    :love: RPGCodex Ventrilo Server :love:

    Server address: dm.clanwarz.com
    Port number: 4205
    Status: DOWN
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I. General
    - We now have a ventrilo server for those of us with a morbid fascination for listening to other angry nerds.
    - We've currently got 35 slots on it, but I'll bump it to 50 if space becomes an issue
    - I've made a "guest" password you can use until I get peoples accounts set up.
    - Until further notice, you and your friends can log in with the password: newfag
    - Friends are welcome to log in with the guest password. I'll be rotating it regularly (and PMing Kodex Tru BROs the new one) to prevent cybersquatting.

    II. Getting Started
    1. If you haven't already, download Ventrilo
    2. PM Ulminati and ask nicely (or not so nicely) for an account.
    a. Any poster who's been around for a few months, has made a handful of posts and isn't a shit alt is welcome​
    b. Your user name on vent will be the same as your user name on the codex​
    c. You can tell me what password you'd like, otherwise I'll make one up for you​
    3. Start up ventrilo
    a. Make a user with the same name as your RPGCodex account​
    b. Make a new connection​
    c. Under "hostname or ip" type: dm.clanwarz.com​
    d. Under "port number" type: 4205​
    e. Under "password" type the password used when I made your account. Alternately type the guest password​
    4. Rejoice, brother! You should now be able to log in

    III. Server Rules
    1. Don't be a dick
    2. There is no rule #2

    IV. Frequently Asked Questions
    - Something isn't working! What do!?
    - Post the details here, we'll see if we can figure it out.

    - I want in! Am I monocle enough?
    - As long as you've been around for more than a few months; have posted a handful of posts; and said posts haven't been boring trolls or retarded pony spam, chances are you are.

    - We should totally add/remove this channel
    - Shoot me a message I'll see about getting it done. As a rule of thumb, channels should be game/group specific and not retarded vanity rooms

    - So this is totally jewgold free forever? What's the catch?
    - No catch. I prepaid for the server 3 months in advance and I intend to keep doing so for the foreseeable future.

    - My BRO is not a codex regular. Can he haz an account?
    - Sorry, no. Personal accounts are for prestigious regular posters. He's welcome to use the guest password however

    - What is the guest password
    - Whenever I change it, all regular users will be notified. Probably either through a PM here or by the Message of the Day when they log in on vent

    - BRO, Vent sucks! We should totally use this other voice chat I have a hardon for!
    - Sorry, BRO. We had a quick, not-at-all scientific survey that indicated Ventrilo was the least loathed choice.

    - Wait a second. You're that lazy fag who tends to abandon shit just as it gets good
    - I expect this will be less work™ than writing a Let's Play. If I do end up being too lazy, I'll deputize someone and give them permissions to create users and change the guest password.

    Jaesun who do I need to suck off for a sticky?

    Someone has to be the first and all that jazz. I'll be idling in the GW2 chat while I'm playing, but I realize this may be more of an incentive for people to stay away than join :p

    Compared to Skype the volume's very low, isn't it? I guess Skype cranks up the Gain up to eleven, will have to fiddle up with that

    Setup->Voice->inbound slider
    I have mine on -1 (turned down slightly) since it's fairly loud on my end. You may have activated a voice boost somewhere in skype.

    When I told a friend about this he said, "I bet those users who talk shit on the forum won't do that on this."

    While the idea is nice, Mumble has far superior sound quality compared to Ventrilo.

    Using your weak analogy Mumble would still be superior.

    A more reasonable analogy here would be pixel mess vs clear and crisp pixel art.

    Mumble is shit loved by fags. It's a cult that charges those it has bumfucked into trying to lure others in.

    Alright, we get it. You wish to use ancient and inferior tech for no apparent reason at all. Stay mad, though. :smug:

    I've been banned from every single Vent I've ever joined. It's the only way I leave. Luckily I don't have a head set right now.

    If you'd like me to I can add you to the banlist so you can brag about being banned from servers you didn't join ;)
