    Im not sure if it's possible to code such a thing? Unless you make the colour name a slottable item? Like your weapons etc are.

    How about if every in game account / character was assigned a unique account #number like they do on battle.net and discord and like it is on the forum, so that if someone wanted to report another player they can look up the number on the in game scoreboard and maybe even in the in game chat, lobby and fgunz.net individual player profile as well to make it consistent and then put that in the report thread, which would make it way easier for the GM's to identify the exact player. This would hopefully mean that there would be no confusion between twin characters and the colours in the names.

    That's like a solution to a problem that doesn't have to exist. :>
    It's a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you're ready.
    I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything.
    There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now.
    And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any.

    Would still be a good idea to have anyway right? Just for making reports easier and identifying twin accounts.

    Like

    Notorious > BUY VIP COLOUR BLUE > Notorious (now blue) however still original and can still be whispered as just /w Notorious
    It wouldn't have to change the colour code like you're thinking. The ZChat function accepts an optional parameter of colour. So if we'd like, we can just say

    Code:
    MCOLOR(0xFFE2EF7)
    and we'd get a Pink output without using a ^.

    Honestly, it's a good and creative idea, but I gotta go with no on this one. This game is already colorful enough. If we just keep splashing rainbows everywhere we're all going to get migraines playing this game lol.

    What I do like about this suggestion though is the # code, like Discord does, to distinguish between characters with similar appearing names (shoutout to Failure and FaiIure you twin fokrs).

    How about making it so just the text colour changes and the name stays the same
