Can't really trust anything you don't witness firsthand. But I am curious about the /echo thing, related to circumstances referenced here and just in general. It can be used to fake /tells and error messages, but can it be used to fake both at the same time? That is to say, if someone set the /echo font to a pink color to fake a /tell, and then set the /echo font to a red color to fake an error message of the /tell not being successfully delivered, would it turn all the /echo text in your chat box red, or would only messages posted in /echo after that be red? I'd test it myself, but I can't get in game at the moment.
I'm not in-game either, but I think when you change the color of a chat channel it applies it retroactively to your chat windows. However, someone really determined to be a turd could just take two screenshots with both colors used, and as long as their character hadn't moved, a quick minute in paint to copy and paste could make it look like different colors happened (and the backdrop behind the transparent chat window would line up perfectly since the character hadn't moved).
