it hurts my eyes. instead, use happier colors and reserve red ink for the mods. green is good, it's positive and it catches attention. blue fits the tl color scheme. yellow and blue is like a dream combo. orange and you can be the golden state warriors. whatever. just stop using red, i always jump a bit when i see red ink.

Mods trying to grab attention from people shouldn't be a bad idea if they are using red ink to direct people to most discussed problems

Yellow actually isn't a very nice color for TL =/
I have always been partial to orange on TL though

I'm fine with every colour used so far: orange, yellow, red, and blue.

I agree that the association of red with mod messages makes it seem unsuitable for most regular text. However, until there's a better way for mod warnings/bans to show up, it's fine. Personally, I'd like to see a more developed and integrated system but I haven't brainstormed ideas yet.

Does anyone else recall that brief period of time when Kennigit had his name listed in hot pink?

I wouldn't call that hot pink, Plexa.

To answer your question: No, I do not. Wasn't the Kennigit vs Yubee Bo50 image pink though?

red is so bad >.< at least when its about temp bans or warnings i dont actually have to read it, and just assume it >.>

can't we just use blue and green, or maybe BLACK?

Pink is bad lol, I had to highlight to see what you wrote. Yellow is hard on the eyes. Orange is strangely nice and the light purple is good too. Strangely those warnings in orange and purple won't have the same effect as red.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt
