i remember a day when another dm and i along with 2 other players walked into the old LA gaggle of voice chatters and dominated 12 of them. we didn't voice chat. we type chatted our strategy. the basics are simple if you know how to play and how to communicate efficiently you don't need voice against 5-15 players....the action will never move fast enough to demand it.
all that being said we've told the players before, dual/triple logging is an all or nothing deal. we CAN lock all players from multi boxing, but that means everyone...there would be no roomates playing from any other house ever.
well for me voice comm isnt about stradegy or tactics, its about not sitting at a comp completely silent playing video games in a dark dank basement somewhere, i wouldnt play this game, as it would be insanely boring, if it wasnt for voice comm, most of the time i just get on to chat with the friends ive made here, i dont really seem to actually do anything ingame anymore unless theres some pvp going i can jump in on. i honestly dont see how this game can be enjoyable without being able to talk to someone while playing. i highly recommend the ts server cely set up for us!
on another note....
i do enjoy reading the whining on the forums though

if the games making you that stressed ya gotta post garbage all the time, then take a break - do something else for a while, then come back and play for fun, dont take it so seriously, worked for me
