Quote (Sweetpea @ Feb. 13 2008, 05:00) | Say, that purple posting thing is a nifty trick, Korgscrew. Now that this topic has been officialized, I sorta wish I'd displayed a more suitable sobriety. |
We thought the different color was necessary to show that the message is not really part of the discussion and is actually the message shown on the front page. Another option would have been to pre-date it so it would appear first, but then the 2nd message would seem weird, somewhat repeating what the "official" message says. And yet another option would be to keep 2 different threads. In a perfect world, tubular.net admins would always be the first to bring the news to the forums.
