    Hi,

    I recently thought of a cool donor perk for people who have access to chatting in colour, my idea was to add a command so when you chat, it automatically makes what you typed be that colour, without needing to put the colour code at the start.

    Commands:

    - /chatcolor <colour code> (sets the colour you want your chat to be)
    - /chatcolorreset (resets the colour to white)

    Let me know what you think below!

    I believe it's fine how it is. All we need to do is &(*) then say.

    I see your idea here, however you can just use & coding, which I think is simpler than typing /chatcolor.

    I played on a skyblock server that had a /chatcolor command, and it opened an in-game pop-up that allowed you to select the chat colour you want. It's already a plugin so would be easy to obtain for Cyp, because we all know he is so busy playing Overwatch.

    I like the idea.

    You would have to do &x everytime you wanted to talk, whereas /chatcolor is a one time thing, stays when you log out and back in.

    You don't need to keep typing /chatcolor, it saves the colour you want until you change it or reset it. It's just a small perk that could be useful if you want to type something without needing to put the & symbol at the start. Maybe you could also name the actual colour without the code itself when you perform the actual /chatcolor command, therefore helping people who don't know the codes off by heart.

    Rainbows not necessary and could be quite spammy, possibly could be a donor400 only perk for /chatcolor rainbow?

    If this was limited to Donor250 and up, I think it would be ok. Not really sure though as more and more higher ranked players players are coming in.
    (Note: I am NOT suggesting that because I am Donor250. [Heck, if I wanted to, I would've gotten Donor400.] I am suggesting that because Donor250 is basically the color rank. You get access to a colored nickname, colored prefix... It only makes sense.)

    Rainbows are way too spammy. Excessive colour spam can earn you a kick, so I think we'll leave that out.

    As for the actual idea, neutral for other ranks. Having it for a higher rank such as donor100-400 would be okay.

    I definitely agree with the rainbow part, I don't exactly get why it should only be for people 100+, why not just for the people who have access to chatting in colour?

    I support this, and agree it should be for higher roles, because if every donor is using it, it could get spammy.

    I agree with the higher ranks having access to multiple /chatcolour .

    Oh this is a really good idea. Not the /chatcolour rainbow though, may be too spammy and hurts my eyes.

    So upgrading your rank, paying more, removes perks? How about no
