Slime,

While you are on here, I'd like to alert you to a possible sighting of a spelling error in the PHA section of the forum, please make your way over there immediately and correct the heathen responsible for such an atrocity.

I've only realised one person using colour, and i'm not 12 or mental so it doesnt bother one bit.

Amazingly, I was just experimenting with changing the size of the text so that I don't have to squint to read it. Yours was the first thread I opened, only to be confronted by inch high, bright yellow letters with a red border, I wondered wtf I had done.

That aside, I have no problem with coloured text. Vive la difference!

First of all: woah, please hold your horses (Norse or otherwise).  I am not judging anyone's personality or character here.  Remember I am not commenting on the content of anyone's posts.  But, on a page with, say, a dozen replies, one post that is a different colour from the rest will naturally stand out.  I am wondering why any person would want to make their post stand out.  My personal view is that I find mildly annoying those posts that do not warrant highlighting but nevertheless are highlighted.  This is, of course, a subjective view.  Objectively, however, a case could be made that this practice reduces the effectiveness of posts that do actually warrant highlighting.

Again, just to clarify, it is not the content of these posts that is annoying, neither is it the person that wrote them; it is merely the way they are being presented.

Regarding the spelling jibe, perhaps you have me confused with someone else?  Please quote just ONE example of when I have corrected someone's spelling!

I would reply, but that might reduce the effectiveness of replies to posts that warrant a reply

I like colourful posts - as long as they're not difficult to read

Even those are easy if you highlight them.
