Guess I'll start work on a post, not much to go with as most of the group are just standing around waiting for the others to talk.So this post will focus on the Guardsmen and Arbitrator and their deaths.
Or Brick could show off his lewd side and grope the helpless Thrash.
I use the colour function for speech, I don't see anything wrong with it when this is out of necessity.
To those that say nay to colours, I say.
THERE IS NO GOOD REASON TO MAKE A POST MORE TEDIOUS THAN IT NEEDS TO BE. There is nothing worse in Roleplaying than reading a post in monotone where you can't even tell whose dialogue is which. There are those who say that's just making up for lousy writing, but it is these same people whose posts can't point out who is talking. Colours solve that issue in a tetiary way.
I speak through experience, I'm now in a fantasy noir roleplay and BELIEVE ME when I say when we started it was an eyesore to read through dialogue in first persona narrative without colours. Why? Many typed like the entire post was a speech bubble, this is apparently the noir style, but many of us decided we could not stand it anymore so we each picked a colour that best represented our characters and stuck with it during multicharacter posts.
I don't care if my posts look like crayon to certain people, I didn't come here to torture my eyes. I write to inspire, or at least, convey a message. Making readers have myopia is not conducive to my goals.
Hence I VOTE FOR COLOURED SPEECH.
@GodOfWar Just a heads up, you're in the habitation block at the moment, to get to the mechanicum district, you reckon you'd have to go through the large tunnel in a vehicle to get there. Which at the moment is barred by a large gate.
