(News taken from main site) We are currently preparing the next release, which will include some exciting new features! And we need your help for one of the exciting additions: NPC voices! The NPCs will greet and converse with you using real voices, and ...[drums roll]... we would like to have your voices to help with the greetings. Make a sample recording of your voice and if the result is good enough, then we will add it in game to one of the current NPCs! If you want to learn how to record your voice to be used in PlaneShift, read this page

Oh my lordy. This could be time and space consuming  I'd love to lend my voice, though. I'll see if I can get a decent recording.

I'm a little confused as to what is meant by "American" accents. I have a Maine accent which is not anything like a Midwestern accent.

Please point out where it says "American accents" because I am not seeing it. I do agree though; "American" accent would refer to Midwestern accent because it's generally considered accent-neutral (although we do have people with rural accents here too).

I wonder if a little foreign accent is possibly even welcome for one or another NPC... as long as people try to pronounce it clearly and rather close to BE. Ah...  - That was already mentioned. Okay. Which merchant might deserve a saxonian accent?

We have an accent to race list, it has to be agreed to by the team first.
Accents will be welcome I mean.

Not knowing much about sound, and after reading the how-to, I have a few questions. One is: Isn't the background noise from the PCs themselves a problem ? Shouldn't one use a mike with a long cable to stay away from the roaring fans, in the next room, or something ?
(I don't have a mike yet, so I'd rather take some info before acquiring one, which by default would be the cheapest if it's good enough).
