I think nide should make a feature so you can enable a second chat window on the right side. This would come in handy if you are checking a pm and you need to watch the Global chat.

Or you could just stay on Global and wait for the PM Red Flash.

But I'm saying if your lets say even in hawkeye most mods found it annoying to always have to switch back and forth to check chat while using hawkeye.

Is 5 seconds of your time that precious that you can't backlog?

But I know where you're coming from.

You should be able to do what people do with internet tabs: Drag them across the screen to wherever you see fit, and then just have multiple chat windows spamming up your screen so you can't see anything in front of you.
Bingo.

I really, really support this; when I'm mining or something, it's annoying to have to keep switching between chats to see if someone in my pms messaged me...

I think that maybe nide could implement a noise, when you get a private message, so if you taking to someone in global, you know when someones replied with out having to look.

I basically have the opposite of that. If I'm in PM and someone says nick or nickmcski in global a little ding goes off.

I have that too, but though IRC, if that is what you mean, but it would be nice just to get a noise when you receive a PM.

The idea would, logically, be very simple to implement, but...What would the noise be?
