- If client developers cared enough about their users, they would gladly update their software to suit the users needs, and extra colours can only help chatting (providing there is a way to strip them too).

- Well my need is to chat, not draw ASCII pictures, therefore my needs are already fulfilled. How do more colours help chatting?

- They shouldn't... unless they want to keep the compatibility.
Saying he shouldn't add it because it will break compatibilty is silly, if you thought of everything that way then nothing would ever change!

- That's the most ridicuous thing I've ever heard. If I make a client and make a control code that makes my client play the Village People - YMCA should mIRC and every other client support the same for compatability? I've already pointed out a way that things could change and retain compatability, use the existing system's remaining 83 colours, it'd even have turquoise just for you. And notice that compatability isn't the only thing wrong with it, I keep listing several serious problems with 24-bit colour support.
