new context menu in the log window

I find it clunky and awkward. I'd love an option to disable it, as using up arrow to actually move the log was convenient when something had just scrolled out. Unless you type 20 wpm or use a controller, the menu will be slower than just typing your tell.

It still does that. This affects nothing if you dont want to use it. You can also still scroll up/down a page at a tme with left and right, so it doesn't really impact your ability to scroll.

There always has to be someone who doesn't like a perfectly fine feature.

Don't get me wrong, I love that they're trying to improve our UI, but, this feature I find rather meh.

Don't get me wrong either, it's not like it's something I'm drooling over or something, it's just a nice little improvement. If they took it a little further it would be even better.

it would be especially useful if, as described, it could be used for the blaclist/friendlist.

Flaunting opinion as fact must be the new in thing. Previously, with the log open, hitting the up arrow would scroll your log up by one line at a time, or hold it for a few lines. Now, it navigates the selection for targeting someone. Whether you find it useful or not, it was changed, and providing a simple option of /logtarget on/off would be ideal for everyone.

FWIW, I don't really find that much use in it as it is. Can type out anything I'd like to do far faster, though I have used it to target someone out of a group a few times. Allowing you to target enemies would add a large degree of use to it IMO, nothing like seeing a mob casting in a group that you want to silence, then spending a number of seconds tabbing through til you find the right one. I'd imagine with a few tweaks to it and the ability to macro in simple message macros that add to an open chat, it'd be great for game pad users too.
