Resolved Issues / LoE Chat Box Idea
2015 Aug 17, 00:26:14
So, I just had a blast playing the game (yet again), particularly with all the witty things you lovely people throw down with such ease. :)

However, even during the more low-key times of the OSWs, let alone the mad frothing of the mouthing and unnecessary spamming (yikes, ponies), I wondered if the text in the chat box might be altered to help one better differentiate one player's message from the other.  Say, for instance, instead of every single word being all white, making your eyes swim from the fast pace flood of input, how about we color in the names of the tell submitters to be that of the same color their pony's main body own?

You may wonder if the person's entire message should be colored the same way, but I think just the name of the player being colored would be sufficient, and it wouldn't run the risk of appearing like a admin/moderator's message, should a player happen to match the distinct pinkish color they use.

It might help. Or it might not.

Also, I understand how exciting it is to get your thoughts out there, as quickly as they might come, but something that might help ease up on the spamming is if there's a short five or ten second limit to when you have to wait in order to speak again, similar to chatting in World of Warcraft.

Anyway, that's just some food for thought. I very much appreciate you guys and all that you do and bring to my life, both staff and community pones, and I hope you have a good day.

 :s This has probably already been speculated upon, but what do you think would the cutie marks for the individual Cutie Mark Crusaders would be? What exactly are they destined to do, or what talent they excel the most at?

ono Sweetie Belle certainly seems to have something singing related. Scootaloo, something to do with a scooter (which is good for what? Some extreme sport?), but she's also just generally good and manheuvering herself in such a way that she could turn out to be some great dancer, maybe. And Apple Bloom...something to do with landscaping/contracting? You know, 'cause she fixed up the clubhouse and what not.

  0:) Anyway, just wondering what other theories there might be as to what their marks would be/look like. Or maybe what you'd like for the characters to turn out becoming.
