I'm not a big fan of colors, ever. First, I've come to prefer certain systems that don't support ANSI well, and that's obviously going to kill your desire for color. But, also, even when I'm using something that does, I tend to simply kill all the color, which can irritate my eyes even in small doses and can hurt the ambience (imho), and use client hiliting to get things done, if I need hilites at all.
Then again, part of it probably is that I'm a die-hard roleplayer, who tends to play muds with little or no combat, and the need to differentiate between spammy combat messages is less common, and often channels don't exist, or only one or two exist.
My two cents, I realize that this is a far cry from the opinion of the general community these days.
