Don't Write in color??? WTF?

Kimi79

Hi Girls! So I posted a topic on the etiquette board, where I was seriously looking for advice, I wrote my question in the green color b/c that's one of my wedding colors and I thought it would be fun... So this snotty girl replied and said "#1 don't write in color, write in black. #2...." then proceeded to give her answer to my question... I'm fairly new to these boards but I feel like they give you the color options for a reason, and who the hell does this girl think she is telling me what to do??? If she had a serious reason for saying it then fine, but she could've done it in a nicer way... If she was so annoyed by my green writing she could've just ignored my question instead of being an a-hole. So basically I want to know if I'm missing something and there is some kind of rule about colored posts, and 2. don't you think that was bitchy of her??? WTF? Thanks!!! )

That would be me you're talking about.  It's common netiquette not to write in colored text because it's difficult to read. 

Blueyed228

I wonder if this is the same troll that got banned for saying something nasty about Tide earlier.

Either way its all MUD to me......

JenGin74

Tide - you're such a heinous bitch. How can your husband stand you!!!11!!

Celles

Kimi, do you have an AE named Heather-something?   Just curious.

eta - I'm on Blue's wavelength today.  Skeery. 

tidetravel

Blue - If OP doesn't know not to write in color, she probably doesn't know what an AE is either, so, no.

saxy414

Oh dear.  Tide's response was in no way bitchy.  And running to other boards to complain will only make people less likely to be helpful in the future.  Just relax.  She was giving a helpful hint to make your stay on the boards more pleasant.

MarriedInAFever

WHY WOULD THE KNOT GIVE US COLOR OPTIONS IF WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO USE THEM?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

tidetravel

Also, OP.  You forgot to thank me for the advice, which was reasonable and sound.  YWIA.

JenGin74

where'd she go? I'm rammy tonight. It's Friday

NatesGirl16

I heard that only Satan posts in color.  True story.

Dude, Kimi, do you think that people on other boards don't read SB? If you have a complaint about someone on a board, complain ON THAT BOARD. Seriously.

Also? The people on the boards have long memories. Starting your time off on TK by complaining about someone else for asking you to post in black isn't going to win you any friends and people will remember you as "that poster" forever.

*files away SN Kimi for future reference as having issues and being a snot*

Ha. I bet if comic sans were an option she'd be all over that shiit

MarriedInAFever

I wish she would type in Wingdings.

Clearly you would've been better off with fuschia.

LMAO it WAS you Tide!  Wrong board for this complaint, OP.

Oh, and would you like some cheese with that whine?

where the hell have you been? did anyone give you permission to have a life?

tidetravel

Here's an example of bitchy:

I really hope that 79 isn't the year of your birth.  That would mean that you're 32 years old and still writing in crayon.  Combine that with the excessive!!!  punctuation???, and I'm going to guess that you're 32 going on 12.  Grown ups write in pen, deary. 

Feel better now?

I did forget to check with my SB ladies before wandering off.  I will take whatever punishment you feel appropriate.

Too much crapola to recap...just busy with things I'd rather not having going on.  I came back last night and am ready to talk <font color="#00ff00">sex swings</font>!

This is so incredibly cute in a, I want to pat your head, way.

Fvcking sex swings, how do they work?

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

It's sort of an internet rule to not post in things that are hard to read. You should always stick to the default. The internet's been widely used for, what, fifteen years now?

OMG, my head is going to explode.

How do you figure she was annoyed? She simply told you to write in black. And several other people explained that it's because it's easier to read. How is that mean? Not only that, but she also answered your question seriously and intelligently. You consider that being an a-hole, or being bitchy?

I have no idea how you've been coping with life, if this is something that bothers you.
