www.skype.com it's free, all you need is a microphone.

COOL! I might as well (although I'll have to do it later on *wink*, we are trying to download music right now...and on dial up...open one more page and the entire computer might self-combust O_O).


Hey, question --

How does Skype work on dial up? Do you get lag, or what? Or is it not possible to run at all. I have a microphone (I'm cool that way), but...

May have to ask on the skype forum (no need to register for the skype forum seperately, you can login using your skype account), I've never used skype on 56k. :)

No guarantees, but since I seem to have a lot of time on my hands, I may listen in. I've been on conference calls with lots of people, and they tend to turn into the sort of incomprehensible mayhem that an IRC channel generates. But I might listen in.

14% complete! Only 2 hours and 37 minutes left to go....

Maybe I should chronicle these exciting adventures in the Land of Dial Up :P Nah, that would be boring even for me (ironically, I wouldn't be able to view it. Slow computer)

Wish I had a mic to join but it might be for the better anyway, don't want all the guys on AN to become gay over me and my uber sexy voice.

Haha, me too. I dunno if I'd talk lol. But yeah, I'll try, I have a microphone, but I'm not sure if I'd be able to do it. My parents may need the computer or something... I don't know... But, I'm house sitting this weekend, and if they have internet connection, I could definitely do it then. (That is, if things go well this time and if everyone is up for another go around.)

I tried. All I could hear was every third sentence from anyone, with the rest lost in an electronic blender. Interesting to hear folks' voices, though.

The Million Dollar Prons
April 5th, 2008, 08:10 PM
LD, Rain, DavenIII, dothacker, Magician Camille and I had a pretty epic conversation about how his dad beats him, and every time Daven III took a drink I asked desslock to say "I'll get you next time sos brigade." 20 times later he left.

Then I added Tidusarun but he refused to sing chocolate rain =( so I sang it

Apparently I was screwing everyone up even though my mic volume was off. Maybe it's just too many people at once.

April 5th, 2008, 09:26 PM
Alright guys, I think we're gonna do it again tomorrow. I suggest everyone who's voice didn't work today look up SKype's website and see what might be causing the problems

Mel Prons and Daven III worked perfectly, LD and Dothacker worked okay, some people downright didn't work at all.

Was my mic working or just causing large amounts of static noise?

Yeah, I ended up quiting the conference thing and just doing a 1 on 1 with Kenshin for about 15 or 20 minutes. It worked out fine.

Also, I think the group conversations suck anyways, I mean, I'd rather speak to just Prons and maybe one other person rather than trying to have 10 people talk at once. I seriously wasted about 30 minutes yesterday trying to get into the damn chat. <_<

Alright folks, I'm gonna set the tenitive chat time to around 7:30 PM to 8 PM Pacific Timeish, It may be a little rough for those on the East coast but a majority of the people who showed up and spent a lot of time in the chat yesterday were from the Westish side. UK users will want to wake up early :P

Once again everyone should test their microphone by calling the Skype test call , basically just call skype user echo123 and test your microphone.

If your mic doesn't work or isn't loud enough, windows users can click Start > Programs > Accessories > Entertainment > Volume control, and go to file, preferences, checking microphone, checking show advanced options, clicking accept, unmuting the microphone, going to advanced and turning on microphone boost or whatever and seeing if you can hear yourself, and then mute it again before skype voice chatting with us.

REmember, skype is 100% free unless you call telephones, but because this is just a computer to computer confrence there's no need to worry about being feed or anything. Also you can change your dispaly name on skype by

The skype user list has been updated on page 1 to show everyone who uses skype on an, if I am missing anyone please tell me

how late did you guys end up staying up, I went to sleep around 1am I think eastern time...(gotta get to my office job in the mornings)

also I'm gonna need to find out how the "Tatu" nickname came about, because thoe girls are hawt! :P

Tidusauron12
April 7th, 2008, 10:19 AM
I stayed until about half past 3 AM, then my mom came and got pissed that I was chatting over the internet with people I didn't know at 3 in the morning, xD.

Anyways, I got the name tatu because I said I'd prefer if they called me TA12 instead of tidusauron. Prons pointed out how similar TA12 was to tatu... so they started calling me that. It was awesome, we were linking tatu videos from youtube all night long (somehow, 2G1C even got thrown in there! :censored:)!

It was fun!

Anyways, the best part is that I got to 'meet' Rain/Mel. Always wanted to get to know her (if you're reading this Rain, you and Neko gave me plenty of lawls last night!).

I actually might try to get back on tonight. Sadly, I could only hear about every third or forth word -- but I think that maybe my sister's movie was preventing the sound? Static?

Not sure.

I'll try in a little while, since my father is currently watching something *shrugs*. If it works, Videl you HAVE to get a mic and join up!! ^_^

Last night would have been perfect for me to try again -- I was alone, no TV, no annoying family members drifting in and out of the room to bother me. Dessy wasn't even on; no distractions :P

I don't think it'll have much affect on how you sound. About 3/4ths of the time, a lot of the people just sound like drugged up robots. It's part of the Skype experience, making fun of people's voices. Then again, if your voice completely changes when you aren't sick anymore, it'll be really odd...

No fujyoshi you really don't have to do anything with a phone number or money.

All you really do is register a name, it's free, and you can call any computer for free.

The pay for services are if you want to use skype to call actual phones. Like if you were using skype and you wanted to call your friends cellphone. Or if you wanted it so people could call you using their land lines.

I tried it once. It sounded like a bunch of voices in an electronic blender, with occasional snippets where a couple of the voices were clear enough to understand for a few seconds.

Not entirely unlike that time I ate the Guatemalan Insanity Pepper, really.

Anyway, I uninstalled Skype. Didn't need it. I'm sure it works great for the rest of you. Enjoy. I'll save my sarcasm for the main forum.

This is what happened to me the first time through. The second time, there were less people, and we could talk clearly... but Skype isn't for me. :lol:

The only thing I use it for now is trying to find Chinese peeps to chat with... Unfortunately it causes IE to not work correctly, but that doesn't matter because I only use FF anyways.

Hi, there's a lot of things to do.

I usually find chatting partners by country, skype is a great way to learn languages, and to just meet students because there's about a gazillion people on there trying to learn English. As it stands my skype list is about 2-3 feet long (I counted it before, it'd easily be over 5 feet if I didint' clean it out every six months), to give you an idea of how many people it's possible to meet.

As for things to do, there's a lot of little games and such, Skype Chinese Checkers is really fun, but the rest of the games that were on there last time sucked.

Of course skype has very good voice chat and webcamera functions.

We used to have anime nation skype nights, there was a gigantic thread and on the first post was a pretty big "directory" of an users that used skype."

You know, it's interesting you mention that. After I merged the threads, I noticed there was a title change. Either another moderator stepped in, or the merge did it automatically (which isn't likely...but...whatever).

There's a ton of headsets, and there's a lot of stand up micrphones that stand up on your desk infront of your face so it looks like you're talking into a phallic symbol, but other than that they're light weight and easy to fold up and set away.

Anyway, you have plenty of options for microphones, most new computers even have built in ones if I remember right (I remember seeing it listed as features at Circuit City)

Buy a Skype headset directly from...well....Skype. Don't support Walmart, they need to burn.

There's a skype store? If so I surely must go.

If you want to go to such a place, it seems they keep deleting my threads. Which reminds me I need to go ***** at them, see you can screen cap webcams on skype, but the naming scheme is "Video Call Snapshot #" instead of the time and date. Is that a problem? Well for me and what I do for a living yeah

Man it's so cool that Skype has it's name on EVERYTHING now. For real, there's Skype webcams, skype mics, I wonder what they'll put their name on next.
