Hello,

As you can all know, ccp has been using color as an identifier in the market place and other areas recently. I would like eve to use color or let users pick a color for our text in chat channels, only on the client side. Just to be clear, only the text you type on your end would be red or green or blue, it would only be to help you find any text you typed. The text would still be white to everyone else viewing the chat.
I strongly believe this would help new players more than anyone. I tend to visit the help channel and when 20 people are spamming questions it's very easy to lose sight of where your question is and how far up you have to go to find your answer, vs. everyone else's question.

Guys I really need your help to drive this idea home. So please post on this subject, with your support.

Again the color text would only be on the client end so that the person typing would see the color. This way it would not affect the current color system in place for Gm's and so forth.

Thank you,
Joshua
