i use /r alot couse its very easy to use
untill...some other guy pms you, meanwhile your typing and totaly messes everything up  

is it possible for /r to send it to the last player that pmed you, before you started typing?
that like as soon you type /r or press t it records the last player that pmed you
and the message sended will go to that person, instead of the random guy that pms you while you are typing it

i guess there is a good reason for it, that its not working this way? or would it be possible?

I don't think that's possible. Since you haven't actually told the server you're doing anything, until you hit enter.
Try avoiding this by looking at the chat before you send your message.

I can just picture you kidding around with someone and typing in "/r Your an absolute jackass", then right before you hit enter Opti sends you "Hi" in a PM.  The next 20 minutes are spent on your knees begging not to get banned...  *LMAO*

Instead of using /r, I just type /msg playername, then no message, that way all chats go to that person, then while chatting, If someone else pms me I can use /r to reply to them

This is correct. There is no way for the server to know when you have begun typing until you hit enter.

ah ok already considered that, was worth a try 

It's a nuisance, I know, but it happens.

The only things that show you who or what is typing out messages in real-time are IRC clients and Instant Messaging. If there was a way to implement that into the Minecraft game clients, that'd be super. I highly doubt that it would still decipher who or what you're gonna send your messages to.

Even then, I doubt something like that will ever be implemented into the game client. Best not to hold your breath for too long.
