Posting in green?

bjones6416 · 10-26-2010, 05:40 PM

I've assumed for a while that when I see a post in green text, it's from a moderator speaking as a moderator. I've seen a couple of posts lately, though, that are in green although they don't seem to be from a moderator. Would it not avoid confusion if the ability to post in green were restricted to those in the Star Chamber?

(Not a big deal, obviously, but those green posts do tend to catch your eye!)

Thank you, excellent suggestion. We plan to make the distinction more uniform to avoid any possible confusion with non-moderator notes.

Moderators post in green?

That's news to me.

My Kindle only does black, white and grey.

I also can't access links on my Kindle.

Sorry!

says the man with a purple signature.

My signature is in alternating shades of grey and black.

And quite striking, if I do say so myself.

Which I do.

GeoffC · 10-27-2010, 04:46 AM

you may say that, I cannot possibly comment.

recluse · 10-27-2010, 05:04 AM

I could comment for you while you regather your wits.

"Why, yes, recluse! Your signature is indeed quite striking! A credit to your genius with a Kindle!"

Sounds about right to me.

GeoffC · 10-27-2010, 05:09 AM

Genius, Credit .... mmmm

recluse · 10-27-2010, 05:21 AM

You have been rendered incoherent by your proximity to the wonder of me.

Can't say as I blame you.

Sweetpea · 10-27-2010, 08:13 AM

Is Geoff ever coherent?

recluse · 10-27-2010, 08:36 AM

Actually, no.

But I thought I could train him to fake it.

GeoffC · 10-27-2010, 01:35 PM

Does this problem still occur if I'm wearing blue when I post ?

What !

Wait .... erm .....

recluse · 10-27-2010, 02:11 PM

Still incoherent.

Maybe his cat is posting for him.

I could have sworn he used to make sense.
