Teamspeak

[Alucard]

Is there any chance that this could be implemented? It would be really great if it could that way people wouldn't need to have two or more different hosts.

I hope not, can you imagine the bandwidth usage?

Teamspeak is now a licensed product, one which requires you to pay per stream. There is also a monthly minimum fee per server, which is 100 slots (14.00) regardless if it's being used or not.

We may consider this in the future, but until we can pick through their licensing, right now I'd have to say no.

Any host that's providing this must be licensed - and if not is subject to 6 months of back charges


Authorized TeamSpeak Host Provider (ATHP-Based Licensing)
Authorized TeamSpeak Host Providers (ATHPs) are entities that rent TeamSpeak servers to others for profit, typically charging their customers a monthly fee. You are subject to ATHP usage based licensing fees if you charge an access or rental fee either directly, indirectly, OR via inclusion of a TeamSpeak server as part of any rental or other paid service. All ATHPs are billed in arrears based on usage information that is automatically tracked by our software. Invoices are generated on the 1st day of every month and are due on the 15th of every month. ATHPs that fail to comply with our licensing requirements may have their servers suspended without notice. We will make every effort to contact you first if you are in violation of our licensing terms.

Examples where ATHP-Based Licensing applies:

* Direct Fees - If you charge a monthly rental or usage fee for a TeamSpeak server OR channel you are subject to ATHP licensing fees.
* Indirect Fees - If you are a business entity and 'sponsor' a clan and ask them to advertise for you in return for the use of a TeamSpeak server OR channel you are subject to ATHP licensing fees.
* Inclusion Fees - Game Server Providers (GSPs) that host a TeamSpeak server OR channel to someone who is paying a monthly fee to rent a game server are subject to ATHP licensing fees.

Would it be possible to use Skype for your team speaking?
