After much talk with Matt the Ventrilo is finally live and kicking. It's a bit of an experiment, as we don't know just how busy it will get. Seeing the old Ventrilo had 30+ unique users everyday I'm quite exited about how this will go.
I'll be the one leading the administration, so I just want to drop some rules on you all while I have your attention:
Do not fake your rank. We will know.
Do not channel or mic spam.
Racism is not tolerated at ANY level, and will get you instantly and permanently banned.
Do not link porn in your comment, in the chat, or anywhere else.
Do not link to content that is in any way hazardous to a computer (e.g virus', adware, malware).
Do not scream out curse-words for the world to hear.
General rules of behavior applies at all times. It shouldn't be that hard! :)
Rank explanations:
Admin
- Your basic administrator. Has access to every single command available.
Mod
- Works much like the server police. Can kick and move.
Veteran
- Vanity title given to the Veterans on MOBAFire. No extra powers.
Regular
- Rank that registered users get. Has the ability to record chat sessions.
Guest
- Default rank set when logging on. Can't record.
How to Normalize Ventrilo
Tired of X person being too loud, or N person being too low? Just normalize your Ventrilo to avoid any future ear-bleeds or the need to turn someone's volume up!
1) Go to Setup
2) Enable "Use Direct Sound" (It's a check-box in the upper-right)
3) Click the SFX button
4) Select 'Compressor' and click 'Add'
5) Under 'Compressor Properties' use the following settings:
- Gain = Adjust for how loud you want people to be, so find your own softspot (I use 15)
- Attack = 0.01
- Release = Around 500
- Threshold = Around -30
- Ratio = 100
- Pre delay = 4.0
6) DONE!

Also: I got banned for spamming. Hah. I was just cycling through the DOTAFire channels to see if anyone was on, and then I got banned.
And how do we set our rank?
I have to set your rank. If any of the colored names are interested in having a rank just pm me with a password you would like to use to sign in. Otherwise you will be [Guest] until you come on regularly enough to give you a [Regular] tag. :)
Also I will unban you, haha. It will automatically ban you if you switch channels really fast to prevent people using bots to crash the server. :P
But it's great that we have our own vent server :)
There are multiple channels, and being good at English is not a requirement for using Vent. :) You can just hop in a channel with other people who speak the language you're best at, or just say "I want to play" if people ask you! XD
