    Please.

    My chat looks like a rainbow all the time. I am fine with donors using it but they know better than spamming.
    " Please come, and see my new and improved casino and shop now!!! " every 20 seconds.

    Thanks in advance.

    If you see someone spamming like that in the 3rd picture, you can always report the player. There’s a section on the forums specifically designed for that.
    But I have to no support this because it’s colors to get a you to notice them. You always have the option of lowering your pc brightness or game brightness if too many colors is annoying.

    On the BuyCraft page is stated that you get the color chat activated when you buy a rank so I don't know why they can use it in the first place either.

    As if only defaults spam in color like that. Im sure the defaults you're trying to target here are the so called "noobs" who actually most likely dont even know how to use color codes.

    If you do /warp donor it has a list of all the perks of each rank. I can't remember which one says colour codes enabled but yeah. I personally have noticed that most donors use smart choices of colour so it isn't extremely out there whereas the so-called greybeans use a different colour for each word which is painful to look at. Especially for a Skyknight (which doesn't exactly have many benefits) I think colour codes should only be for donors because otherwise for Skyknights it seems pointless
    So in short, support

    I actually support this. I believe it either needs to get removed from non ranked players or removed as a perk on the buycraft website as it is a bit misleading. :')

    The admins and devs have had so much time to remove this from non donors. I dont see a problem with letting them use colours at all. It is hard for new players to get any form of attention in the chat or even advertise their shops. Anything to help new players should be accepted.

    Hate to break it to everyone but I see more non colour spam then I see colours used in spam and donors aint innocent at all. Paying for a rank doesn't improve ones behaviour on the server.

    The chat is already a rainbow with coloured announcements, donors, skytitans with prefixes of all colours and you think that a bit of extra colour hurts?

    Its frustrating that any suggestion that involves colour is just because people don't want a colourful chat and its just selfish.

    The chat is fine the way it is and if it that much of a burden you can turn it off or ignore the players that use too much colour. Simple.

    No support, I don't think this would solve the issue. It would just bring back other types of spam like "{LOOK}" repeatedly, which is worse than a few colours.

    You have the option to ignore players if their content annoys you, I don't think it's fair to take this useful perk away from everyone in the non-donor rank just because a few people abuse it.

    I have started ignoring people now yes, but it should at least be removed from the BuyCraft page then.

    If anything, I would suggest reducing it only to a few colours, but then again, it is the only exposure 'grey players' get, so no support.
    But removing it off of the BuyCraft page, I support.

    No support because graybeans dont get the same attention as we donors do especially when they are trying to advertise their shops or casinos in a spammy chat. Them using colors makes them more noticable and advertising would be easier.
