Bring back bolded radio text

Post by Lostmixup » 15 Aug 2015, 16:50

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Simply put, instead of having a bunch of super sized text for a lot of the roles bring back the bolded smaller text for roles like the SL.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Will make it even easier to distinguish who's who in radio chatter (if done correctly), especially in the general radio channel and command radio channels.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Simply make the SL text bold and smaller instead of huge like all the command staff's text. This could also be done for things like the CMO and the CE to make them more distinguishable from normal radio chatter. This will make it so that radio chatter will not take up so much of the chat box and will allow people to tell the command staff apart from the lower ranking staff like the SL, CMO, and other such roles.

SL isn't that big of a command.

Might be doable, is this necessary with the recent changes?

+1 Eh.. maybe just tone down the size of the text a bit and then make it bold. The large letters do tend to fill up my chat box.

Neutral, leaning toward +1 as long as it's not as small as a normal grunt's, since that makes the SLs indistinguishable. Besides, I like muh big text - makes life easier.

Accepted, I'll work on this when I get the chance.
