<li> '''Get on [[Teamspeak]], and move to the Combat Lounge.''' <br> It is absolutely essential, in fact a requirement, for you to be on Teamspeak for fleet operations. If you're not on Teamspeak, you cannot join or follow the fleet. The Fleet Commander (FC) does not have time to type everything out or issue broadcasts. <br><br> Once you are in a fleet, you are to move yourself to the appropriate wing channel in order to hear communications with your fleet. Stay silent until the operation is over and the Fleet Commander declares open mic. Small gangs are often less strict about voice comm discipline; however in large fleets it is impractical for everyone to have authorization to speak. Make sure your Teamspeak settings are set up correctly. This mostly means you have a '''push-to-talk button''' (PTT) and not voice-activated. <br/><br/> Also, make sure your push-to-talk button is not "Ctrl", or any other button you would use for anything else. And remember Alt is often used to Alt-tab out or Alt-Enter for windowed mode. Shift is used for caps so it is another bad choice. The F9 key is not used for anything in the Eve Client, nor for most other software you might operate, so it is a good choice until you can figure out which key would be best. We don't want to have to hear you breathing. We don't want to hear the clicking of your keyboard when you type an email either. '''Set your push-to-talk key correctly.'''<br/><br/> Disable Teamspeak sound notifications. Settings menu > Options > Sound Notifications > check the 'Disable All sounds' box. Sound notifications can be loud and prevent you from hearing the FC, especially with a lot of people in Teamspeak connecting and disconnecting. Also an occasional griefer may be spamming the Docking Bay.<br/><br/> If you have not properly set up your Teamspeak, please refer to the [[Teamspeak|Teamspeak Guide]].<br/><br/> | <li> '''Get on [[Teamspeak]], and move to the Combat Lounge.''' <br> It is absolutely essential, in fact a requirement, for you to be on Teamspeak for fleet operations.
