    Tilde ~ vs ˜

    Hello, I wasn't really sure where to place this on the forums, as this is more of a request rather than a bug. It's around how the tilde (˜ vs ~) is rendered in the chat log. None of the templates for reporting a in-game bug really fit this, however if a one is required please let me know and I'll supply additional information. Or if this should be moved to a different section please let me know as well.

    Currently, when you use the tilde is renders in the chat log as this: ˜

    My request is to have it rendered this way: ~

    Why you might ask? Well it really comes down to personal preference and the untraditional way it's used in chat log to create various textual emoticons/smilies.

    For example, if you want to do a winking face people either do this ;) or ^_~

    However, since tilde symbol renders like this ˜ the second option for a winking emoticon doesn't really look right. ^_˜

    This isn't by any means a high priority as actual bugs should trump requests like this, but more of a "nice to have".

    For folks who aren't familiar with the tilde check out wikipedia for more information:

    I'd rather they work on making the digits 5, 6, and 8 more distinguishable.

    Hello! Thanks for expressing your desires for the game. As this technically isn't a bug report, I'll have to lock down this thread. However, if you were to post about this over Here, it would be much more likely to be addressed. Please consider making a post there. Thanks again for your report!
