Title: MiT Colours?
Post by: Bawfle on January 08, 2020, 11:55:15 pm
This isn't a majorly important discussion, but it's a discussion nevertheless ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I want to get your thoughts on what your personal thoughts are of the 'new' MiT (Moderator in Training) colours that changed from yellow/green to red/orange several Months back.

It's been on my mind for quite some time, but I'm wondering what goes through everyone else's mind when it comes to this as well.

Does it make you uncomfortable (OCD)?

Does it make less sense than it did before?

Does it look nice to you? Does it look bad to you?

What does it do to you?

From what I know from a past conversation with Raz is that the colour got changed because of how similar the MiT (Moderator in Training) colour and MotS (Member of the Season) colour looked compared in contrast to one another. However, from where I stand, I feel like the new change looks much too similar to the Global Mod colour now which, I think is probably worse. (Not to sound dramatic, that's just where I stand when I see this change).

I've taken into account that different monitor screens show different contrasts, hues and what have you, however, I feel if anything the MiT colour could have just been made more yellow in order to not bluntly disrupt the smooth contrast between staff roles? A lot may know this already, but I heavily care about presentation and how it comes across etc... but are you the same? Here's a couple of examples of what I mean:

I have considered blues, but I honestly think shades such as blues/purples should be left for development teams if they were to ever be created in future. But for now, on this topic alone, what are your thoughts? Should staff revert back to the smooth transition of colours they had before with the more yellow contrast as a replacement for MiT's? Or does it not bother you as much? Be honest! It's okay to be picky xD

Thanks guys! Please keep this friendly!

I agree this one makes it more apparent. I recall it being yellow for a time then Raz changing it again cause of the Member of the Season coloring looking too similar. (Probably the shades back then were to similar) Looking at it here though the colors don’t really look that similar to me. At least these shades of lime and yellow don’t blend that much so I can see those working nicely. I wouldn’t mind it being this version unless folks start thinking they look to similar if implemented again.

Guess we’ll see what others think first. Thank you for your suggestion.

@Polyphonic If someone's asking for an open thought/opinion, then everyone has a say! However, the ability to change things like this all depends on staff. All we can do is provide our opinions and fair arguments, judgements, and influence.

@LordSuragaha Thank you for your input and response. <:

Honestly the color change surprised me too. I agree, it needs to go back to being yellow, and the colors here blend well without being too similar

100% agree, they're very similar. Would love if the colours could go back to how they originally were.

I think the new red-orange color is a way to mess with everyone. It's a terrible color. Would definitely be better to change it back.

By the power of magic the MIT’s colors have been changed. Thank you all for your valuable feedback!

I also managed to not break anything :)
