    Feels like 5-6 sec tbh

    I'd like to propose a way of doing this that would be a lot easier, but also be good enough for what your asking:
    Keep a history of messages hidden in the client (e.g. up to 500 messages), and then allow the player to scroll the history up/down with hotkeys (should be defaulted to PGUP and PGDN). If new messages are received while you're viewing older ones, perhaps an alert should appear advising you to scroll down for new msgs, or if you haven't scrolled up/down for a while, it will eventually scroll down itself, if the user is already fully scrolled down when a new message is received, the client should scroll down automatically too. The coding behind this is extremely simple & doesn't require changes to the visuals of the chat (which I guess is good?).

    I'm not sure how you could go about resetting the history, I guess you'd have to reset it if player joins a new room/leaves a room etc. Though it'd be cool if you could leave a room, join a new room, and still look at the old messages
    It's good but, the problem with this (again) is modes like turbo and moments when you're in a room and many players start to talk, you can easily lose the msg you missed because kills/msgs don't stop sending. This is why I've suggested differents tabs for ppl can't miss these msgs.

    I don't think it'll be so helpful, as I said when you are in turbo or when many ppl send many msgs you'll lose the msg. Yeah, maybe can help sometimes, but not all the time.
    When you think you got over it, you realize you have not and the pain comes again.

    Might this will sound cliche, but you don't know what you have with you until you lose it. Appreciate everything you have, you don't know when you'll lose it. Friends, family, pets, anything. The time goes and never comes back, hold on to them like there's no a tomorrow, becouse when they're gone it might hit you hard. And if you do a mistake, be sure to correct it, or else you can lose everything in just one second in front your eyes.
