Abrasiveness/Conversation

[Zergling]

It's always a bit of a worry I have when communicating (whether phone, internet, ventrilo, etc.), that things I say are coming off in a more abrasive way than they need to be. the other people around don't seem to get annoyed most of the time, bit it is always a bit of a worry.

Conversations in general seem to have awkwardness added for me in similar ways. I'm always a bit worried whether the "filler (o.k., right, sure, etc.), is coming across well or if it just gets annoying.

(Not much else to say on this, it has just been inspired by ventrilo conversations over the past couple of days.)

I don't think it's a big deal to anybody you're talking to. You seemed pretty normal to me, and you talked more than anybody else. (Except for me, of course.)

You're fine. You even exhibited a sense of humor when I jokingly asked if everyone was using their "real" voices.

I on the other hand hate hearing the sound of my own voice.
