Quick Links
Get Ventrilo
Edge Gamers Organization Vent server and setup information
INTRO:
In short, Ventrilo - in short, Vent - is a Server in which mulitple clients connect and are able to communicate verbally. This means, you are able to talk to people all around the world - or just up the road.
"VENTING'' WITH =(eGO)=™
The links above will get you started. Once you have connected, you will see many rooms - from a main lobby to game channels. These channels, for the most part, do not require a password. This means that you as a user are free to connect to the server and join most any room you want.
However
Many rooms are password protected. They are leadership rooms, private event / meeting rooms, and some league/gaming rooms.
Note:
On occasion, and depending on the situation - request, rooms that would normally be locked with a password may become so without notice.
CHANNELS EXPLAINED
Channels, or "Rooms" - are locations in the Vent server where users meet. Much like rooms in a hotel or apartment. They are apart of the main server - but private and only those in the room can hear what is said within it.
Lobby
This is the default room and the room you are automatically placed in when you first connect to Vent. This room is muted, meaning no one will hear you talk when you join.
New Recruit rooms
These are intended for recruiting and for newer members to hang out it. Most members of the P.S.C [formerly Recruters, formerly Admin Recruiters] frequent these rooms. They are always available for question and is where newer members are directed to when they have questions.
Ofcourse, we do not require new members to stay in these rooms - eGO vent does have 250 slots....
General Rooms
These rooms don't really have a purpose beyond just existing. They are for general use. Some that are popular are:
- Hanging out
- A meeting place for people
- Small meetings [less than ten (10) people]
- A place to hang out when in game not asociated with eGO
- Music bot rooms
- Work rooms
- Interview rooms
- <--That is a bullet point
Mostly the same as the These are rooms you join when in a specific game. Being in these channels does a few things without words
- Shows that you are in a game
- Shows that you are willing to communicate while in that game
- Would like others to join you while you play that game
- like talking while playing
- <--That is a bullet point
Misc Use Rooms [MUR's]
Examples of these rooms are:
- Mapping Channel
- Media Team
- <--That is a bullet point
D.A.K
Where you are sent when Respawn or Gen-ig get fed-up with you, or you go AFK for a certain amount of time

I will update the F.A.Q as often as I can. This guide was typed up by me, myself, and I. Misquoting or claiming it as your own will lead you down a path you won't return from.
