thread_title:  Official Ventrilo site labeled as spam? 

message: Regarding the most recent edit which added: Many would-be users of Ventrilo use other voice chat programs because of the incompatibility of many users kernel32.dll file with Ventrilo. Can we get some more information about this? A source/indication of where "many" is coming from? A google search for ventrilo kernel32.dll turned up nothing relevant. A Ventrilo forums search did turn up 5 people with problems over the last year, but without anything more, that seems like a very insignificant number.
In the end I have no problems with statement if it's true, I've just never heard of this being a problem for people before. --Battlehamster 09:24, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Ventrilo is a - - program for - - Linux.
I think the above sentence is misleading. There is no Linux version of the Ventrilo client (yet). It's been 'in development' for a long time, maybe a year and a half. I've heard nothing of it since I first saw it on Ventrilo's site. Until the Linux client is released, it should be mentioned in a different way. Nothing suitable comes into my mind though..

replies: text: I (along with others) have written a Ventrilo client for Linux called Mangler.  It is available via the GPL license.  I don't want to modify this page because I am first party, but a quick google search for "mangler ventrilo" should point you in the right direction.  Ekilfoil (talk) 09:46, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  No Linux client 

message: Why is this "software" listed under similar programs? The software does not exist, and neither does the web site. Suposedly, it's supposed to be out in 2007, but should something that does not yet exist and who's web site is currently dead even be listed? The listing should be removed.

thread_title:  Pronunciation? 

message: Maybe I'm just really slow, but only after listening to Jeff Dunham and friends a few days ago I realized Ventrilo may be named after ventriloquism, or -ist. Does anyone know if this is actually the case? Is there a source for that? Google and I can't seem to find anything on the official site. The name's origin seems relevant. :) Retodon8 (talk) 20:19, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Retodon8, You are correct. The app is named after Ventrillo, a device the Johnson Smith Company used to sell. It was advertised in comic books and magazines. It supposedly let you "throw your voice." See, for example, http://barbarabbookblog.blogspot.com/
Hope this helps! Darci (talk) 14:17, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ventriloquism? 

message: I mean come on it's notable enough to be included in the article, it's a friggin' Internet meme now, check this out: , 
There's over 1,000 Ventrilo harassment videos on YouTube and it's the only reason why when you google Ventrilo your getting close to 3 million hits, every 2nd link takes to a Ventrilo Harrassment videoclip.
I really think it deserves a little mention because practically ANYONE who uses Ventrilo is well aware of the notorious "vent harassment" epidemic on Vent channels.
