Idea for improvement in the chat window

[Ace]

Hey there!

I just had an idea about making the chatting a bit easier. However I guess it has to do with the client, and not the server?

Wouldn't it be nice if the user would be able to set a "default" channel?
Here is what i think would be useful:

<text> == sends it to everyone (like now)
<beginning party- or playername>: == sends it to party or player (like now)

::<text> == sets the default to everyone
<beginning party- or playername>:: == sends it to party or player like now and all following text not beginning with !: or : will be sent to this group

It's a good idea that you should be able to control the default place your chat is set. We'll be looking at overhauling the client in the next major release milestone.
