Hi,

That's Webster's definition.

I was not trying to be funny.


And do you really need to change the font size on every one of your posts?
It's annoying.
No one else does it.
It unfairly draws attention away from the rest of the entries.

Actually, I was talking about the last comment that I put in bold. ( I thought that was cute) But, since I annoy you, don't worry I won't be quoting you anymore.  Is there a rule that I can not make my font bigger? What is the problem?

[Beloved Servant]

That's Webster's definition.
I did not simply make it up and insert it in there for fun.

Ok, I was wrong. Hope you have a good night... :thumbsup:

[Beloved Servant]

I do not think there are any rules other than civility and decorum.

The large font on every post is annoying.
No one else does it.

Well, I am not everyone else. I think I have the right to choose to make my font the size I want. I can see if it was 24 or 36 point, that is totally out of the way.  I don't think you get to tell me what size to make my font, sorry. Unless I have broken a rule I will leave it as such. I mean really, what is your problem?  :dontknow:

I never made mention that quoting me was annoying, no, it's the font size.
Maybe you should go back and read the chain of events.

Chain of events? Why do you feel you get to tell me what size font I should use and then just be totally rude about it?

You see, that's the funny part!
You say that 24 or 36 is "totally out of the way."
But your font choice is not.

Perhaps, to others it is!
Do you care about the feelings of others Heresy?

[Beloved Servant]

I'm not telling you to do anything, HERESY.

I asked you!

Maybe you should go back, again, and read the chain of events.

[The Beautiful Heresy]

Of course I do, but I don't plan to be manipulated into changing my 'font' size. This has nothing to do with feelings and more like something else going on, seriously, it is just a font. What really is the issue? You have totally come at me the wrong way and somehow expect me to jump to appease you. Honestly, you are out of line. No, I am not changing my font unless I am forced to. Maybe you need to report me for using a large font and then perhaps you can get your way.

[jabcat]

What's got this interaction off on the wrong foot?  I've been watching this today, and honestly, I think there's been some sort of misunderstanding.

[The Beautiful Heresy]

I am not sure, I was minding my own business and trying to be friendly. Apparently my font size is too big and I should change it.

[Beloved Servant]

No one is trying to manipulate you, Heresy.
I was a simple request.

[jabcat]

Well, let's try to keep from having to cut this baby in half then.

I guess BServ has a right to mention a font size and make a request.  It's not the first time someone's posting style was annoying to another member and a request was made for it to be altered.

On the other hand, I guess TBH has the right to use a slightly unusual font size, as long as it's not something so extreme that it damages the boards somehow, uses up too much space, etc.

So why don't we sort of start over here.  As long as someone's not continually breaking forum guidelines and/or specific requests/requirements made to them by the mods/admin, maybe we can either cut each other some slack, or just simply ignore another's posts if they are personally unpalatable somehow. 

Seems like there are more important things to talk about.   :2c:

Oh, and I don't think I said "welcome", TBH.  Welcome.

Hi Beloved Servant,

I don't mean to interfeer but where is the large font?  :dontknow:
I have looked at every post in this thread and I don't see any large font except what you wrote above.  Beautiful Heresy's post doesn't look bolded but I don't see any words that are large, unless someone has changed it. Are you sure it isn't your font size that has been changed somehow on your computer? I thought maybe this large font was something you could see that others couldn't?

CHB

[Beloved Servant]

Hi CHB,
Every single Heresy post has the font enlarged.
Ask her yourself if you do not believe me.
