Chesty McJubblies Gallente Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2010.11.12 15:41:00 - [32] Originally by: CCP Jericho It's not an exploit, but intended new feature. It's now possible for players to talk in colors in game. Enjoy~ Edit: This is a lie!!! CCP is already working on fixing it. Color text is an exploit. So it is an exploit, and it isn't an exploit. At least that clears it up. Suggestion: Remove the "new topic" button from everywhere apart from the list of topics section within a subforum. That'd save those with chronic hand/eye coordination some face.

IoWalker	Posted - 2010.11.12 17:24:00 - [36] communicating with anyone outside of corp chat or email is strictly for nubs.
BrundleMeth Caldari Temporal Mechanics	Posted - 2010.11.12 17:32:00 - [37] I discovered I could do it by accident by a clumsy typo....
bryanbc Gallente Abyssal Heavy Industries SRS.	Posted - 2010.11.12 20:56:00 - [38] ccp should get a patch out with no bugs for once then color text isnt going to hurt any thing
Lord Jita Lord Jita's Big Gay Corp	Posted - 2010.11.12 21:13:00 - [39] Originally by: bryanbc ccp should get a patch out with no bugs for once then color text isnt going to hurt any thing Because we might actually have fun with it, and they couldnt possibly allow that

Enjoy~ Edit: This is a lie!!! CCP is already working on fixing it. Color text is an exploit. I thought this had been fixed ages ago, as i was stupidly doing this in someones private channel(ages ago), and got banned for 3 days(ages ago), ah well i learnt my lesson from it anyways :)
Otocinclus Minmatar Project Nemesis	Posted - 2010.11.13 03:30:00 - [42] So whats this nonsense about colored text?
Yuki Kulotsuki	Posted - 2010.11.13 03:57:00 - [43] ccp is no fun Originally by: CCP Lemur THIS IS GOD: ... IF YOU HAVE ANY MORE REQUESTS I'M AVAILABLE SUNDAY FROM 10:30 TO 12:00 TO RECEIVE YOUR PRAYERS.

It's now possible for players to talk in colors in game. Enjoy~ Edit: This is a lie!!! CCP is already working on fixing it. Color text is an exploit. Slap me I made a mistake. Typing in colors is considered an exploit. Don't use it. Ahh I wish we could type in cool colors Why cant CCP staff just have little brackets AND colors? And on a similar note, can we has MOTD for corp chat Prospecting!
Ivana Twinkle GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation	Posted - 2010.11.13 11:59:00 - [45] Don't nerf "The Great Goon Buff". colour and size changes are awesome ---
Denalak Gallente M. Corp Mercenary Coalition	Posted - 2010.11.13 15:47:00 - [46] What about in personal channels? EG; Not local. That should be fine right?
Deldrac Bat Country Goonswarm Federation	Posted - 2010.11.13 19:40:00 - [47] Originally by: CCP Jericho It's not an exploit, but intended new feature. It's now possible for players to talk in colors in game. Enjoy~ Edit: This is a lie!!! CCP is already working on fixing it. Color text is an exploit. Don't worry man, its an easy mistake to make because WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS HOLY IS COLOURED TEXT AN EXPLOIT JESUS CHRIST!?
Max Cetera	Posted - 2010.11.13 20:05:00 - [48] Originally by: Deldrac Originally by: CCP Jericho It's not an exploit, but intended new feature.

Don't worry man, its an easy mistake to make because WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS HOLY IS COLOURED TEXT AN EXPLOIT JESUS CHRIST!? Because it's not an intented feature ? Which is quite obvious since you just can't type HTML in the chat and have it work.

coolzero Gallente	Posted - 2010.11.13 21:33:00 - [51] i cant understand why text having color being such a problem??? Jack of all trades, master of none...
Venkul Mul Gallente	Posted - 2010.11.13 21:37:00 - [52] Originally by: Denalak What about in personal channels? EG; Not local. That should be fine right? Personal chat + colored text so you can pass as a Dev/GM + people trying to fish for account informations Too easy to be used for frauds. Even if only 1 in 100 would fall for it it can be exploited and the we would get people trying to exploit it
Adunh Slavy	Posted - 2010.11.14 00:37:00 - [53] Originally by: Deldrac WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS HOLY IS COLOURED TEXT AN EXPLOIT JESUS CHRIST!? It's very anoying and coloured text usualy denotes something important, and often in local. The Real Space Initiative - V6 (Forum Link)
Tiberizzle	Posted - 2010.11.14 00:42:00 - [54] Edited by: Tiberizzle on 14/11/2010 00:42:22 Here's a crazy idea: 1. Leave colored text and other basic formatting capabilities that are apparently already implemented, and just disabled for players, in the game because they're pretty awesome. 2. Add a new type of formatting that players can't access for GM/ISD cheatbeating and ****waving.
Gandar Kimokanen Reikoku IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.11.15 10:33:00 - [55] Still stupid to threat with bans.. Not our problem that everyone suddenly can use colors
Aera Aiana Amarr	Posted - 2010.11.15 10:54:00 - [56] Originally by: KaarBaak I think the point is semantic. It's a "bug" not an "exploit." If it was a bug then using it would be the exploit. Apparently though, it is just another poorly implemented feature. - Don't let the trolls stop you from giving a helpful reply. :)
Atedar Kerane Silentium Mortalitas	Posted - 2010.11.15 11:09:00 - [57] Edited by: Atedar Kerane on 15/11/2010 11:09:40 Originally by: Gandar Kimokanen Not our problem that everyone suddenly can use colors True, as long as you don't exploit it, it's not your problem CCP Explorer and Jericho stated that it's an exploit, and as such, it will indeed be your problem if you keep doing it
Wacktopia Eternal-Viktoriuz-Evolution Focused Intentions	Posted - 2010.11.15 15:05:00 - [58] Edited by: Wacktopia on 15/11/2010 15:05:21 Oh what so rockets and blasters remain broken for years but users being able to talk in colours... HOLD THE PHONE we better fix that asap.
Muul Udonii Minmatar THORN Syndicate Controlled Chaos	Posted - 2010.11.15 15:07:00 - [59] Originally by: CCP Jericho It's not an exploit, but intended new feature. It's now possible for players to talk in colors in game. Enjoy~ Edit: This is a lie!!! CCP is already working on fixing it. Color text is an exploit. Make your mind up already! Exploit? Get real. I'm gonna use pink text till you fix it just because you're whining about it. I'll also use my toon called CCCP Jericho, and do all the other stuff that is possible with the game you made but clearly didn't test. Exactly what is exploitative about using coloured text?
Dr Fighter	Posted - 2010.11.15 15:09:00 - [60] Originally by: Wacktopia Edited by: Wacktopia on 15/11/2010 15:05:21 Oh what so rockets and blasters remain broken for years but users being able to talk in colours... HOLD THE PHONE we better fix that asap. yeah but no one accidentally tripped over a cable that made blasters suck, they evolved that way. coloured text in local has always been for ccp officals ONLY, now when its 'available' but not ready to be released for general use it was accidentally switched on, casusing such a stir.
