it reminds me of the AOL 2.5 days... chat rooms with people who are just learning the internet thinking they are being cool by writing in colors when in fact it is just annoying and hard to read....

Is this good ?

Much better.... or should I write it like this...

Yup, Amman, Jordan (Middle East)

As a software engineer, you should understand the need for standards.

And left-aligned text is the de facto standard for the body of textual correspondence, at least in the Western world.

Centered text is more standard for Page Titles and occasionally, section titles. Being different from the format of the body of the text helps it to stand out more. Using centered text for the body of something can be good for effect. But if you center everything, it loses that effect.

Whether there is any real reason why left-aligned text is "better", or even "better-suited" for body text or not, it is what our minds are trained to expect (from a lifetime of reading), and is thus probably easier for our minds to process.

Having one's own "style" of posting format has its merits. It can make one's posts immediately-recognizable as yours, to long-time users of the site.

But if one's "style" of posting format is one that makes the post more difficult to read...

I think it defeats the purpose of posting, which is: communication.

...that conversation was finished 4 days ago... But thank you for reiterating what we learned in 4th grade.

Thanks for the long lecture
I think I already changed the way I post in these forums

and by the way
being a software engineer drives me to stay away from STANDARDS
Because it kills creativity & productivity
In the world of software engineering .... Creativity is the key

I was not aware that UC conversations "expired", and that adding to them after Russell deems them expired was discouraged. My bad.

But thank you for reiterating what we learned in 4th grade.

Evidently, not all of us learned it, but thanks for the snide comment. Wrong side of bed today?

back on topic of selling The Blue Crown Luxury deck.....

By all means.

Ibrahimjaber, sorry for the derailment, the thread is all yours. - UC STAFF

Congrats on the sale!

By the way, this seems as good a place as any to ask:

What is special about the Crown decks?

Do they have custom courts?
