I know that this is an old age worn topic, and that standard member font colors will always stay the same (most likely) and that there is no point in trying to change that fact. However, why can we not have changeable font colors for those members in chapters with special security privelages? Like on the page for changing a special security role's options, why not have an option for them to have a special font color that only the full control user(s) could change? Obviously they would have to use common sense as to not pick a color that wouldn't show up well on whatever theme they had, but is that a big deal?

Please, enlighten me on this subject.

You can change the colors on a news topic in your group, so having colors for higher ranked people doesn't seem so far-fechted. I think it would be a great feature.

I remember the glory days when you could have your post in all the colors of the rainbow...but of course (like any good thing) it was abused...and taken away.

Actually if it could be implemented for groups and only groups, I wouldn't mind seeing colors, and if you could assign colors for specific members/roles, even more interesting.

Then they should give the more important people better colors in the main forums.

You mean...like they do now? Or did you mean something else? Frankly, colors aren't really needed on the main forums. Equality for the win!

Although I do feel that 'special' avatars are enough for a regular member to figure out who is and who isn't a regular member, The White or Gold color fonts can make for quick scanning when your brain is tired at 3am and you just want the 'end all answer' to the thread your viewing.

I'm sure this has been brought up multiple times, and I fail to see any real downsides. I think there are two reasons it hasn't been implemented:

* Laziness
* Lack of support [from the masses] for it

Why, I do believe you misunderstood me. I meant equality for all "Members." Not necessarily equality for every account.

Besides, custom avatars aren't equal.

Oh...well then.

In that case what I wrote is meaningless...and I wrote because of your post...so...i'm mad at you.

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.
