This thread is for discussing recent bans. Don't discuss other topics here.

Take it to website feedback if you disagree with a ban or want to raise an issue.

Keep it civil.

If you want to guarantee an answer from a mod I'd make a thread in the Website feedback section. Some Mods check here so this might work, but they would prefer that.

It's not that important question to know and if it's missed it's missed, that's why I didn't take it into the feedback section

Probably because that's the way it got programmed and they figured most people would just follow a basic rule? Dunno. This was something from the early days of TL and most people don't use red text after they are told it's main purpose. Also, guessing it's hard to limit it to staff only since it's BBcode and all.

Is it written anywhere as a basic rule? I can understand that you would want red colour to be reserved for mods only, but it came as a suprise to me that it is something that is enforced. But I suppose it has to be.

I've used red text dozens of times in the last few years.

Tbh I don't think any mod (except for BigFan) gives warnings for red text. Everyone else only gives warnings for imitating mod text and so on, so the vast vast majority of user wouldn't know the rule about not using red text.

Ah, sorry, did forget or miss the rule. Thanks for the answer!

We've always warned for impersonating moderation text. It's really not a big deal. We don't hold it against anyone in their mod notes or anything like that.

Yes, I'm sure there are instances where we overlooked it or didn't see it, but in general red text is reserved for mod actions and we had confusion about this in the past. No big deal

I didn't see anything that was over the line from you in that MacSed thread. That thread is an emotional thread after all since it's a heavy topic. Of course, containing your emotions and aiming to post rationally is always a good thing. IMO, if a subject is getting really emotional, taking a step back is a good idea.

As for the red text, much like KBB mentioned, it's not a major thing. I guess it's like an unwritten rule which is why yourself and other posters were unaware of it. No need to apologize either since this isn't really a major infraction, thus it was a simple warning.

Red text is allowed. Mimicking mod statements is not allowed. I hope that clears up any confusion.

There definitely needs to be support for invisitext though. That's the most important staple of coloured text.
