If you start a new thread, but decide that you wished you didn't, you could edit the post, then get rid of what you wrote, and replace the title with DELETED (yes, you can do that now). That would make it easy for people to skip over it.

And - does everyone think it's easier to read the type when it is in bold?

    Glad to learn about deletions. For me the bold is a little too much although better than the faded grey we had before they changed it.

    Much easier. We just need a delete option for the whole comment.

    So we have one who likes the bold, and one who doesn't. I'd sure like to see what others think about it. I'm all for doing what most people want..

    I'm sticking with the BOLD. The gray is just too faded. Going with a faded font had to be some six figure executive's decision. Seriously, we're not a bunch of twenty something's on here, what was the thinking? Older people tend to have eye problems and that gray is akin to whispering to a person hard of hearing. Just my thoughts on this.

    I’m not a fan of the bold, but it doesn’t bother me.
