What does your V.I.T.H. sound like? - Operation Sports Forums

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you all know OS now has an official Discord that you can join right now. We’ve kicked around Discords for individual games in the past, but it felt like the right time to make it more of an official thing.

Steve and I have wanted to get this going for a bit because we obviously still hear from y’all who are unhappy with some stuff on the forums, plus when there are forum outages we still want to have a place for everyone to hang. My overarching goal for the longer term is to have both Discord and the forums ultimately work together. There are some logistical issues with the vBulletin forums that don’t allow things to sync right with Discord so there will be a little maneuvering as we try to get mods and forum members any proper roles/tags they need on the Discord, but we can work through that stuff easily enough as people join.

Our general goal is to give people more options to interact with OS community members, whether that’s Discord, the forums, this newsletter, or improved apps. If people want to stick more to the forums, that’s cool. If people want to stick more to the Discord, that’s also cool. In my perfect world, we do a lot of BSing and day-to-day chatting on the Discord about games and sports, and then more of the “in-depth” discussions or hefty things like long slider breakdowns or analysis of gameplay end up on the forums so that can act as a sort of “best of” area for anything OS community related. That said, you all will ultimately shape how the ecosystem shakes out, I just want to give you spaces you like so you can have a good time with other folks in the community.

The same general rules will apply on the Discord as they do on the forums, and we’ve brought most of the forum categories to the Discord as well so there should not be too much confusion as you navigate around.

With the Operation Sports and Discord announcement now out there, it’s also worth mentioning our OS premium newsletter, which quietly launched a couple of weeks ago. Built off the Not Just Another Roster Update newsletter, it offers a mix of retrospectives, guides, interviews and deeper dives into the sports gaming world—covering both current and classic titles.

Everyone keeps remarking how their voice sounds different when they hear it on a recording than when they are actually talking and there is a good reason for that. When you talk, you not only hear the sound of your voice that has carried through the air and been picked up throug the out ear, but also the sound (or more precisely the vibrations created by the movement of your vocal cords) travel through the bones of your jaw and skull (called bone conduction) and these vibrations can be picked up by the hair cells within the cochlea and converted to electrical signals which are transmitted to the brain. Whereas when listeing to a recording, you are only picking up sound waves through your ears without any of the internal bone conduction.

Yeah, yeah, go ahead and say it, I'm a nerd.

That was damn interesting.. I always knew there must be a reason thank you sir!

Back to the topic.

My V.I.T.H doesn't really have a sound, it's sort of weird, kind of like a whisper of my voice but without the whispery part if that makes sense... like hearing thoughts rather than hearing words.... ahhhhh so hard to explain!!!

What a great thought to post about.

the ****? You're a nerd. :wink:

Nah, that's pretty interesting and I've always wondered why I sound different on recordings or over the phone etc. I remember when I was younger I'd call my house phone from another phone and leave a voice mail. I'd then go listen to the voice mail to see what I sound like. Always wondered why I sounded different. lol.

Do you read everything out loud?

"It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

No.

However, do you make sounds when you think? Can you hear your thoughts, is their noise to them in your head?

On the other hand, has anyone ever had a voice in their head that didn't sound like them? That'd be...weird, wouldn't it?

I don't know, this whole thread is just weird.

Very cool thread. Not one of the usual OS ones.

Now we just need to counter-balance this with the 2010 Babes Showdown.

My "Voice In The Head" just sounds like my voice. I do make characters in a book/document voice's sound diffrent so I can understand the story or whatever im reading better.

Re: What does your V.I.T.H. sound like?

My VITH doesn't sound like my voice.

I'm in broadcasting, so I've heard my voice 1000 times, and it's definitely not what I thought I sounded like. I thought I had a deeper voice because the one in my head is the perfect broadcasting voice.

Guys that are confused about the question and claim the voice they think with is the same they speak with, I suggest you record your voice in decent quality and listen to it. Is it exactly what you thought it would sound like? If it's not, then you VITH is certainly different.

I get it, but it's not what he's asking.

Re: What does your V.I.T.H. sound like?

Mine sounds alot like Robert DeNiro or Al Pacino which makes absolutely no sense. I'm from North Carolina and have a southern accent. I think my "Inside Voice" has been skewed by having watched too many movies, lol.
