Guest and Member Chat

Drowse

I am not sure if this has already been suggested, but a few of us in mumble were discussing how it would be nice to have a different colour for guest and member so that our new guests stand out more if they need help :)

/Cheers Drowse :)

Wait, are you talking about in-game or for mumble?
(sorry for the confusion)
But if your talking about in-game: there already is white to indicate guests and grey to indicate members.
If your talking about mumble: I'm no expert when it comes to mumble but I know that the 'vanilla' mumble server does not allow coloured names (but correct me if I'm wrong) But maybe there are plugin type feature to allow new people to have a white name, if that's what you mean? :S

No sorry I ment game chat, and yes guest is white and member is grey but imo they are very close in color with the chat and can get lost :) a nice bright orange or green would be a great color for guest ;)

Bright orange already represents a recruit, green already represents builders.  Leave things the way they are.

Drowse is talking about SMP, not Classic. ;)

I currently don't see a big problem with the colors of player names. The white and gray are easily distinguishable.

It's also what we use on the Classic server.

They are perfect the way they are, it wont change
