We were just using Ventrilo because it is more commonly used and it makes it much easier to have ringers, more universal, and a personal preference to some of the members.
When I joined the team I thought FishaY was the leader and he told me that he had no problem with Ventrilo. Also, at the time I was not aware that FragWorld and a2k were both owned by you, TriggerPappy. I thought the TeamSpeak 3 server was no more than a public server considering that there was only one "a2k" channel. I was not trying to barge in on the entire community that at the time I was not aware of, I simply thought it would be a good decision.
If you have a problem with us using Ventrilo, since I am the one who purchased it, I would have no problem closing it and seeing if there is a way that I could either find another team that is in need of a Ventrilo server to give it to or see if I could get a partial refund.
It did cost me about $60 for the Ventrilo server so it does give me a stomache ache seeing it going to waste, but at the same time I understand that I did not confront nor talk to triggerpappy about the Ventrilo server so I cannot do much more than take responsibility for not asking before I switched the MW2 team to Ventrilo.
TeamSpeak does have it's advantages, such as auto mic boost and reduction, higher codec, and a feature which eliminates the majority of background noise. I would say that TeamSpeak is an all around better VoIP than Ventrilo, but not as universally used, therefore in the past (with other teams I have been in) it has become more of a hassle than anything.
