I think, that new colors in IRC aren`t good. Anyone with support now can change web-name to name of other account name(name of moderator, for example) and write in chat. And it will not be visible at a glance, how you can see it today(in #russian)!I think, it provokes people to such actions.
I think you need to restore the old color of the chat or come up with another system of colors in chat.

Sorry for bad english, and thanks for considering this request!

This was always possible. Most people never discerned colours before. It is a bannable offense and shouldn't be a huge issue. Just !report it if you see it.

Well, peppy, is it allowed then to ask why the colors changed? This grey of normal users just looks so... "bleak" D: ... the orange wasn't maybe the best but this new colors look just... well maybe boring too ._.

I may make further changes to the colours, based on feedback. We shall see.

I kinda dislike the new chat colors
It is a bit lifeless to be in a chat with people without a supporter tag ... everything is so gray and private chats ... well i have nothing against pink but is is not as contrastful [like blue] anymore :/

I already wrote that in the update thread but i post it again for an easier compilation

Nothing will change with IRC users, but I will consider further PM changes.

The chat colors... I especially dislike the color of PMs. Pink? This is more grey than anything else. The contrast of blue to white was just more pleasant to look at. And there is only a little difference between you white and the grey of non-supporters. Things oneself said don't stand out enough imo.

Well I agree with Tshemmp... the colors right now are:

but well... the difference between "light-gray" and "gray"... are that minor that it's kind of not visible and well... this gray as I said above... is a bit lifeless and as I heard of a lot ppl, they dislike this gray too but well, waiting for the future^^

They aren't supposed to be discernible. That FAQ is horrible and confusing.

A chat full of grey and white text gets kinda confusing to read. And it's hard to find the lines that you yourself wrote in chat.

That's more than true.
Even if other non-supporter are 8% more grey than yourself, it's confusing.
