For a while now I’ve had some trouble following chats that are lengthy and/or have a lot of people posting, and I could never quite place why. A friend finally mentioned something that made it click.

In some games with chat systems, once a person says something that’s long enough to go over into a second line, the second line and beyond are indented just a little to better show that all that block of text belongs to that one person.

I think GW2 chat could benefit from a subtle indent for the second line and beyond. I know it would make it a lot easier for me to read. Also, the fact that emotes are gray does put a bit of a strain on my eyes when I see it all over the place (as a roleplayer, I spend quite a bit of time reading through emotes); I would love to see the ability to customize colors for the different chat channels.

I completely agree with this suggestion. I think it’d be a great change to the chat system and would make it easier for a number of people to read what’s there with the minimal amount of fuss.
