Colored Font

Vega Magnus · 04-06-2011

I post in bolded tomato font on every forum I use. I noticed in the rules that colored font is generally frowned upon, but not necessarily against the rules. Thus, I was curious if my colored font is okay or not.

Moderators are allowed to edit it back to black at their own discretion, or remove the entire post.

We've had members that typed all of their comments in an specific color, usually 'readable' ones such as dark blue, grey or dark green.. yellow, red, pink, orange are harder for the eyes though, it's difficult for moderators to scan a post like that and obviously for members participating in a discussion, too. Plus it encourages other people to use fonts like these~!, which somewhat downgrades the aspect of the forum.

So it's probably better to not use colored fonts? Okay. Thanks.
