The subject changed because many panties were getting knotted. Now the same thing is happening again. I would follow Legion's lead for a new subject, but it's too late for this post. ='( Maybe next time.

Hmmm... I think I'll try that new topic...
How about this:

Ok...uh...why not just use a goddamn baseball bat?

I'll have to ban you all. Disagreeing with me is infact a bannable offense.
Just look at the faq;

And since you have violated the rule 3 times, I will have to permaban you all.

Want to talk to me about reasons? Good. HTML was created for this reason: to provide a pretty low-beat easy-to-write document format with hyperlinks. It was going to be used more or less for scientific reports. There's your reason. The font tag was not in there originally. Why? Because it would not be useful in writing a scientific report. Lists are. Blockquotes are. Emphasised text is.

Yes, you're all saying "but this isn't a fucking scientific report, this is a message board". And you're right. My point is that changing the text color mid-text is not something that's done at all in publications. Like it or not, your post is more of a publication than a font tag fun-house. If you change the text color in the middle of the post for no appearent reason, you're a dolt. The only reason for using font tags that makes sense is that you'll want to set your layout. It's all about layout. You'll want your post to appear in green on black? All fine and dandy. Can be done with font tags as well as stylesheets. The stylesheets, however, have an upside to this.

Since HTML 4, which is about five or six years behind, HTML is not the recommended way in which to specify things such as the preferred color. This was not done to piss off the rest of the internet. This was done so it could be outsourced to stylesheets. And when it's outsourced to stylesheets, if you don't like the look of something (look kids, it's our old friend lime on pink!) you either disable the stylesheets or define a user stylesheet for your browser. You can't do that with font tags, which, again, are obsolete. The reason we use it on this board is, frankly, because the code is written to use obsolete HTML. I'm going to migrate the board into skipping things like font tags completely, and those of you using Netscape 2 can go upgrade.

The problems some of you are having with the layouts are that you're mixing old stuff, like font tags, and stylesheets. They don't blend well together. Or you set a background directly in the code - such as when using the Post background code - and the font color using an external stylesheet. The downside is that if the external stylesheet goes down, and the scheme color clashes with your background, which is still loaded, you're in deep shit. For this reason, the background should be set in your external stylesheet too. This isn't an inherent problem of font tags, or table tags, or even stylesheets. Both ways work spectacularly well. It's when you mix those ways, or use stylesheets from different sources (inline vs external) and one of those sources falls flat, that it all fails.

Jesper, I'm not even going to read that. I'll just assume you deliver a sliced of 0wnz0red pie to Cymoro who, if you'll remember, if a "cock mongrol".

I just put all my stylesheet information in the post header, which is maybe fifty more bytes on the server and just as quick to load for everyone else. Also, specify background colors in addition to images, so before the images load the color is still presumably easy to read against. Unless you're using backgrounds with transparency, in which case you should know what you're doing.

The html vs. css debate seems to be separate from the linked vs. embedded debate. No one cares about html vs. css, and I don't see a reason not to embed your information in your header instead of linking to it, unless you want random effects every reload, which is dumb stupid.

On the reminiscing topic, I looked in my private messages bin for once in forever and saw a whole shitload of stuff rom Koga I'd forgotten about. That guy was hilarious for all the wrong reasons.

I also noticed that he's unbanned now. I wonder if he'll come back.

Koga I remember posting a few times on this board and the old one. It's just I don't really remember much past that. Didn't feel very active but at the same time he was active enough for me and others to know him.

...he was banned?

ARGH

I meant Kon-Tiki, not Koga. Although Koga annoyed me to no end too.

Kon-Tiki

Check out the threads he made to get the little story.
