Battlezone 1

LOL. I am certainly curious to find out how that would go...

Was it intentional that clients do not have permission to send text messages?

Is that something new? I haven't touched default permissions since the beginning.

Well, I don't remember TS2 even having non-private text messaging capabilities, but it appears TS3 has it.

Got me a headset now. A logitech one is $19.36 (including tax) here in my town.

Had issues with TS3 for win2k but I fixed it.

is anyone using this speak anymore?

BattleDroid42 wanted me to put up a list, so here it is...

Nice list.

Oh Spock, I figured out the text chat error, I have to text chat in "Eagle's Nest" instead of "battlezone1.net". I wasn't aware of the tabs at first. Everything works great... except my internet.

How to use TeamSpeak 3 on dial up (AKA No More RoboSpork )

I use lower audio quality by creating my own channel:

In particular, notice the position of the slider. (1.17 kbps)

When I do that and everybody joins my channel, I don't have any drastic ping spikes when chatting. Of course it doesn't sound as good, but I can understand people.

"RoboSpork" comes from the fact that I sound like a robot in the default channels at full audio quality because my connection cannot send it fast enough. I used TeamSpeak at 1.17kbps during a game. I didn't notice the same lag I saw in TeamSpeak 2, there was little to no (extra) lag.

is sitting in teamspeck right now
my nickname in teamspeck is either lone fox, dux bellum

I updated my client to beta 28 today...

This is the first time I ever saw a message like this after updating TeamSpeak.

That happens from time to time. It means I have to update the TeamSpeak server.

Are we ever going to have BZ nights like we discussed?

Teamspeak is wonderful when you have a spammer in a game... Kyle was doing it yesterday.

Yeah, he probably placed a coin roll on the enter key and went AFK. Would be nice if BZ had in-game mute.
