First you'll need a mic + speaker or a headset then go to ventrilo (http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php) and download the client program for ventrilo then install it.

blackhatworld's ventrilo server is made up of a few "rooms". Ive highlighted them in green.

To move into a room, just double click on the rooms name.( hint: the highlighted bit)

See how next to my name theres a green speaker. That means i'm pressing my hotkey and im talking. Red means you're not talking.

Now if you look down, you can see that LoboRsxS has a yellow speaker. This means hes talking but we can't hear him. Theres a number of reason for this, either he's in another room or he is private chatting with someone else.

On the right hand side you should see comment (1) and chat(2)
With comment(1), you can post up a little tag/sig next to your name ( TonLilaz has a :D as her comment)

With Chat(2), you can chat with everyone on vent that is in chat.
