Accepted Allow red in shoutbox

You're acting like a child Xpro. No one talked shit he just said you look dumb and silly for trying to get someone in trouble for using red in rainbow lettering and then getting yourself banned and now trying to make it no longer a rule.

 

Irrelevant to the thread.

 

You do realize people are more likely to listen to someone that can behave rather than a toxic person right?

 

Look at my OP, nothing toxic there. Yet I get all these reactions.

 

I wasn't talking about op but things like

 

Toxicity lvl over 9000!!!
Also only highwon use red red is owner color

 

I'd support the removal of the ban on red if the staff team just came out with a way of making announcements/stand out text a feature. Like text that does the job of red but better and doesn't limit a color and just creates headaches because it is banned. Some people try to get as close to red as possible, but not enough to get in trouble and they're just trolls, but it's understandable how ridiculous it is to 'ban' a color if it isn't used properly.

Just try to figure out a way to push like an "announcement" feature for shoutbox that's a button everyone can use, and then make rules around it for it to not be abused/spammed. Or even better yet, make a feature that distinguishes between staff requests and staff warnings/announcements. I'd imagine that wouldn't be too hard.

 

Because I specifically requested, if you disagree, post why, yet these people just rate negative. Wouldnt be surprised if they were rating me personally rather than my content.

Shoutbox isnt the place for announcements, becuase like I said, content just gets deleted within a couple hours. If you want announcements use news section, or if you have something like staff groups being updated, make a roving banner or some shit.

 

I mean announcements like warnings and stuff lol

 

Whens the last time a warning has ever been given in red. Maybe once in the past 3 months from what I've seen.

 

With some reports being made as of late that revolved around "I didn't see the warning" - I don't think it's exactly too outlandish of an idea for staff to try and make sure their warnings are noticed if they can. Red isn't primarily used for warnings, right, but that's not what I'm suggesting. I'm suggesting a more distinct message or notification that let's everyone know whatever information the person using the feature is trying to get out.

Same as when we declared red to be the color of purely announcements two years ago the usage of something can change. Announcements, warnings, and staff requests should stick out more. The finer details of how much they should stick out and what they should look like is ultimately up to the staff team, but it just makes more sense to not forbid a color and make a not only more convenient, but a more noticeable and prominent notif.

 

As for the argument of using it for warnings, if we move to discord colors won't mean anything. Additionally this means that all staff have to inconvenience themselves by changing their color (even harder on mobile)

 

Oh well can't win em all but I'll debate til I die.

 

For me I'm neutral because I don't feel that red should be used at all like dark blue and that the rule should be removed and red would just be banned by the color rule. As you see no staff ever use it and people can still see warnings good enough already.

 

Ive just been banned for posting important announcements in red so that means i support this now

 

Tell me how those are important.

 

Im the best.

 

I just want it to be for important announcements

 

those were typos im sorry no ones perfect also ur warnings werent very clear
