I always forget when I'm muted and when I'm not :(
"I was wondering how I was able to describe so much of the room without you lot interrupting me..."
In my experience it's everyone else.
For real. No one uses mics or even the text chat in games anymore—and when they do–it's because they don't realize that their mic is on, so all you hear is chewing sounds, the keyboard clicking, or the shittiest hip hop in the world at max volume. (Seriously, why is it never good hip hop?)
I miss the days when everyone was playing Valve games and the voice chat would be absolutely alive with the funniest people on planet earth. I miss all the memes, good music, and funny sound clips. TF2 right after the Heavy update (and Left 4 Dead) came out was peak multiplayer gaming. It's been downhill since.
That's a great, novel use of the meme
Whenever anyone has been quiet for too long, I try to nudge them with "hey, if you've been speaking we can't hear you" - it's happened to me too many times already
When the DM does it we usually notice because he's normally quite talkative, as DMs tend to be. When a player does it we might not notice for five minutes...
