sounds great as long as theres a filter to block out people you dont know. i can already tell that there will be immature people yelling or blaring music into the voice chat. if i ever use voice chat i would only talk to friends. maybe a clan chat voice. idk :D

Voice Chat - Your thoughts

Oké here I go.
There is normal chat, pm and clan chat....and still people are dumbasses and share personal intel with the result they get hacked.
To many players in this game are to lazy or to dumb to realize they have a certain level of responsebility of their own.
Adding this feature might give you more players...but it als WILL INCREASE the recent problems.
People will get hacked easier.
With certain specific question it is posible to collect the information you need for a decent hack attempt.
You, Jagex, WILL lose any control of what players say to eachother.
Besides the scamming and abusive language...keep in mind ****** talk will most likely happen and not to think of the dirty minded sick brained pedofiles in this game.
I URGE you to put this idea in the fridge and then shoot this idea to the sun...if not for the game then for the players.
With this idea you will put players in dangers...and i am not talking about the stupid scams or abusive language dangers...i am talking about irl dangers!
Please...pretty pleasy with a cherry on top please...DO NOT CONTINUE ON THIS IDEA!!!!!!!!!!

This would be very nice to start voice talkings with people in your friend list. Is this also just ine the clan? I think you should only do this with friend list and clan chat, because people will going to hack and yell either.

From a parents point of view and retired LEO, I don't think its a very bright idea to introduce voice chat into the RuneScape program. If others are doing this now using alternate-secondary programs while they play, so be it. They probably know each other well enough for it to be safe and harmless.
I've on occasion come across players following/circling each other and have seen them slip up sending a message public rather than private... Shall I say it was a bit ear burning erotic to the least. This occurred within a free world I was visiting to see a non member friend. So, to be expected I guess.
If RS planers see fit to implement such a feature, I would strictly limit it to members and correspond it to the friends list in such a way that the person you speak with must have been on your friends list for a month or two.
Or correspond to a high level difficult quest in order to unlock the toggle.... Much like some of our emotes.
This would be a safety feature to help us keep **** Joe and Filthy Jill out of our RuneScape community. I think this would help keep the praying creeps from crawling out from behind there sheep's masks and harming our RS community.

As it is now, RS can tare down a server and backtrack the chats and give that info to investigating Law agencies if a problem arised that they needed the information.... How on earth could this be accomplished with voice comms? I see a very problematic ordeal with this idea.
Thats my 2 cents worth of thoughts and advice for the day.

yeah i think a voice chat system would be great and i would enjoy talking to my friends without using another voice chat program e.g skype, ventrilo, *** etc
But the only way i could see this work is. If there was a voice chat party system were u would have to invite or be invited to be able to speak over a microphone to the people you chose to speak to, because if you could openly speak while playing runescape all the time, u would go in to a bank and there would be masses of people shouting and being anoying, and i would think that it would be very offputting towards some people
but i hope that voice chat does get added to game because its a great idea and would make the game even more fun then it is already, but it will be intresting to see how you chose to do it :)

I must admit Mod Kathy this is a great idea, but I couldn't have time to pay for it because I have to leave money out to pay for the more higher priority personal things I need to do before Runescape, you know what I mean? I hope it's free so everyone is able to enjoy it. Good luck. ^^
