Party chat should be like village chat in chat window

Post by Dataslycer »

Many times when I party a good amount of people, someone always gets shafted with having a seizure or blindness inducing color. At one point, we had someone with a chat color almost exactly the same hue as the chat background! So please change this. Think of the children's eyes!
If you keep focusing on the shadow behind, you will not see the light in front of you.

Being successful isn't just about hard work and succeeding, it is also about picking yourself up when you fail.

What do you mean, "at one point"? It's a pretty common occurance in party chat in my experience. ;)

In the interest of my eyes, please make party colors bearable. I know that ??? is a bigger problem for parties than villages, but either the colors need to change. If nothing else, just number the anonymous ones or something.

Just give the unique color to the name. The rest of the text should be like village chat.

Yeah, I think light beige needs to be taken out of the party colour list, to say the least. Or make it so rejoining the party randomizes your colour.

I like the colour thing, but it's kinda hilarious/annoying with the current selection.
