Request for Next Patch: Time Stamps on Chat?

I've lost track of the times where I've replied to a request for help with a world boss or forming a group in guild chat for a dungeon run only to find out the request was made 30 mins ago. When you are playing you lose track of chat sometimes, it happens.
I think it's something a lot of people would appreciate.

    Did they disable the chat log?

    That used to have timestamps but i haven't used that functionality for a long time so i don't even know if it is still in the game.

    Pchat is one of those add-ons that changes the world
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    I know they cut way back on the chat buffer.
    I used to be able to scroll back to check conversations a whole lot further than I can anymore.

    I'm not on my Main Battle Computer right now, but I think I use Wykkid's add-on.

    About pChat: Apparently, the addon is now abandoned, and other authors seem quite wary of "adopting" it. Which is understandable; pChat's a mammoth project. As it stands, though, any future game update could break it for good.

    Not at home right now so i can't test, does this still work? This used to have timestamps ...

    In game type: /chatlog
    It is a toggle. Log saved to:

    It does still work, and there are time stamps included. Doesn't exactly make up for not having them in-game, though...

    I use chatstamp add-on. It's old but all it does is add the timestamp to chat..12/24 hour and color.

    There is an addon which does that, it's awesome. It's called Pchat. But yes it would be nice if it was in the game, and not added by someone else.

    Link for addon.

    Has it already been mentioned above or is it a different one? I am looking at a couple based on recommendations.

    Console players would like time stamps option in-game since we can't use addons.

    Ok we have a winner! I found one that I like (no bells and whistles just a time stamp for chat)

    Thanks all for playing.

    Console request timestamps, we also request the ability to delete more than one mail at a time.

    @Aurrynthea_Drake if I may ask which add on did you choose? I also would consider one without other bells and whistles.

    I ended up using chatstamp because I just wanted timestamps and nothing else. So far so good. Working after new update.
