Just as a disclaimer, I'm not asking for changes to the Nebulous server or anything like that, just wanted to share my thoughts on a general level.
it might be a lot to ask of people but if you're not a dickhead to each other then it doesn't matter what you sound like. it seems to work pretty well in the tabletop rpg community, don't see why that has to change here
I mean, whether it matters or not is up to personal preference, even if you completely remove the "dickhead angle" from the equation. Preferring text is also about immersion and freedom to portray anyone you want the way you want with just your writing/describing. Even in the TTRPG community are those who would rather describe what their character says in third person than to say it directly.
But yeah, I get there are a lot of people who prefer voice, too.
