Chat system changes

With all the different events going on, the list of what's considered 'system' chat has gotten a bit bloated. It's hard to follow anything in there.

How about you make a separate chat type for 'Announcements' or 'Random BS' like tobl, bidding hall, events, etc in there, and leave system for actual important system and GM chats.

You could even use the window that Horns currently tie into for this new chat type, that way they keep separate and don't spam up the regular chat window.

Along that line, Horn chat should ONLY be in that one window, and not in both. Additionally, it should be made to where it remembers its position between sessions like most of the other windows do. Nothing I hate more than the first horn after I start playing covering up my character panel or the top of my squad list.

    Yeah that would be better, separate chat for whispers too hehe, and also enable voice chat on squad because it is really hard to type to give instructions to newbies inside TT,FC or other places. :)

    Separating the system chat and normal chat is something they really do need to do, and should have done ages ago. It just hasn't happened yet because china doesn't have packs, so they don't get red chat spam. Horns too, nothing like someone imitating your faction or squad chat color and confusing people in the heat of battle.

    There's a whisper tab, you know. Also, I don't think pwi could support in-game voice chat, that's what ventrillo is for.
