Pre-CU as a Master Doc, I would colourize the word "tips" to simply buffline management. Now I colourize the word "spin" to signal in the combat spamwhen the tank has started his AoE attacks while grinding.

The SWG Forums. You will never find a more wretched hive of
catassery and buttmonkeyism. We must be cautious.

My best on is I have my name colorized to red so my name noticeably stands out in spatial and other places.

Hmmm..let see...

I colorize "you have entered" and "you have left" mssages orange
Badge notifications blue
Acheived enough XP to train a new box yellow
my name in purple
the words "kinetic" and "energy" in light yellow and light blue so they show up in combat spam better.

Getting good ideas for others from people here though.

Just need to figure out what color to make loot messages

I colorize "and hits for" so I can see the numbers that I hit and get hit with more easily in a big fight.

If I use the /sentence to colour my name red, would that make me a Dev? (aka Red Name..)

Nice links in your sig.

I like the one titled "Rule 3".

I normally have my name colored as I don't use chat bubbles much.

I would have added XP as TH stated, but he should know that they don't produce a system message anymore.

Well different toons, different markups but in general:

* toon name

* tips you (for the entertainer to keep track of the (non) bank tippers)

* hits you (who the .... dares to attack me, or attacks you, can't remember)

* qualified for (skillbox)

* maskscent (for scout/ranger running out)

* performs flourish (very unreadable color... don't want it because i know it when i perform a flourish, don't need a reminder)

* damage (to see damage numbers either received/given)

* item has been made (or something similar, to know when the item made is finished, freeing up the crafting tool)

Think that's about it.
