New Forum font is too small and bold

Ctrl mouse wheel Zoom ≠ Font Size.

Correcto.

Same. :raised_hand:

Have you ever read the history of the Wingdings font?

I was curious one day why it was created in the first place.

I noticed that as well, I went in and upped the front size to 110%. I needed to do it anyhow, my aging eyes are starting to find most page types a bit small. I realised they had changed stuff because the “x replies” was in bold and I didn’t recall that being so before. Along with the number of likes being bolder as well.

If they have time for these unnecessary adjustments, how about adding in something useful, like being able to see the originating date of a post on the front page so we don’t bother replying to necro’d ones.

Adding a mute thread option to the thread listing so I don’t have to go into threads to hide them :smiley:

Good idea, I can hide those "Forsaken Love Thread"s. Not that there really are any of them, but just on the offchance… :wink:

PS: I just realised, the little icon on the task bar for the Launcher has been changed.

The “Tiny Little Changes for No Real Purpose” team at Blizzard have been busy bees…

I enlarged the font and it’s still giving me a headache. Sigh. I really enjoyed these forums. Reddit, here I come.

Hmmmmm…can’t say I’m much of a fan, particularly since it at least seems smaller and fuzzier.

Guess I got hit up the optometrist in Thunderbluff to upgrade these glasses.

/moo :cow:

It’s definitely fuzzy. I only like fuzz on cats.

Blizzard, please revert to old font. Ty and 'bye.

The fact that I could read both of these scares me.

Have I eaten too many carrots!? Did I eat nuclear waste? WHAT’S!? HAPPENING!?

Diablo forums got hit by the stubby font monster too! :rofl:

So they did change it, I thought it was my browser. I don’t like this change, its hurting my eyes. Hope they change it back.

I am glad that it’s not just me. I logged onto the forums and the first thing I thought was, crap what did I do now lol. :smile: :+1:

Another vote for eye strain. I get that I don’t like the new font - that’s natural to resist change, but I’m honestly struggling to read it. That’s not normal.

Let’s hope it was an unintended change that slipped in with a standard update from the forum software company that unfortunately won the Blizzard contract. :confused:

Yeah, I hate the font type and the size. Change it back.

I feel like this company hired saboteurs to bork their game AND the forums.
