Ok so I know that Achronos is an overlord, but i want cool yellow lettering too! Or red, or green or something, Heck i can't even do this on my own group page!

So spill it Achronos is there a text markup we can use - or are you keeping this all to yourself?

Uh, there used to be text colour mark-up tags. But then the evil greedy Overlord took them and distributed them only to Bungie Staff and Moderators.

Or something.

Actually, you had people abusing the color tags, posting entire threads in color, etc. That's why the colors were removed.

Also, it's because it was decided that having moderators post in white and employees post in gold helps people who are looking for "official" commentary in the forums.

And this is one of the few things I agree with Senor Chad on. It was a very smart move guys.

If I might request a system for full control users of a group to get the same priviledge in their group? I realize it's probably not possible, but if it is, I would appreciate the hell out of it. :)

Let's just say people posting in terminal green wasn't a good thing (Sorry Nos, lol).

Yup. Therefore they decided that they'd have moderators and other staffy folk have different colours as their normal text so they now have entire threads in colour ;)

*shudders*

I missed that color.

The orange that employes looks ugly against blue and white looks too close to the light blue that normal members use. But that is just my oponion.

It would be cool of you had a setting on your chapters that would allow certain members of the group to use different colors. You could, for example, give the overlord (yourself) light blue text and the moderators of your chapter a bright green text.

Yes it would be cool. However, as has been said, it would be really quite difficult to achieve. Perhaps in a few years time it might happen ;)

Or even have those colours chosen by the maker of the Theme during the construction.

That would probably be the best choice. You could pick both an overlord color, and a auxiliary color.

I cant read green lettering very well but i'd still like to be able to put a little more originality into a post.

I'll be on my own side.

I love it! It never gets old...

I remember once I saw a post in New Mombasa where the other thing had every color of the rainbow. It was so pretty I took a screenshot.

Ever go through an old color intensive post and it's all turned to hell? I was trying that with Belgelmir, but the loss of the color tags makes it pointless to do now... It was much fun too. Making people play guessing games... He only posted once a week too.

I guess the mods must like posting here better than in the mod group. There it's Achronos "hah ha-hah ha-hah, you have boring white color..."

But seriously, I would like to have each rank in a group have custom colors.

Yeah, I think I only did that once; it was a post that definitely warranted the color.

Though I did have "terminal green" set up around my (not particularly creative) sig. I miss that sometimes... but then I get over it.

We could potentially give groups some abilities to use color text markup (at least I think, ultimatley Achronos would have to program it). It's also possible that there may be a point in time when some users may have the ability to use color text as a small perk for their continued service and contributions to our community....
