: Folks,
: Lets get some opinions here. I'm thinking of allowing colors back into the channel on a very limited basis. The operative word here being "THINKING". I'd like to hear what the ya'll, the users think about it.
: My personal feeling is that if we allow colors, people will go overboard with the pop-ups that are several lines long with all kinds of pretty colors and start flooding out the channel. This is something I simply won't allow. We have to keep in mind that the java users only have a small screen to view the channel with and it's easy to overload their window so they get lost.

I agree with the others so far...I don't see any real need for them, and i think it will only confuse java users. Popups are ok if they aren't too long, but I think allowing coloured scripts will just end up being a free for all...who has the best popup, who has the best script blah blah...I think we can do without it. Personally, I think "if it's not broke, don't fix it". PT
