Are there established and reputable servers for the game on TeamSpeak? (or Discord, if I have to)?
Thanks!
FWIW, I find it pretty out & out STUPID for ZOS to ignore chat on PC. No excuses there, epic fail!

They didn't ignore it on PC. It was not included because there are other options and most of the PC community would rather use those options rather than be subjected to 12 year olds spamming in game voice.
Wow, it's so easy to use a mic on console, I never thought it would be an issue on PC. Kind of a bummer for PC players, but it sounds like there are several workarounds available, so that's good.
And there's never an issue with being forced to listen to anyone on mic (including 12 year olds lol) if you don't want to, since you can mute players or leave whatever chat channel you happen to be in. Or have your own private chat via party chat or guild chat channels.

Omg I got this one pal whose son talked the guy into using vent and he WON’T disc. He was the first max cp guy me and my pals met when we were REALLY noobs (like just reaching level 50).
He helped us out so much and is a true pal and got on disc once but insists we use ventrillo lol. I don’t use disc on my pc I use it on my iPhone and vents app is crappy and don’t work. Lol
Yes, this is an major issue for pug groups. Pug BG / cyrodil especially as you can discuss mechanic and strategy in an dungeon after an wipe without time constrain, if some ass jojo during this vote kick / leave.Wow, it's so easy to use a mic on console, I never thought it would be an issue on PC.

@JumpmanLane that's hilarious. I made up "weird group that wants you to join ventrillo" as a joke, I haven't actually known anyone to use that in ages.
Are you on PC, Xbox or PS4?
The answer is different for all 3 because consoles have voice chat built into the game (but how the mic is set up is different for each machine) and on PC there is no voice chat in-game so you have to use a 3rd party program like Discord or Teamspeak.
