so, as is often mentioned in these threads, RP is the main goal of them adding chat bubbles. I mean, thats fine if seeing words in a white bubble is more "immersive" for your RP experience thats fine, everyone;s mileage varies.

honest question though to the RP crowd asking for these....

SE hasnt been exactly what I would call "supportive" of RP'ers, if you do not recall, there were bans earlier in the year for advertising RP events, (while the RMT people advertised their hearts out and nothing happened to them)

somehow, I do not see this idea for chat bubbles leaving the ground, regardless if its under the players control. not worth the development investment.
