I got a few questions regarding to this:

1. I heard it is not safe at all and people are getting hacked because of it. Is it true? Why?

2. Ok first what do i do with it? What programs and computer parts i need?

3. How do you ensure that you're safe when you download the program?

I think that's all i just want to ask

I have no idea how using TS could be related to getting hacked in sro. Probably pure nonsense.

All you need is a soundcard and a headset. You can download the TS client on http://www.goteamspeak.com/

After you've installed/configured it, all you need is a TS server to connect on. There are plenty of public server available (you'll find a list in the client itself).

On a side note, you're always welcome to use my TS server. Just pm me if you're interested. I can setup a separate channel for your guild if you like.

Your confusing vent with bots.
Bots = unsafe.
Vent = safe.

I prefer ventrilo because it appears on the taskbar. That and its what my guild uses.

I recall someone mentioning that the personb hosting the Teamspeak account can see the members IP addresses. Though this may lead to some hacking as long as you have a halfway decent Firewall (TPF FTW!) you can prevent it.

Anyone with admin rights can indeed see everyones ip adress, but last time I checked that never hurt anyone

Go with vent, much better codec then TS (better, clearer sound)

And the only way to get hacked is if the hoster is a good hacker and hacks thru your firewall into your comp, since he can see your ip. But it's not very likely.

me and dually use skype... cause we're too lazy to get vent lol skype is ok, aint as high quality as vent (dunno about ts aint used it), but it works fine for what we want to do

Ok thanks guys i only have headset with no speaker . Thanks for the info
