Font Size 5-6-7 removal

EvilKing · 10-09-2008, 01:34 PM

I personally think, that

extreme big font sizes are only a tool for curse control

and it is annoying to read entire threads in these sizes.

Font size 4
is absolutely fine for a headline

I remember there was a Rule hesham made awhile back, about users using BIG fonts. Evilking, look through the expired announcements of the Soldier Front Section via ModCP.

I saw several threads entirely written with supersized font.
It's there, people use it. I can't see a practical sense in font size 7.
I don't see a big problem with its existance but no big sense either.

Well, i clearly dont see the reason typing ONLY in fontsize 7.
However it got some bright sides, we'll attract blind people. They wont see the text, however i bet they can smell it.

No but seriously.
Remove it, doesnt make us any good.

Only idiots typing in fs7 entirely.

Yeah, we could just impose a Forum-Wide Rule, restricting posting in Font Size 5-7 only. Resetting the Font Size allowed for each Usergroup would take up a bit of time from Sky, and r2k - which I doubt they'd have the time to. Thus, a Forum-Wide Rule would be a pretty much simpler solution.

We don't necessarily need to limit the font size, but we could just impose a rule and infract people who abuse it.

By the way, you could have posted this in the Staff Section, seeing as it may gain more attention from r2k/Skyline there.

It's a pain in the ass to remove font sizes for vb, I just don't see skyline going through the trouble.

EvilKing · 10-12-2008, 09:35 AM

I don't worry if it remains there.
Not much people abuse it actually.
Was just an idea.
