It looks like everyone else is using all sorts of colors here. πŸ™„

I’m stuck with plain black. πŸ˜• πŸ˜•

Why does that happen?? 🀷 🀷

Can anyone tell me why??

I’ve messed with all the settings, but nothing worksβ€”it's just black and that's it. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

For some reason, I seem stuck with just plain black text. πŸ˜• πŸ˜•

Does anyone happen to know why that is? 🀷 🀷

Could someone point me in the right direction?

I've spent quite a bit of time poking through the various settings, but nothing seems to workβ€”it stays stubbornly black. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

[COLOR = "blue"] text [/COLOR] -> text
If you remove the spaces, it looks like this: COLOR="blue". You can swap out "blue" for any color you like, such as "red" or whatever else fits your mood.

…you should probably take a quick look through this post here too
it’ll likely clear up a whole lot of those lingering questions you have…

It’s pretty obvious nowβ€”I used to be able to click that big "A" icon to pull up the color palette, but now it just sits there doing nothing, which is why I started this thread.

I see you guys have been tinkering with the site and adding all these supposedly "useful" features.

You probably think you're making things easier, but you're actually just bloating the server, which explains why we keep getting those 503 and 504 errors.

As for the user experience, you haven't made it simpler; you've just managed to break what was already working.

Look, when you use the "quick reply" option, it messes with the letter A.

Yeah, it actually works in quick replies.

Thanks for the heads-up. I hadn't noticed since I usually only care about this when I'm quoting someone to make a point.

I appreciate you bringing that to my attention; I hadn't quite realized the significance of the rule, as my primary focus tends to be on the moments when I am quoting others to drive home a specific point.

One might find that utilizing bold text can serve as an effective way to emphasize specific points within a conversation. 🀷

It’s not the font color, it’s the freaking size... I couldn't find a specific thread for this, so I just grabbed the first thing that looked even remotely close.
My bad if this looks messy, I'm just typing on the fly hereβ€”I must've bumped something on my keyboard because now the text on this forum is microscopic... seriously, it's tiny.
Honestly, I have no clue what button I hit, and now I'm stuck staring at these tiny little ants instead of actual words.
Every other site I visit looks perfectly fine, it's just this one forum that's acting like a miniature version of itself.
Thanks in advance!

Hold down that CTRL key and just tap the + button. Keep clicking until the text is big enough for you to read comfortably! β˜•

A quicker way to fix it: Ctrl+0

That probably happened because you were scrolling with the mouse wheel while holding down the CTRL key. πŸ˜‰
