    Default Chat bubbles ?

    I can't seem to find a chat bubble option in game... It would be very helpful not to have to stare at a textbox during groups and raids... does it exist ?

    Hello, hope all is well. And if it isn't, sorry about that.

    I can certainly understand why someone wouldn't want that screen clutter for themselves, but why do you not want Magnifique too have the option?

    I like this idea. General chat is broken and nobody uses it ever. Make this a toggle-able option, and I think it would be pretty neat.

    Why? The same people that ignore General Chat would turn this off as well, and then you would be able to say that speech bubbles were broken. In quests/raids, I don't want speech bubbles getting in the way of the screen either. If it existed already, I wouldn't care, but I don't see any real benefit to spending development time on this.

    I agree with Freeman ... it would just add to clutter the screen and it even would lead to issues

    ... how you ensure that bubbles of two players that stand close to each other, both can be read? Will one overlap the other?
    What if once again someone stumble on his keyboard and you see a big bulb of "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzaaaaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwww wzzzzzz&*@#!" next to other bulbs with "lol", "hi", "PST for trading a bound item", "heaallzzz!", "invite plz" make it more visible in a bulb then in a chat and how this should be anywhere helpful if you afterwards anyway have to re-read in the chat who said what where?

    This is not some sort of comic game ... so while this is not in the suggestion forum, still ... sorry please NO!
    * We have collectable bags, mind you, even hireling folders, but can I have that 6-pack for my potions please?
    * Having already a past life on the dieng EU servers, I rerolled here and started from scratch as I like the game and the community, so lets see what awaits me here
