You're up there in the channel chatting away — down here 17 helpers work for you around the clock. They greet you in your language, tell you in advance when trouble is coming, set up your channel and remember how long you've been here. You don't have to do anything for it, and you don't pay a thing.
All of it private messages straight inside TeamSpeak — no newsletter, no email, no sign-up. And always in the language that fits your country.
Come to one of our servers for the first time and you get exactly one friendly message — in your own language. Never again after that.
Explains to you before anything happens what an attack is and that it will pass. Anyone who's been warned doesn't run away when things stutter for a moment.
If something new is waiting for you, he gives a short knock — only while you're online, and only if there really is something new.
If someone writes to you through your profile while you're offline, he keeps the message and delivers it the moment you're back.
Counts every minute you were really here and automatically gives you ranks for it. Nothing to buy, nothing to apply for — only showing up counts.
Spots which game you're playing and hands you the matching role if you want it. That's how people who play the same thing find you.
Writes into a channel's description who the regulars are. That way everyone sees at a glance whose place they've landed in.
On most TeamSpeak servers a channel is a grey box with a name on it. Here somebody makes sure it actually looks like something.
If you open a channel and it catches on, he makes it permanent — with an icon and a background. Otherwise it would vanish the moment the last person leaves.
Keeps the icon library stocked and up to date, so you can pick a symbol for your channel with one click.
Gathers the finest channel backgrounds every week and crowns a winner. Your wallpaper could be in there.
Collects the background images from the servers and keeps a copy — so the website stays fast and the TeamSpeak server isn't asked over and over.
Fetches your real TeamSpeak picture so you show up on the website with the same face as in the channel.
This part you'll ideally never notice. That's exactly the point.
Constantly measures ping and packet loss — the things you actually hear while talking. If it gets bad, we know before you do.
Knocks on every server and asks: are you still running? How many people are on, how many seats are free. That's where the live numbers on the front page come from.
Looks up who is behind an attacker's address. That way a lone troublemaker doesn't stay unknown for long.
Collects the addresses of well-known free VPNs. Anyone hiding behind one to cause trouble doesn't get in. Normal players notice nothing.
Constantly puts aside a copy of all live data. If a TeamSpeak server wobbles, the website stays up anyway and shows you the last known state.
These ones put on no show — they keep the website fed with data and clean up after everyone else. For the sake of completeness:
Why do we build all this? Because otherwise a free TeamSpeak server is exactly that: an empty room you can talk in. Here the server recognises you, speaks your language, furnishes your room and tells you before something goes wrong.
And it stays free, without signing up and without ads. No premium, no slots for sale. If you want to know how to start: First steps — or just pick a server straight from the server list.
