If you've been keeping up with RuneScape news like many of us have, you've probably been seeing this coming. Jagex has been asking people about how and why they use voice chat on the forums for a while, but they've finally released a news post and a poll about your voice chat habits.
I'm assuming that in the long run, they're planning to release a [hopefully free] voice chat client of some sort for use with RuneScape and they're using this poll as a form of 'market research' to analyse what RuneScape players want from voice chat programs and what they use them for. The results of the poll so far are surprising in my opinion. Although i rarely ever use voice chat (i think I've only used it once, and it was with Ventrilo), Skype has been voted as the most popular voice chat software! This surprised me, as i know little about Skype and i thought it cost money to use...
Anyway, head on over to the RuneScape website and vote in the poll. Perhaps sometime in the near future we'll see voice chat as a commonly used and easy to access communication medium...
In the meantime, keep on 'Scapin.
