I really do like the sound of this. And for a start it would help keep all the game chats clean from the horrible SPAM witch gets in the way on the forums and in the game. Witch is really annoying. So I agree with you nice idea .
It is an option on PC so I don't see it taking very long before it gets implemented on the Xbox. On PC you can segregate which chats you want to see into separate tabs. I wouldn't think this would be very hard to add to the Xbox version.
I'm actually surprised it wasn't in the game from the start. It was always going to be a mess in its current format.
It should simply function by whatever tab you're on, is what chat you see. If you're on trade tab, you see trade chat, if you're on guild tab, you see guild chat.. etc etc.
Oh, and it definitely needs a way to pause chat, so you can highlight someones name or an item they've linked to. Right now it's impossible.
You would think the chat filter they used....say 15 years ago in Everquest, would be feasible to implement. Makes you wonder if the devs ever tried to use the current setup. A simple menu of selecting the chats you want to see....I mean really......REALLY.....just sad the lack of effort on the most basic things. If things don't improve.....just wait until Elderscrolls come out and you have competition...people will be dropping you QUICK.
