Posts with... the following
Is there anything being done..
to stop posts like these? It's cute once in awhile but a few members are beginning to copy it more often.
Just an additional note: There is only a rule against colors in Signatures, so anyone can technically make their posts 'any' color.
And multiple colors, I think there should be rules against that before it gets popular as well.

I frequent these forums almost every hour and I see posts like those very rarely.

Sirius,
That there are a million copycats on this forum and every thread will look like a package of skittles after a few people start posting in color more often.

David, so far this hasn't been a major problem. If it becomes, the creation of a new rule will be discussed. The rules are numerous enough as it is, and there's no real need to add this new one at this point in time IMO.

I know I've gone from one post after another today of the above though (theres no need to add 100 linebreaks in a message, ever)..
nonetheless I guess I'll just patiently await the day when it's no longer allowed.
Take care Dan!

I don't know where you are seeing all these, you must hang out in different places to me If the line breaks are excessively long, report them and we can shorten them. As for colours, I don't see a problem with that at present.
