    I might sound like a newb, but I'm assuming TS = Teamspeak?
    The 3 is the version? The 3 is what's throwing me off. /shrug

    I remember me and kyoji playing with it together when it first came out, it was really cool actually.

    Ah, at least Prime can make it. It's likely that apart from him the entire GW leadership will be working then.

    I remember using Roger Wilco back when I played competively in the
    Quake and RTCW / Unreal Tourney days.

    I used TF2 in my BF2 clan (before XoO obv.) and I have to say
    that I don't mind using TF2, but I feel like Vent "loads" easier. /shrug.

    TF2? I imagine you mean TS2. This is the newer version(Teamspeak 3)which is in a type of 'open beta' stage since Feb of this year.

    When I started running clans, our first voice server was also Roger Wilco. My...that was a long time ago now.

    Yeah, sorry. I haven't had to type TS in a LONG LONG time, I have typed
    TF2 far more often than TS. Apologies. I really meant just 'TS'.

    And yeah, Roger Wilco was a long time ago, but was my first true "voice" experience.

    I'm not sure if I can attend the meeting due to time difference so I will put my input now.

    - I am 100% agreeable that we should change to TS3.

    Other than that I think everything is running smoothly.

    TS3 seems very nice. Sound quality is great, the capabilities are much greater than Vent right now. I really like it so far.

    Its just a test server so we don't have a pass on it I believe.

    A password can easily be added. Another plus thanks to how TS3 handles user authentication is that once you are elevated to the member user group you need no password at all if you are logging in from the same client.

    Hey, I'm easy. I've played with TS1, TS2, TS3, Vent, RL & Onboard game Comms, etc. Except for a little lag and audible differences...it all works. Besides, I'm still fresh...you guys just point and I kill!!! :D

    I will probably not be able to attend the meeting because of my schedule. Working on finding someone else who will be able to make it.

    I'm excited to hear about the progress TS3 makes within the Xen Community. Will this be an additional service or will ventrilo be closed for use? It will be difficult because most, if not all WoW guilds use Vent right now for pick up groups and cross-guild functions. Not sure what other games are like.

    Any plans to incorporate SC2 to XoO when it releases?

    As far as XoO Sargeras goes we are better than we've ever been and advancing through the game very rapidly. I'm also seeing a lot of older players return to the game. If any of you ever decided to return to WoW you are welcome to come on board as casuals.

    1. I'm not sure about that. That was one of my concerns I raised to Dash at first. You will probably see more WoW guilds switching to TS3 in the future though.

    2. Yes. We have a bunch of people playing beta right now. We will probably have someone talk about it at the meeting. If you have specific questions about it, post them.

    3. yay!

    It's not a leadership meeting, It's a community meeting.

    I think he just means an officer or someone who knows about everything thats going on.

    Also, for everyone to look at, the CoC has been posted. To get to it (other than this link) check the homepage and click on it under navigation. http://www.xoohq.com/index.php?pageid=coc

    Any chance of a rundown on what all happened in the meeting? I would much appreciate it since I was busy working on stuff last night at totally spaced thinking the meeting was tonight.
