The End

‘The conscious is cancerous if allowed to linger’

"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."

Part of me hopes to see the classic group skins return though. I really liked Forerunner, Mullins and Columns WW!

I'll turn the screws of vengeance and bury you with honesty
I'll make all your dreams come to life, then slay them as quickly as they came

The ones you suggested, no. If we could have access to any of those, I'd pick the Indent, Left, Right, and Center tags. They'd be the most useful.

Indent, left right and center tags are the only one's needed anything else is useless. you can just as easily link the picture to a photo upload site.

The reason why we have no color tags to customize text on the main forums today is because people years ago decided to abuse that power. People are very predictable, give them an inch and they'll take a parsec. Now if people learned how to be mature, responsible, and nice we just might have colors here. However I believe if that even happend that they shouldn't be allowed on the main forums. The main forums make a statement about the type of website Bungie.net is. If a random user strolls in and sees a presentable, fashionable website then they might stay and create an account to join in on the discussion. However say someone comes into the forums seeing every other letter in a paragraph a different color, they might back away because it is tacky and hard to read. As with someone seeking to get a high paying job, presentation and appearance is key. Bungie.net is a website that needs to keep a literal presentation with a clean, professional appearance. Allowing users, at their own will, to color pieces of text randomly on the main forums would break that presentation and appearance in my opinion. That is why I believe users shouldn't have the ability to use colors at their own will.

[img] tags would be cool, but there are people who would abuse them.

I agree with the color part, but I hate it when people use this really stupid excuse. Its like saying that if we use words on a forum that people would misuse them to flame and talk dirty all the time. This is why we have MODERATORS.

There are more reasons to why colors shouldn't be added to the website. Not only would people abuse them, but I'm sure I heard of a conversation where it would be a slightly larger problem for the site. Apparently allowing thousands upon thousands of people to use color tags would be a little bit of a strain on Bungie.net, from last I heard. I don't know all of the details...maybe Achronos could fill us in?

First of all, your posts don't need optional colors. One color is easier. Lastly, Bungie doesn't use green that much. Blue, black, and white are their main colors.

Oh, that changes everything. Well...let's see....

I think that it would be neat for the Master Moderators to have the ability to post images. They could stream a constant amount of content into The Gallery. I think that would spice things up a bit.

I think that would be great, especially in groups!
