Apparently a ton of people have been missing a lot of guild chat because WildStar has terrible defaults.
To give the chat box a permanent background and make chat actually readable, go to Options > Chat and turn Mouseoff Fade off. Set the opacity to your desired level of invisibleness and enjoy being able to read things regardless of what the ground looks like!

Default chat in this game is so awful. Good shout.
There's font size options... but they don't seem to actually change anything. I don't know how it made it through all the testing and tweaks but I hate that we can't actually adjust the font or chat window size.
There's also an addon that changes the font to something more readable.
Does the game keep dropping anyone else's custom chat tabs? I keep setting up a dedicated guild tab but it seems to disappear every so often between logins.
I created a guild tab once and it went pretty quick - more or less gave up
Supposedly they fixed this in the latest patch.Quote:

I made a tab just for guild chat, party, and IMs.
