really? i thought that the forum used to emphasize the actual content of the post rather than the poster's name and mug... like every other forum out there

maybe its because of the bold orange names that are 2x the size of the content that the poster wants you to actually read breaking up the flow of the conversation

of course, we could all just add this classic animated gif as a background and be distracted from everything....
