Automatic colour background behind staff post

by Guest February 14th 2009, 2:22 pm

Please ignore the text within the image, it's irelevant.

I propose to you all, a feature that allows the admins on the forum to enable coloured backgrounds for their staffs posts.
Like the picture above, moderators have green backgrounds to show they are staff.
This feature can be turned on and off with one click.
The admin can choose what colour the background is.

It's simple and clear. So, thoughts?

Yes, It will make members be able to better identify staff. Then they don't end up disrespecting or something and getting a warning or even banned.

that can be done by seeing the user color also bwi

I actually made a suggestion about this a long time ago. I also including "Hiding Posts" =>[Link]

I voted yes..

@ Base+Darren... The background is so that you can easily see Forum Moderators and Administrators.

@ DarkLord... Myself and Pogosheep00 are both talking about making all of the background of the post, not just a but of colour on the name in the corner of the post.

I voted yes.

It sounds very interesting to me to be honest. Many times, i have to look on the right/left to see WHO that person even is. If staff members had colored post background i would immediately know that this is a staff member.

You point out some very good points Timmy. Hiding posts was something I was actually considering posting but I ended up not doing so. Yes, you've understood everything I've been pointing out and I'm very pleased. The background looks really neat.

Everything you said there was correct other than me being Pogosheep0 there. Lmao.

I bumped your thread on hidden posts because I like the idea so much.
Yes, I'm glad you cleared things up. Hope this gets approved.

voted no, you can tell if a mod is a mod.

by ParadiseKid February 17th 2009, 7:20 am

I like this idea in a way. I think that the added color will help members more quickly identify a staff member from the rest of the posters.

I'm going to vote yes on this suggestion as I can see the benefit(s) in having it on our forums.

by Guest February 17th 2009, 11:50 am

It looks neat as well =P

by Tilum May 3rd 2009, 3:28 pm

Love the idea Wink

Bump

by Master Marc May 3rd 2009, 11:44 pm

I voted no.
I agree with Base,and the others who voted no.This has no point at all.

Edit:
My post,voted yes for this if this feature was added

by joshuajared2000 May 7th 2009, 8:22 am

I am Voting yes on this for several Reasons.

I think its wonderful to allow our Admins to "stand out". Sure there are Ranks and images you can use, however This feature is one that many places are also introducing. The Chat service Paltalk now has color coded Back Grounds for their Admins.

This is cutting down on confusion alot. This is also an easy way to make it CLEAR your dealing with an admin you may not know on a forum. There are times even i miss who im talking to , sadly..

I'm glad I have support behind this idea thumleft
