Chat & nicknames
How chat works on Sunday Market — messages, hover cards, system lines, clickable links, and custom nicknames.
Chat on Sunday Market is the social glue. Here's how it works today.
Chat today
- Player messages — your name and your text
- Hover a name in chat for a quick player card with more about them
- System messages — economy payouts, brewing results, deaths
- Links you paste are clickable, and you can drop the item you're holding straight into chat for others to hover and inspect
- Add color and a little formatting to your own lines with message tags
- Long messages wrap automatically
A chat exchange looks like this in-game:
Mothrahey, anyone want to brew?
Franki'm down — meet at the tavern
★ Frank caught a treasure chest while fishing.
Nicknames
Custom display names are live. Set one with /nick <name>, and switch back to your username any time with /nick off. Curious who's behind a nickname? /realname <nick> reveals the real account, and the hover card keeps everyone honest — your true username is always one glance away.
Staff-sounding names are off-limits — impersonating staff is against the rules (see Conduct). And a nickname is purely cosmetic: it doesn't come with a rank, a tier, or any extra power. There's one player group here and everyone belongs to it, so the name floating above your head is the only thing that changes.
Tab list
Pressing Tab (Java) shows who's online and their ping.
