Default The "CHAT".

Looked around, haven't seen anything on it yet on the forums but yeah, have some issues with it, as I'm sure others do.

While I know it's still beta, would like to list hates and what not. Also I'm sure you'll of heard these complaints enough but feedback on what's going on would be nice =) :

Obvious first gripe is color. While it's cool having those options for the 3 shades, I suggest AT LEAST having a preview of it and obviously being able to edit it.

Options to have it scrolling across the screen or not. Another "duh" but dear god please make that optional.

IGNORE IGNORE IGNORE! Whether it be a person or just the whole chat. Or 'shouts'. More options!

Maybe two windows, one for chat and one for exp/level ups. Or an interface you can access to see exp/level ups or something. Some sort of 'history' would be nice.

I haven't grouped or have sent a tell to anyone yet so if anyone wants to add on that, good or bad, please do.

Anyways, just constructive criticism and would like to see how this will evolve =) . If I missed clicking an option somewhere that stops some of my gripes please do tell.

well what your saying is interesting i would mind seeing a sepaerate history from the chat as it can be annoying at times when many talk in chat

as for groups there you can send messages by typing /g message and then only group members can read it

and another thing about chat is that there should be a way to change text color so that those that have gotten an hard to read color can get a change to change it so its more readable

that my opnions and input on it

the colour of your text is displayed before you start the game in the initial char set-up. poeple should have been paying attention to the colours they picked.

Chat won't be modified until after tradeskills are complete but some notes:

There will be a way to modify your color in game, however, you'll probably be limited to the amount of times you can do it or it will cost gold.

After we begin our advertising campaign and we have a decent number of people playing shout will be changed from global to zone based. IE everyone on the docks will hear shouts from others on the docks, or if you're in a town you'll just hear people in that town. So in other words there will be a lot less shouting.

Toggling scrolling text for shouts/pm's will be an option later.

You can currently ignore single players by right clicking them and clicking toggle. You can view your ignore list by typing /ignore and can unignore them by typing /ignore followed by their name if they're on your list.
