Hey everyone,

Just to make you all aware Steam has group chat for Steam Groups.

To join these groups is very simple.

1.) On the top toolbar in Steam you should see (Store, Library, Community & "Your Steam Name")

Click on your Steam name

2.) Out of the drop down menu that appears you should see "Groups" Click on that.

3.) This should show all your groups that you are apart of.

You will see the name of the group and underneath that look for something similar to "Number in group Chat" Click on that, This will join you to the group chat of that steam group.

Hey everyone.

Just to give all an update.
We have decided to move away from TeamSpeak as we are no longer using it to its full potential, as well as the increased costs after every 12 months which relates to taking out a new contract at a lower cost for another 12 months.

As Discord is Free and has become increasing more reliable with constant updates and new features being added. We have decided that this would be the best platform to move to.

I would like to ask everyone that is now currently using TeamSpeak for VOIP to use the link below to join our Side Effect Discord server.

I urge you all to move over as soon as you can, because at the end of July / start of August is when the Teamspeak Server will be switched off.

if you have any questions on this move you can contact me and i will happy to answer any questions you have on this subject.
