Considering it has only ever turned off modifications within posts, why would you expect it to do otherwise now?

Doesn't really need to. That stuff is a little obnoxious but it's not as bad as each post being a different colour, and that's been resolved.

Do the glows hurt your eyes more than light names on a light background?

You better add an option to ignore staff members before you start that. I am already going to have to ultra ignore Zel, Kill, Shi and Omni. Oh well, I am glad you added ultra ignore before this junk.

Are colors that much of an inconvenience to some of you? They are annoying, but I wouldn't ignore the users.

Don't worry. Mine is most likely going to be gone soon. I THOUGHT I would have a Dark Red background with a normal red text, which looks awesome, by the way (you can put your mouse over my name and it'll show what it should look like), but it made the text blue instead... So, I tried returning it, but it only gave me 50% back, which wasn't enough to change it to another color. Eventually, I'll be back to pure red. :S

I gave everyone who had some a little boost due to the refund issues and adjusted the refund rates based on donor status similar to the way the discounts work.
There is no way to undo an option entirely just yet but you can play with it more now :f3:. Hopefully tomorrow I'll untangle that particular mess.

Oh! Freaking sweet! Thank you, Eos! <3

Now my name looks a lot better. :3

Now only if a black glow were available. I bet that would look good on a lot of colors.

Yep.
The author was not IE friendly. Although it depends on version.

Because you've never donated on this system and you wouldn't have any point balance because for all intents and purposes it was already spent on your current level of donator status.

No one was credited with points for having already been a donor. When it's more stable and works right active donors may receive some spending points.

Hey Eos...
I'm using (on this computer) Firefox 3.0.19, and the glowing aura is altogether invisible. I can see that your username is no longer those bold letters in the boxes and now has a thinner, more streamlined appearance, and I can see that some users names are different colors (khoi/spidey are pink, zel is green, etc). I'll assume the issue is on my end, but what do you think it'd be?

Nope, it's specifically exempt there and "working as intended". There's a list of where it does and doesn't effect. I haven't gotten around to tweaking it.
I'm more concerned with why it jacks up in PM replies.

You heartless bastard making me spend money on orphans instead of eating them and throwing my money on something completely worthless. My post is more serious than you might think however, I would be willing to pay an absurd amount just to ignore one person who just happens to be a staff member.

Too many people don't play any Nexon games, may as well give the choice of something they can use or transfer if they want.
Amazon gift cards and Ultimate Game Cards were also considered.

Actually the flashy glowy thing below avatar is so a malicious user can't pretend to be a mod/admin by manipulation of the username & usertitle.

It would make more sense to implement the ability to "preview". It can't be that difficult and it would make the market system much less intimidating, considering users have no idea what their names/titles will look like until after they buy it. If they don't like it, all they can do is refund it and still end up losing some of their money.

You could've just preview'd it by typing your name in a test message with the options you were considering like this:

How was I supposed to know that I could even do that?

eos please make my glow go away, it is very annoying and ugly. it is the color of peaches and is very fuzzy looking, and being allergic to peaches it's very awkward to browse the forums with a name that holds both peachy and fuzzy characteristics. also, it is so blurry that I cannot even read my own username properly without squinting. this is very unsettling

I'm sure it's just misunderstood.

No one is going to spontaneously die before I find time to add a "remove" system. It's a waste of time I could be devoting to doing that to go in and manually fix everyone who isn't happy.

Maybe you can change the glow to white Greg?

Haven't read the entire thread, or anywhere else on the forum, but have usertitle colours/avatar sizes which were bought beforehand been deleted? I paid $5 for my usertitle colour and now it's gone. Do I get it refunded via Karma, or my usertitle colour re-done. Or is it just... gone?

Not that I'm aware of but then I'm also not entirely clear on what you mean.

Not touching that sort of thing until it's actually stable and working as it should. Think of it as being in beta right now.

Like making the outlines around the words a bit thicker? So instead of seeing a black glow around the word "Khoi", it's just a slight black outline. Hoping this is a better explanation, haha. Kinda rushed what I wanted to state last time.

Not the way it's currently designed. Each glow tag right now requires it's own css element so creating one for every possible width of glow would be nightmarishly annoying.
Even the glow tag couldn't be made to support it easily because as soon as you move into multiple parameters on a bbcode tag you start getting into complex parsing and overrides and exceptions that start to get annoying to code.

Oh ok, thanks for clearing that up a bit. I was never sure if that was even possible, actually learning CSS atm, and I haven't even found a way to make the glow-effect on words yet, haha. Thanks!

You wouldn't really have to make a new class for each possible width of glow. The current glow is pretty much neutral, not too big nor too small, so can stay like that. You'd just have to make 1 new class for the "border" text and place it as a separate option from glow in the market or something.

I haven't worked with CSS in a while, but if you need me to, I can see if I can remember the correct values for making a solid pixel border (probably about 2 pixels thick) over titles rather than a glow.

That is, if you're not opposed to the idea. I don't really mind, just giving my input on it.

Edit:

{text-shadow: -2px 0 black, 0 2px black, 2px 0 black, 0 -2px black}

Something like that, maybe. I haven't tested those values, but I think that's the general idea from what I remember. Kinda like glows, but you're offsetting them by 2 pixels.

The glow itself is a text shadow. You can't overlay two separate text shadows one to control the size and one to control the color. You need a single text shadow that specifies both or the innermost wins.

the market ate it. Until market stops eating things, not putting back more for it to eat. Simple enough now?

Yeah, I know you can't have two separate shadows. It's either glow or border, but you can't have both simultaneously.

How's the code for the glow look? I'm imagining it's something like:

{text-shadow: 0 0 0.2em #(color), 0 0 0.2em #(color)}

Right?
