Chat Statstrings

Chat statstrings are space-delimited C strings that communicate attributes of a user in a chat channel. Most notably, game clients use chat statstrings to determine which icons to display for each user. Additionally, game clients will refuse to attempt to create ladder games if not enough normal game wins have been earned.

Chat statstrings are found in S > C [0x0A] SID_ENTERCHAT and in the TEXT field of S > C [0x0F] SID_CHATEVENT for the following chat event types:

Event ID	Name
0x01	EID_USERSHOW
0x02	EID_USERJOIN
0x03	EID_USERLEAVE
0x09	EID_USERUPDATE

Format

The chat statstring format for each product differs, however the first field is always the user's product in reverse (e.g. STAR becomes RATS).
