Look of the forum

I'd like the option for different coloured themes, but apart from that keep it the same.

I don't like change.

Just use whatever CSS you like through stylish?

I've not had a blue forum for years!

I love the simplicity, I love the colour scheme and I love the way it works perfectly on mobile devices. No change is required.

I really don't get the desire to be notified when somebody quotes you, why would you care?

If you're being asked a direct question. Maybe not so much in GD, but in the more technical forums where someone's knowledge/experience is being requested. It has happened many times where someone has quoted me asking a question and I have not realised until days later.

Not a fan of the fonts though, huh?

That actually makes a bit of sense. Not for GD because we're all drooling cretins who would do anything to have a reminder that someone quoted us but for the forums where people actually do something worthwhile and useful? Yes, I can see that being a good idea.

It could do with a few plugins to bring to the more modern forum age but aside from that I prefer OCUK forum due to it being simple at heart.

It's nice, simple and clear. No more needs to be said.

With the "captain of anime club" sig, I'm not sure if you're joking.

I hope you are, I recently joined that site and it's terrible.

Filled with stupid girls posting pictures of their **** (Really? Who is stupid enough?), atheists engaging in a circle jerks, same regurgitated ****e, add a few pictures of cats + dogs, a few memes of no relevance and which invariably panders to the common consensus (though they are trying so painfully to be unique). Oh and the comments are nearly laughably similar in every thread.

I'll sum it up as a place for lower to middle class white boys who want to appear intelligent, free thinking and persecuted.

God I hate that place.

Someone only visited the front page then

Works well: check
Is fast on any system: check
Best colour scheme*: check

nothing to upgrade

*white text one blue background is the best combination for reading on a monitor, hence why all word processors used to use it and Word still has the option.

That's usually punishment enough for most non Fedora-wearing asshats.

No. The white on blue theme is the forums identity. It's gentle on the eyes and easy to read.
