No red font wtf?

[*DAMN Hazard]

I have been using a Red font since forever and its not necessary to use Red for editing. Why can't you use a color like brown which is not used by a lot of people. Or for an Edit you could write something like this:

EDIT: Blah blah blah -Moderator

I don't see why this has to be in Red. I have always seen the edits by moderators no matter what color they are in. Or why cant you just bold it?

etc etc-Moderator

I don't see the need to overcomplicate things.

I believe the anti-red usage is a policy only used by AssAss, which hopefully will not continue.  Purple was removed out of respect for Grifter, and green might be if Brain ever died.  And perhaps you'd all remove black if I died

[|MP|Buccaneer]

Hazard, you'd think that them asking you not to use it would be enough.

The admins want to use red for their messages so that they stand out, what's the earth shattering big deal in that?

And before I hear "then they should make it unavailable for us to use", I want you to show me how that's possible in YABBSE.  Even if they could do it, it's not a very good excuse for why you have to use red.

Hell, use purple.  Nobody uses that because of Grifter, but he wouldn't care.  He only chose it because it was a color that nobody else would use.  His favorite color was GREEN btw.  Purple just turned into his default because of his posting so much.  If you go back to some of his very old posts (Mauti has them all, I checked them out), He used different colors before purple.  

So Hazard, just pick something other then Red.  You don't need to be one of the guys that just bucks authority because it's there.  We have enough of those already.

One side note.  I think Brain's account should be deleted soon.  As I see he is nearing Grifter's post count.  

[jn.loudnotes]

1.  Lol. . .Mauti removed purple from the list of color choices, but I guess if you put in in the YABB code it still works.  I think I'll try some others then, see if they work too. . .

cyan
[color=FFF000]FFF000[/color]
magenta

2.  I agree with Hazard. . .he should be able to use any color he chooses. . .unless Mauti says otherwise. . .it being Mauti's board.

3.  Bondo has twice Grifter's post count. . .

You think Bucc would be opposed to having Bondo's account removed to? :P

As for using red, I would personally prefer that other people do not use red. That has been the mod color for a very long time, and it has created some consistency so people notice what is the work of mods and what isn't.

[jn.loudnotes]

I don't use it when I mod posts. . .and almost any color will stand out

Except this:

I could type secret messages here and no one would ever see them unless they were smart enough to highlight the text.  HAHAHA!  If you've read this, mysteriously post "eeeeee" at the bottom of your next message.  Bonus points if you can figure out how to do it without reading my source code (which the mods can do)

By the way, why isn't this mauve?

[PsYcO aSsAsSiN]

Ace pretty much sums up my argument.

As for you Hazard, I didn't know that forever was a few months.  

You really shouldn't have told them the secret of yabb loudnotes...heh

Oh yeah, eeeeee

P.S.: Anyone can find out the secret by quoting your text

Is this Indigo?

[Brain]

i'd like to point out, first of all that i use green to moderate, not red so i could care less what color you use (except for green, that's mine, )
and i think that would be cool if you did retire green if i died or had some other serious accident

loud i dont have a clue why that isnt mauve

and finally to bucc's comment about my account:
NO, not my account, eeeeeek!


nice little hint there loud, hehe, ofcourse you need to alternate that with DBDBDB to be completly invisible

[Bondo]

3.  Bondo has twice Grifter's post count. . .

Really?  I did not know that .

You think Bucc would be opposed to having Bondo's account removed to?

Grifter deleted my account once...that is why before the forums were upgraded I wasn't listed as the top poster.

[Ace]

Hazard, for the record, my forever of using red to moderate is way longer than your forever of using red. :P
Bah, any fool can make a secret message, but only really cool people can do it with style.Btw, am I just missing something or is a big chunk of loudnote's post after "Except this:" not there?

[Brain]

yea, i think some over zealous mod cut it out.
now who could that be
shoddy work there ace, you need to do better color matching. the color you want is DBDBDB, of course this would be easier if people didnt delete posts above mine, thus changing the background

[jn.loudnotes]

Ace yours is the wrong color. . .

now who has style?  PWNED![/color]

If your post would show up with the darker background, use dbdbdb

[Deadeye]

You think Bucc would be opposed to having Bondo's account removed to?

ace has this way of summing up the obvious and making it artful.  i like it.

Grifter deleted my account once...that is why before the forums were upgraded I wasn't listed as the top poster.

an accusation like that without proof is slander bondo.  since he's not here to defend himself, it's also bad taste to bring it up.

[†FiRE Infection]

I use Maroon Italicized to moderate, Haz is a moderator too you know, so I don't really care.

!eeeee!

[Jeb]

i don't see why you have to bitch about not being able to use the color red, non of your human rights are infringed upon and if you care about it to much you need to go outside for a change.
Just remember that a true spammer doesn't take the time to add font color to posts  

[Bondo]

I wasn't insulting him for doing it...I don't hold it against him...you know what they say, no harm, no foul...that doesn't change that he did it.  Why do you need to take it so personally?

You still want proof?  I had been using the same user name/password combination at macclans where Grifter would be able to see it and then suddenly after a spat with him my account is deleted.  It doesn't take a moron to figure out.

[Ace]

You are accusing Grifter on evidence that is circumstantial at best Bondo. Almost all the BB systems like this encrypt passwords, therefore he wouldn't have even been able to access yours if he wanted to. So yeah, think about what you are saying. Real classy man.

[(SiX)Ben]

WTF... My post was deleted... Granted, it was spam, but it needed to be there for this:

eeeeee
So pwned...

Well, since we can't read passwords on the forums, as Mauti will confirm with YABB here too, it would have been hard for him to get it.  All we can do is change your password.  We can't see what it is.  They are encrypted, even to us.  I'll show you a screenshot of the admin space if you don't believe that.

Why take it personally?  Seeing as he was a lifelong friend of Deadeye's (they were friends longer then you have drawn breath), I'd say he's more then justified in finding that offensive.  I find it offensive, and I was never as close as Deadeye was.  You have shown again that you are a no class asshole Bondo.  

[Bondo]

Well, I'm an admin at a forum where you can see the passwords.  And my account didn't just delete itself.

As for me being an asshole for what I said...you two really need to get over it.  Yes he died, but does that make him a god or something.  Just because someone dies you have to say they did no wrong and were perfect?
