    We now have a VoIP server for all us to chat on in real time!

    To connect, you'll need to download a mumble client from here: http://mumble.sourceforge.net/

    After installing, run Mumble and go to Server > Connect > Add New

    You can name the Servername anything you want (e.g. "neofriends.net mumble")
    Address is "neofriends.net"
    Port is the default port (64738)
    Username is any username you choose, preferably your real NF username

    After successfully connecting, right-click your name and hit Register.

    Everyone should come and just hang out on Mumble whenever :D

    I come from a land down under! (Maaaate!)
    Haha I just downloaded it and am using it.. Seems there is one other person using it.

    Just a thought, anyway to make this topic/thread private to only level 1+ to stop just anyone from being able to see this and join the chat.. Just for privacy reasons?

    And might be a good idea to add a warning to the initial post - There are some errr... strange people in this world that like to chat about some weird things. So users beware ;) Don't just randomly drop into a room/server :)

    Apart from that, looks good :D

    (I'm the only one in there ATM)

    cough "Posted: Sun Mar 07, 2010 2:15 am"

    By that same logic, the chatbox should also be made Level 1+. There's nothing that should be exclusive about chatting.

    Audio chat. VoIP = Voice over IP

    There's also a text-to-speech feature which works pretty well most of time (albeit it gets a bit annoying).

    I can't understand about half of what you say but it's not bad; I can deal with heavy accents pretty well, it just takes a bit of getting used to. Better to have an accent then not on account of poshness.
