^That would do it. Thanks for explaining that.

Colors are honestly annoying to me and they hurt my eyes a little bit (it also makes chat hard to follow - trust me it does not do anything but hurt my ability to participate in chat) but so be it, I'm not online often enough for this to matter.

[Richard and Blaziken]

I use a darker color when there are many people in the chat to help distinguish who's talking (on the rare occurrence that I'm talking in chat). I agree with some colors being painful to look at, but I don't think colors are inherently bad on chat. Just don't use bright yellow, pink, or green in consideration of other people, imo.

for the life of me, dont use white

Isn't there a setting in most IRC clients that lets you strip colour from messages on the client-side anyway? Shouldn't be a problem if you do that, no?

I can't check in mIRC because it wants me to register so I've switched to Hexchat and there's definitely an option for it on here.

I use dark blue or red if I choose a color. I'm also annoyed by bright ones, and don't get me started on white......

I should be on soon everyone.

I agree with you =P I also find the darker colours hard to read because my irc client has a black background.

[Lord Raven]

Yeah mine is dark too.  In all honesty, *many* people want it so the simple solution is for us to adapt and adjust.  I apologize that I sound like a broken record but clients really help with this sort of thing so you can make certain necessary adjustments.

[SirBlaziken]

I'm fine without using colors if that's what's needed.

[Lord Raven]

Nah we'll keep colors.  Has chat fizzled out a little bit?  I sure as hell hope it hasn't.

[Kerou 犠牲]

Nope, we regularly get a good number in and there's plenty of conversation going usually. It's very refreshing.

[Wolstenholme]

Eek, I've sort of stopped coming online because of sixth form - I've usually got work to do and I'll work right up to ten with the internet in the background but I usually don't go on chat so it won't distract me... Sorry guys *sheepish smile*

[the bread dragon]
