Rayn, a question.
So far Colosus has taken away a forum feature of Color, for no good reason. His reasoning is that it is being exploited for attention. If the masses were truly upset, there would be threads to discuss his banning. But no. The masses were not upset.
Like others have mentioned, where is the line drawn? People use fonts, formatting options, have signatures, etc that all draw attention to the poster.
Furthermore, no one ever approached Trop from the Administration to discuss his posting antics. I think a simple, we don't like what you're doing from beren would of sufficed and Trop would of stopped or toned it down.
And even if he went a step FURTHER and didn't obey the Administration, a simple temp ban would of sufficed, if the masses called for it.
My request is to reinstate color, if they use it, they use it. It's a fad and will die down. If it doesn't, a simple request from the admin to the user should suffice!
