Post by: Eiii on January 05, 2008, 07:03:00 PM
For the sake of all our eyes. I don't think I have to explain why.

If this is implemented, I think it should only apply to usernames and chat messages, so that server administrators could use it for their own more legitimate purposes.

This would be a client-side option.

No, it would only OPTIONALLY change how names would be displayed.

If that's referring to me, then I mean that the client-side option would only apply to names and player messages. :|

Well I made a edited file that removed the extra fonts, but not colours. Colours would have to be done in-game.. for me the fonts are the most annoying.

Actually, you can edit the image that sets the colors, too.  I thing somebody already did that somewhere on the forums.   Problem is, it disables ALL colors, not just the ones in names/chat text.

I'm pretty sure that was something that I had suggested before in a different thread.  I think that it wouldn't be so bad if you kept the standard red/blue/purple/yellow/white colours in, then "greyscaled" all the other colours.  Then the MM2 chat and splats would be left alone, and you'd only have a couple colours left in some people's names.
