Author Topic: I possibly got phished by a phony Teamspeak site.  (Read 1622 times)

Good for you guys. I guess I must just live in an upside-down world, because Skype works great for me and Teamspeak does not. -.-

A. Teamspeak's GUI interface is very unintuitive. It took me 15 minutes of looking through it to even figure out how to join a channel. - you just double click it/right click it how hard is it
B. Teamspeak's GUI interface has crap-tier-graphics comparable to that of Windows 98 - grafix ogm
C. Teamspeak functions so that you can't just call someone. You have to go through all this technical crap of IP Addresses and channels just to reach someone - I don't think that's what Teamspeak was meant for.
D. Anyone can join a teamspeak chat with you if they find your chatroom. This is counterproductive compared to Skype's calling system where only you can choose who to add to the call - Actually, if you have the privilege to, you can drag and/or kick people out of the room and then lock it down.
E. The call quality is extremely poor compared to Skype - Hasn't been for me.
F. No support for profile pictures - Actually, there are profile pictures. Click on a name and scroll down.
G. Sucks for showing bugs to other people in indie games as it doesn't have a sharescreen capability - Chatroom. You can just take a screenshot and upload it quickly and paste the link. Sure, it may take a while longer, but still. Also, again, I don't think Teamspeak was made for that.

Skype's interface is smooth, clean, and easy-to-use. The call quality is good and you can control who you do and don't want in a chat with you without having to use a password. It works smoothly with gaming and Its gotten the job done for me for many years now.

Alrighty then.

Guys lets move onto another subject before we derail the whole topic because you're disappointed that Planr doesn't find Teamspeak appealing. How about we discuss the possible phishing problem?

There is no problem. OP is dumb and can't read.

TeamSpeak is for superior hardcore gamers. Anything else is for filthy casuals and nerds who don't play games Kappa

that's what you get for calling teamspeak "a really crappy program compared to skype, with a hideous interface and website"
but it's true

Teamspeak is for playing with a bunch of strangers you don't know and don't want to know

Skype is for talking with friends and family as a FREE ALTERNATIVE to phone.

Don't tell me i should talk with my mum by inviting her to a teamspeak chatroom with 50 complete strangers while playing battlefield.

Also my voice is extremely stupid and squaky thru a mic

FREE ALTERNATIVE
Disclaimer: Skype is expensive when used with Cellular Data Connections. (GPRS, Edge, 3G, 4G or LTE).
Disclaimer: Cheaper to use with the WiFi of the coffee shop down the road.

Disclaimer 1.: Maybe
Disclaimer 2.: What is?

Still, I never said Skype is better for gaming, I just said it's not even designed for gaming unlike TS so comparing them is kinda stupid

Yet more proletariat hate, typical American mindset.


teamspeak is a waste of time
I'm also not going to pay for a chat service for my phone
