I never understood this but why are the employees' text color gold?

I had always believed it should be a light blue or anything like that.

I reckon it's because gold signifies authority in a way.

Either that or it's just because they just liked said color.

Easier to see I guess. Blue kinda blends with the site.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

I associate Bungie employees with urine.

I don't always ban people but when I do I laugh uncontrollably...that's if I was a Forum Ninja.

Truth is a matter of perception.

It's gold actually. Don't they deserve to be the color of the world's most precious medal?

Hmmmmmm....
Anyway, blue would probably look better, but I'm used to gold by now.

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

Then wouldn't it be the color of tungsten? Or osmium?

Gold Septagon = Gold Text. (Makes since to me.)

Also, I think the Gold text is more of an eye catcher.

I wear the cheese, it does not wear me.

This account is now retired due to WLID changing. Webteam needs to fix that, seriously >.>

Easy spotting of officially official replies from official forum using employee's who have important things to say which may or may not be official. Light blue may be easy to miss and all shades of blue should be reserved for my use only.

On a related note: I heard marty doesn't get gold because he is like a "holy bucket" so on the odd occasion when he ventures into public forums and his private group he doesn't attract attention. But I've no idea what a divine bucket has to do with anything. All of this was told to me by my friend who is a squirrel so it's totally true.

Yes, but if it was blue then it would be a blue septagon... Unless the gold septagon came way before gold text..

Still makes no sense :\

The site is largely blue, so I guess bright yellow text is the most eye-catching as yellow is on the opposite side of the colour spectrum.

Marty has gold text. :P No employee has gold text in groups.
