Title: Colourful Chat System
Post by: Ellemenopeanuts on September 04, 2013, 03:57:47 PM

For example

General that would look like this:

[G][Member] Hello

Names could be the colour of Rank, so it's easier to see at a glance.

[A][Migas]
[M][ReAndrew]
[SA][JacieJ]
[M][Asbestospants]

So you end up with something like this

[MSG][Senior member] Hello

Also, you could get all fancy and the colour you're typing in could change depending on the channel box you're typing into.

I would honestly love to do this. But I have never found a bukkit plugin that would allow for it.
The WOW chat system was great though. I have looked for Tabbed chat, or boxes or anything like that. It seems like bukkit just does not have the ability to do that kind of thing.

I can probably change the color of peoples chat though. maybe for just Moderators and Admins, So they can be seen over everyone else.

Seems a pretty good idea. I suggest adding "Rich smells bad" to the end of every /msg.

Yeah but tabby chat is a mod for the client, not a bukkit plugin. Although I wish it was

I think the way Spout is configured allows that.  but I am not sure.
