly. You can have the audio output NOT be the same device be the same one your streaming software uses.

You not being willing or too lazy to plug in headphones or a mic. No setup can fix that.
It doesn't matter if you are on a laptop or not. Connected to a TV or not.

People hearing you thru a mic connected to your laptop vs using whatever built-in mic has absolutely nothing to do with what you are broadcasting.
How do you have your audio panel configured? or the software audio output: OBS/Xsplit, Mumble, Teamspeak.

Also, not sure if this is even on topic anymore based on OP'S initial question. Does this needs to be moved to a different thread??

Stream more action! This content is so old what does it really matter? Seems it would be a good recruiting tool.

Most raiding is just waiting for shit to spawn. When mobs pop, it'd definitely be cool to watch, but the downtime would be hard to keep viewers watching.
