Honestly, I cannot stop staring at it. Iām losing sleep because of it.
I donāt know when this was introduced, nor do I know why it needed a change and what was wrong with the old way.
Itās just soā¦ orange.

I thought this was going to be a topic about forum moderation.
Actually, I donāt even know what this topic is about.
Itās about orange icons. A topic very dear to my heart.
You wanted them red?
Noā¦ My point was, why change them? It was a muted blue before, now itās a bright orange that āpops outā and takes focus. Why change it?
yes it would fit nicely with the ingame redphobia
And obviously this thread is a semi-joke thread, but Iām honestly curious why the need to change it.

Uh, I thought it was obvious. CCP hires introverted community development people. Every time they try to ādo somethingā about the forums, they decide that the best use of their time is tinkering with settings.

Yeah, makes sense. Probably some intern that spent their time fiddling with the settings to fill wage hours.
No way was it an intern.
The new community manager @CCP_Fleebix ?
Ummm, you obviously feel quite passionate about colour, particularly orange and (as a graphic designer in RL) I do get that, but āruinedā as an adjective? Possibly a tiny, tiny bit of an overreaction, maybe?
Maybe you need a nice lie down and an Alka-Seltzer?

Itās called click-bait honey.
Thanks darling.
Love the hair.
Thanks. Also nice to know, that an IRL graphical designer does somewhat agree that orange is an odd/unconventional choice to use.

on a dark grey background, blue was not a good choiceā¦ and considering my favorite colors together are orange and black, it would look betterā¦
case in point: If looking under the ālatestā tab, when showing replies or views to topics, they are so dark blue i cannot see them, and would prefer lighter colors than blue to be used on a dark charcoal background.
