I have also removed the cursive(blackadder ITC) font from all ranks as not everyone has that font installed and it looks bad without it.

I have also changed the colors of the ranks that I think are a better touch and clash less with skins.

Awww... I kinda wanted to aim for a fancy blue fonted name. :P Can't say I'm one of the people who supports the changes... Seems a little bland, even if the colours DO all fit in.

Eh, to be honest, I don't think I like this. The name colors were one of the unique things about this forum that I liked.

I still can't use this.

This is totally fine with me. I've never been one for the username colors anyways. We have so many other ways of distinguishing our ranks and posting habits that I can't see the removal of one ultimately mattering at the end of the day. Besides, as you said, this one will provide some cohesiveness in light of all of the different skins we have, and it might just make me willing to part with Shadow Blade 2... maybe.

In short, I approve of this decision. x3

Because staff made me do it. =P

it is way too cold for this
Suddenly, the colors don't feel so right anymore.

It's really weird seeing Blue's name in red. It's equally weird seeing every name look the same. I'm sure we can adjust, but eh.

...Is it possible to have the option to turn on/off all name colors?

What he said. Doesn't matter to me if some names seem to appear a bit bland.
It was more colourful as well. So, can't say I support this, but oh well if it fancies to some, I guess I'll just have to coop with it.
Working on banner, but if your looking to have some time off. Come, visit my channel on youtube.

If you do not like this, we need to come up with a solution. The colors were great but they conflicted with too many skins. We could do stuff like little icons after the names like admins have?

We can't do certain rank colors for certain skins.

Yeah not too fussed with the different colours, but maybe differentiate from the moderator/admin though. That way they stand out better ad you know whos who.

One of the MG forums i'm on are all red for members and green for moderators, works well.

The easiest solution is to come up with a better color scheme.

This.

Please.

I kinda liked having my name be Gray since I'm SilverB, and I would like to Reach the next blue some day.

I was actually going to suggest that. Maybe not for every member, but for staff and the higher ranking members at least.

Names with an option to turn colo(u)rs on and off would be a good thing. But this is just becoming a bit too much like communism for me. :P

I know some of you won't like this but due to the fact that not one color will blend in nicely with EVERY skin I have removed all colors associated with rank. This way we don't have usernames that are unreadable in some skins.
To be honest, if username colors clashing with skins is THAT much of the problem to people, then they should just use another skin. :/

I say the colors were fine. Removing them so suddenly without any warning just seems unnecessary. And plus, the users list just looks bland now without any colors in it.

I am glad that the fancy swirly font was removed I never had it installed but when I did I hated everything looking swirly and hard to read. I like it being plainer but are we never having ANY colours again? Not even like per staff rank or whatever?
