I mean c'mon windows XP/Vista is too old. You can't expect developers to still support it.
Other than that, me and many others here use discord on a daily basis and we've no problems whatsover with it.

Discord is not just a VoIP service it almost runs like a forum. All the text is saved there, and the voice and text channels are separated. So you don't have to be in a voice channel to send a message to the clan. Also, it's almost 100% troll free.[/quote]

The troll problem in Mumble is overstated, and I'm doing quite fine in FG with my 'obsolete' OS I can make/record videos, connect online and run

programs in the background. Ask yourself why FG still has FGrun present as an alternative to FGGo or whatever that new bloatware loading app is.

The Devs asked about the average FG users a couple years back it was a poll/feeler about new features. Do you do know what they found out, right?

Most are running Windows and most are running Win7 32 bit or less.

Discord is bloatware and it's got a few arrogant OS snobs to boot.

They made their own bed as far as I'm concerned.

Fgrun has been discontinued. :roll:

I have a laptop running win 7 and discord has no problem with it. I can guarantee that.

In that image, the first column shows cpu usage, 2nd shows RAM, then HDD, and then network usage.
At max the cpu usage can go to 3% that is it.
Discord is the VoIP that most of them use nowadays. And their user base is only growing, I don't see them falling down anytime soon.

Why do I imagine that what I say is not what you read?

I try again.. I've already tried Discord, connecting to the VOIP app was a problem, their website portal is always lagging or completely cutting off, and as much as I tried, it could not even find my microphone, and whomever was trying to speak at the time was coming through in garbled pulses.

So yeah, not a real great first experience. I'm not expecting then to accommodate everyone, but the fact is Mumble chat still works for my machine, and frankly I don't see Mumble going away anytime soon.

OK -- I setup a server with alot of the basic channels that are in allfex, several languages, some ATC rooms, and anyone can make their own ATC room.

As I said address: "itpns.ddns.net" with port 64738 (default).

It's there if you want to use it, I know already some ATCs and such will move over there.

Kind Regards,
Josh

Apologies everyone -- the snow knocked out the power this morning, and killed my router -- it's now replaced, and the server is up and running again.

Kind Regards,
Josh
