Voice and text channels should be separated to make community management more easy. Text messages should be stored in a database so users can see past messages even if they were offline. For example, if someone sends a meme in a meme channel while I’m offline, I should be able to see it when I join the server. Similarly, if I post an announcement in the announcement channel, other users should be able to see it when they join the server. Additionally, there should be a small notification icon when a new message is sent to a channel.
I think these features should be added to teamspeak improve itself.
The Teamspeak 5 Matrix server, which has been discontinued for some time, had persistent chat! I hope and want the teamspeak 6 server to have persistent chat again sometime in the future
I’d like to suggest (or request help enabling) text-only channels in TeamSpeak 6, where:
Users can communicate via text (no voice).
Message history is saved on the server.
Admins/moderators can manage (edit, delete, or moderate) messages.
This would be useful for announcements, rules, or general chat without requiring voice activity. Does TeamSpeak 6 currently support this? If not, could it be added in a future update?
Yes, Textchannels should be a thing, but there needs to be a way to see the Size of the chat, becuase if Users share memes, it can quickly fill up storage
It would be nice to see a response from the devs regarding this (if they haven’t said something about this already). I really want to make a permanent switch to Teamspeak over Discord and I know many other friends that are willing to do so, but Teamspeak really needs text only channels integrated into a server. I know that group chats already exist, but having server members also be required to be in a group chat (which would also be just a singular channel and the data being stored on Teamspeak’s servers if I am not mistaken) is not ideal.
I am aware that there are more important things right now, but I hope the devs will say something about this.
This request came up many times in the past when talking about new features, at some point prior we tried using the group chat system (Matrix) for the channel chats as well as implementing them in a Text channel way, However this was not reliable and stable enough so we returned back to our own protocol chat.
Currently screen share is still our main topic and we’ll see what the future brings.
i would love to have the ability to create a group chat, that everyone in the server can just access without having to join the specific channel.
The biggest benefit would be a central point where admins could post information regarding everyone and having a sort of “hub” for everybody to share things over. I know, that you can just create a group chat in general, but i would love to have this on my own server where i would also have the messages/ files etc. for privacy purposes.
Also the “general” group chat seems to be very slow with sending pictures etc.
Having a central group chat that everyone can access without joining a specific channel would definitely make communication smoother. It’d be great to have one place where admins can post important updates and everyone can share stuff easily.
