Gonna have to be that guy and say no...

1) Just like some people out there make there orbs completely white where you can't read them at all, I know users would do that with their text.

2) Spammers and people with high warn will want to make their text font the biggest possible, causing it to be irritating, obnoxious, in the way, and a way of yelling.

3) Some people, including me, find it annoying when people center or right align there text. I know it's not a big deal to simply move your eyes but it just is not necessary. You read from the left of the page to the right, this isn't a place to type centered poems.

4) Lots of people would use unreadable fonts and I know Paul could narrow it down to readable ones but things would just get even more messy.

The one thing that gives this a chance is the ability to turn all that off with a check box, so I like that ;)

Gonna have to be the guy that has a response for each point you made:

1) There's already a LOT of users who make their font white, so that point is a bit moot.

2) It wouldn't be hard to implement something stopping the highly large font sizes after a certain warn, such as when you are warned you have a limit to the amount of pictures you can put in your profile etc.

3) Yet again read #1, another moot, repetitive point.

4) Everyone already has access to a lot of "unreadable" fonts. Such as: http://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=36872318&f=34 refer to #10. And yet no one seems to do it.


And yes since all of that can be turned off completely, points 1-4 should not have even been covered. Thanks for you input though I do appreciate that! :santa:

Voted no; I already dislike people who post in white, or absurdly wild fonts which I have to strain to see.. I'm a lazy guy and I like to check through things quickly :)

The option to turn everything off would take negative 2 seconds. But thanks for your input!
