Namtrak FUNNY BUGGER.

Zed - Good call Monkey Boy. You are not the only one to have a dislike Ele_13's choice of font size and colour I have actually had emails from members complaining (not you). So far have said if she chooses to bring attention to herself in that way then so be it.

Strange that it has taken so long for someone to mention it in a post. People come on here and bleat about "purple circles", "redies", "greenies" and all sorts of other colours, so why not "hot pink". It just seems like the natural progression of things.

We have had a couple of people literally drummed off the forums because they TYPED LIKE THIS, one poor old bloke who had trouble seeing his screen and what he typed was set upon by a dozen people enraged that he would actually come onto the forums shouting LIKE THIS AT PEOPLE. He copped a hell of a pasting for it and will probably never return.

It is Ele_13's choice and like it or not we should respect that choice, even if we think it is the wrong choice. Otherwise we will have the dogooders on here saying that we are discriminatory and wanting pink banned from the forums because it is politically incorrect or even worse still insisting that all posts (or at least 50% of them) are made using big hot pink type.

Just gotta say Zed, thanks for opening up yet another can of worms mate.

Cheers - Neil

PS As a rule I wouldn't buy into a post like this.... However, I am also not a fan of the big pink stuff and would prefer to see it gone, if only of pure aesthetics.

I don't have any trouble reading your reply. I just run my cursor over it to highlight it. So much for your invisible ink Jules.

Gotta agree with Zed, as he said definitely not picking on Jules but I find it a bit irritating to read & tend to skip over those posts as well.

I find reading this forum like reading a book, the easier on the eyes (for me, anyway) the better.

Free world tho' so do what pleases you, this post just in the spirit of honest feedback.


Regards & cheers...............Sean

No probs Neil, You're welcome.

for the record :

1) My original post was not a roast of Ele_13.
2) Any worms need opening here - happy to oblige
3) I am on a quest for more rep points thus the topical post (2 greenies so fart )
4) for the record - I have never complained about :
a) greenies
b) reddies
c) purple circle
d) other members (except to tell 'em to "farck off" - midn you thats usually done vocally, publically, in jest.

I personally feel it is VERY insensitive of Zed to complain about the size of a ladys' pink bits! I am shocked and not a little stunned...

shuffling feet, looking down Er, riggggghhhhhhttttt

You would have had three but it seems I have to share some love.

Don't worry Craig, your inability to give him a green is cancelled out by my inability to give him a red!!
