    I don’t speak on Voice chat though, mainly because many gamers online are racist (and sexist) pigs. Back in the day I did used to use TeamSpeak to talk to others in games and they both be racist toward me, and make fun of my voice saying I sound like a girl.

    So, text only from now on, if reading is too hard especially with spelling mstakes if I’m doing it quickly in game, fuck them.

    I do think this could have some use for me though, particularly with private calls which I’d prefer other people to not hear the other side of, though it’s still very hard to justify it since it just looks way too silly.

    Edit: Oh and it’s way too fucking expensive, but of course it is, it’s targeted at “gamers” they’re a crowd that is stupid enough to buy anything even if it is insanely overpriced, they already do it with their overpowered gaming PCs, so it’s not surprising they’d do it with their accessories too.

      I’m sorry that is your experience. I play overwatch and have met many people with similar experiences. I try to be a safe and fun person to play with specifically with people like you in mind. I hope you find friends to have with that you feel comfortable enough to chat and be friends with.
