Since I have been attacked by some members for using colored text in my posts, I thought I would open a poll to see what other members think.

I like colored text.
You like it but others can not like it.

You have freedom to use color for your texts and they have freedom to dislike color used by you in your texts. If they said they don't like your used colors, it does not mean you must stop it. If you see their recommendation is right, you can change your colorful texting style but if you disagree, just use what color you see right.

Honestly you can google and see using colors for texts are not always good and generally their recommendation for you makes sense. It's just you accept it or not and how they used what words to express their recommendation for you so you see it is comfortable or so harsh.

I think if people are use colored text for nothing, it's better for theymos to change the domain from bitcointalk.org to kindergarten.org.

Colored text is useful if you want to highlight something, just like in Report plagiarism (copy/paste) here. Mods: please give temp or permban as needed

Also this is not only about colored text, but text styling too, don't use bold for no reason.

IMHO every forum I know offers text formatting with all kinds of options including colors for text. There must be a reason for this because if it was not good or acceptable to use the text formatting they would not offer it
Colored text isn't supposed to be an issue on any online forum, except after being abused by some members who actually makes the abuse so obvious and irritating. Yes it's is offered on the forum futures for purpose like highlisting an important part of your post and making it being noticed by your readers.
Creating a whole thread filled with over 3 or more text color to me seems very immature and shows signs of a low quality poster. So if one must use the text color, it must be for some reasons.

Also I have one question for you mate. Do you know that color at different instance Carrys different meaning?
For ever color offered on the forum, they all shows different meaning and tells us some how what the writer is trying to pass along. So when using them, consider what you are trying to pass along before inserting too much color in your post.

Do not expect admin to remove color text feature on this forum because it is very important while making topics and some posts. You can see some people that use it appropriately and it makes their post to be neat and attractive to read.

But some people are using it in a way it makes their posts annoying. Some people will just color all the words in their posts and that is annoying.


Example of the one that is annoying:

I am starting this thread and question as in a recent discussion a member answered me to my posting:

>my opinion is that legit casinos should publish the bankroll amount as I think a big bankroll will attract big and small players and a small bankroll will only attract small players if at all.

His answer:
I don't think this is really that necessary though I do agree with you that this move will definitely attract really big players to the casino if their bankroll is large enough, and would also raise the casino's reputation and customer's trust for them to the roof tops, but still, making this information public is still in the casino's descretion, it's up to them to decide to do it


IMHO By making the bankroll publicly available, online casinos would demonstrate their commitment to accountability and fair play.

I'm aware that there are different perspectives on this issue, and I'm eager to hear what the community thinks. Do you think that online casinos should disclose their bankrolls? Why or why not? And if so, what measures could be implemented to ensure accuracy and reliability in reporting?

Let's start a discussion and delve into the pros and cons of this proposal. Your insights and opinions are greatly appreciated!

I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

PS
Please refrain from personal attacks and insulting me or any other member as this is a serious issue and should be discussed accordingly.


edit:

As a member wrote that I missed to add a poll, I have now found the option to add a poll.
If you think I should add a poll, please let me know. Thanks!

>  I thought about adding a poll, but then I was afraid that many spammers will just vote and not comment and it might give us a wrong picture.




But this is not annoying tBTC loans

Some people use it to make what they needed to let people know to easily be seen. Red for example as a warning and something to avoid and blue for example as an important information. But not that they will have all the post in colours.

Hello Members

Since I have been attacked by some members for using colored text in my posts, I thought I would open a poll to see what other members think.

I like colored text.

IMHO every forum I know offers text formatting with all kinds of options including colors for text. There must be a reason for this because if it was not good or acceptable to use the text formatting they would not offer it.

Please vote and give us your pros and cons in a friendly and civilized manner.

Interesting for me is if most members vote to remove and not offer the text formatting, if the forum owner will take it out and delete the text formatting.



Since I could not find the option to add more questions, I will add more questions with answers here to give more food for discussion. If anyone knows how to do this, I would be grateful if they could point me in the right direction.
