    Well, that looks weird. The Vanilla is pink, the Chocolate is blue and it look like Strawberry is going to show as yellow.

    Vanilla, uninteresting, bland, and not a proper flavour for ice cream.

    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    Judging by the rather bland design, I would be surprised if they had any flavor at all.
    This is a new account I had to create, because the old one does not work with the new forums. :/

    Oh, they do. Remember that nasty-looking nutrient paste they fed the original Robocop? :p

    They're not much off from what they were before. Avatars are smaller. There's no "titles" under the names. But...hrmm...

    ...it's a cached copy, so some stuff is off - but generally speaking, the colors we've got are the colors we had.

    Sure, the quoting stood out better...but all in all...yeah, I'm finding the "bland" comments confusing given what it was.

    Thought: A lot of us, after the old forums got that "Fifty Shades of Boring" revamp, were running Stylist with a setup some forum user had made thus not looking at grey on grey on grey. Me, I'm missing the black background with white text I was using until this last migration something fierce.

    Currently investigating use of something similar to rectify the new (to me) blandnado, too.

    You know, it really might cause a seizure in people who suffer from reflex epilepsy. Not saying it to be mean or anything, but I live with a person with "brain variables" so such things kind of stand out to me.

    On another off-topic note, I had someone in my public speaking class give her speech on how her cousin who worked at a casino was possessed by a demon because her parents must have made a deal with the Devil. One of the symptoms was an episode of loss of consciousness while at work at the casino. I immediately suspected epilepsy.

    Strawberry
    the forum is kinda fruity, so i picked strawberry.

    Oh TRIBBLE. Like the few usual suspects in CO that I'm always squabbling with? I'm really sure your intentions are noble. Take a hike.
  • alexmakepeacealexmakepeace Member Posts: 10,633 Arc User
    Already did. Yesterday. My legs ache. And yes, my intentions are noble, though I have been known to be overly concerned about little things.
  • kojirohellfirekojirohellfire Member Posts: 1,606 Arc User
    Well take your "concern" elsewhere. I've been trolled enough already.
  • alexmakepeacealexmakepeace Member Posts: 10,633 Arc User
    No one's stopping you from deciding that my concern is unwarranted, or to point out why I'm wrong (I would listen, even if I didn't agree), but to dismiss it out of hand as "trolling" is... reactionary. If you had just said that you disagreed, I'd have been okay with it, but the hostility just ticks me off and makes me stay to write semi-long off-topic posts like this one. I can understand why you'd be annoyed about the subject, since I've seen people poke you about it before, but that doesn't mean you get to jump to conclusions about my intent and slap a "troll" label on me.

    And while I'm ranting, everybody uses the term "troll" too casually. They slap it on anyone they don't like, turning them from people into things, because people have nuance and insight and feelings, but things do not. There's a lot of terms like this: troll, TRIBBLE, bigot, moron, liberal, conservative, true believer, unbeliever/denier, etc. Ways to not think about things and turn a person into "the enemy" which can be comfortably vanquished.

    Meanwhile, actual trolls (used according to Wikipedia's definition) can lurk comrotably amongst all the noise.

    Maybe you should take your own advice then and look up what "reactionary" actually means.

    Maybe you should look at that strobe light you're passing off as a signature then look up what "troll" means.

    Eh. Silly me for assuming that it means what it sounds like it means. Politics. Meh. I guess volatile more closely matches my intended meaning, but not quite. I meant to say you reacted strongly based only on what you assumed were hostile intentions, even though I gave no evidence of intended hostility.

    From now on, I think I'll hijack that word to mean that. It's gotta be better than saying "literally" as an intensifier for figurative events. Maybe I can get it into the dictionary.

    Look up "passive-aggressive" now and see how I can easily suspect ill intent from allegedly kindly-worded posts.
  • alexmakepeacealexmakepeace Member Posts: 10,633 Arc User
    I guess I can understand that. Maybe you'll just take my word for it, then: I bear you no ill intentions, and I meant exactly what I said and no more. Like I said, I live with someone who's literally (literally literally, not figuratively literally) missing a big chunk of her brain, so even though she doesn't suffer from epilepsy, I think about how things affect brain-injured people more than most folks do.
