+# MainCharacterTag
+
+![Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/version-1.1-blue) ![Interface](https://img.shields.io/badge/interface-1.12.1-yellow)
+
+A lightweight World of Warcraft addon for vanilla (1.12.1) that automatically tags your guild chat messages with your main character's name when playing on alts.
+
+## What it does
+
+When you chat in **Guild** or **Guild Officer** chat on an alt, your messages are automatically prefixed with your main's name so guildmates always know who they're talking to.
+
+**Example:** Playing on your alt `Shadowpoke` with main set to `Thunderbash`:
+> **(Thunderbash): Hey all, it's me just on my alt!**
+
+Messages sent from your main character are unaffected.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Download and unzip the addon
+2. Place the `MainCharacterTag` folder in:
+   ```
+   World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns/
+   ```
+3. Restart WoW or reload your UI (`/reload`)
+4. Enable **MainCharacterTag** on the character select screen
+
+## Usage
+
+Type `/mct` or `/mainchartag` to open the options window.
+
+Enter your main character's name and click **Save**. That's it.
+
+## Options
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `/mct` | Toggle the options window |
+| `/mainchartag` | Toggle the options window (alternate) |
+
+## Notes
+
+- Only affects **Guild** (`/g`) and **Guild Officer** (`/o`) chat
