Disney does not have a policy against USING VoIP programs such as TeamSpeak, XFire, or Ventrillo.

Disney does, however, have a policy against TALKING about above programs (with the POTCO chat medium) in regards to sharing usernames, server info, etc.

Again, Disney does not have a problem with players using it. They cannot control your use of it nor can they track it. They do have a problem with players chatting in their game about it when the discussion could lead to exposing another player's personal information and possibly creating a liability for Disney themselves.

Thank you, and the thread is all yours again.
To clarify one other item. Just saying Team Speak, XFire, Ventrilo, or even YIM, AIM, or Google chat in game chat CAN get you a suspension of 1 to 3 days. It all depends on if a Disney chat reviewer a) sees it, and b) is in a bad mood.

I know one person who got 3 day suspension for just saying Ventrilo, and I personally got a 3 day once for trying to help someone get Vent working, by telling them to go to YIM to talk to me. I didn't give out personal info, I just told them to go to Yahoo Instant Messenger. The nice little message I got from Disney when they told me I was suspended included a single line of chat, the one telling someone to go to YIM so I could talk to them.
