Unless I have missed something verbal component says:
Verbal (V): A verbal component is a spoken incantation. To provide a verbal component, you must be able to speak in a strong voice. A silence spell or a gag spoils the incantation (and thus the spell). A spellcaster who has been deafened has a 20% chance of spoiling any spell with a verbal component that he tries to cast.
To be able to and to actually do are very different things. I am able to jump up and down for 5 minutes, am I actually doing it, no. I am able to type with my nose, am I doing it, no."
Is there a faq that clarifies this?
I am not arguing that spellcasters can mumble, but the raw doesnt say that they HAVE TO speak clearly

This is my favorite rules question ever.
To be able to, and to cast a spell are also different things.
Project your voice, metamagic every spell with silent spell, get a metamagic wand of silence, or give up spell casting.
Whatever you're trying to do. NO
You must use the strong voice to cast a spell.
If you read to the end you would see that I know you have to speak in a clear voice to cast. I just want to clarify where it says I actually have to. Or perhaps point out an error for faqing or errata
I think it's an unspoken rule that never got written because no one had the gall to point it out. Well played.

That was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. I missed that rule when looking. Also glad you could point out the actual rule to me. Thank you
You are welcome. :)

It should take you right to it.
PS: I was not being snarky. I have run into posters here who did not know how to do this before. <---In before "everyone knows how to do that".
So, if a character has a pipsqueak voice, they aren't really qualified to be a caster, right?
I hope you realize I was joking.

Chess Pwn read it to the end. Everyone here did. I'll reiterate: Whateveryou're trying to do, no. Don't do that. Even if the other rule wasn't there, just don't do that.
Ok, no harm done. :)
There is also no reason for you guys to talk to me in such a condescending way.
I am not trying to do anything, and have made that clear. I do not appreciate people insinuating that I am trying to game the system by posting a simple question asking for someone to point out what I was missing on a rule.
That does not deserve people trying to tell me that I am gaming the system or deliberately misinterpreting rules. I know what the rule is, and was simply asking someone to point out where it was spelled out, which certain people have kindly done.
If I am misunderstanding anyone's tone, I apologize. Text based communication causes issues.

....Wov.
I know what the rule is, and was simply asking someone to point out where it was spelled outIf the rule is clear enough that you know what it intends then it doesn't NEED to be 'spelled out' even more clearly somewhere else.
The only reason I know what the rule intends is because of the time I have spent on this forum. I am trying to find a rule that says X exactly so I can show it to new players without having to show them pages and pages of forums
