Ways to bring back the /me function in pre-game chat

Like many others, I only recently learned about the /me mechanic. I understand why it was disabled, but really enjoyed the italic style while it was active. I think with some more advertising and possible adding that colon after the user's name, we could bring back this feature without any problems. Some might disagree with the colon, but I just miss the italic font.

I think lack of knowledge of this feature was the biggest killer. Just in the past week or so when I learned of it people would freak out and ask why everything I was typing was in italics (I didn't try to troll, just typed normal responses with /me). I think there were only like 2-3 games where people responded in italics immediately instead of questioning how I did it.

Tl;dr A colon and more awareness of the /me feature could possibly bring it back without any problems, while allowing us to type in fun italic font.

Yeah, it's a nice feature. I gotten into the habit of doing "/me wishes everyone good luck." Personally, more chat commands makes things nice as it encourage taking. Its a team game and not a 1 man army, so things to promote communication is better to have imho.
