boy that's weird, if you turn it all the way up it becomes very, very, large and takes up most of your screen. How large do you want the text? You might have to get creative

Large enough to read. The chat box itself takes up about 1/9 of my screen, and I estimate the text size to be around 8 pt. My monitor has ~91 ppi

Well I have the chat window open as big as it goes, but I'm talking about the text in the window.

yeah, and you're doing something wrong if it's only at 8pt size. Mine is mid 20s and I didn't do anything special enough to even register that I should remember where to look for text size..

It's not me doing something wrong, it's the default size
