Doesn't really bother me, to be honest.

I can see how it would be aggravating for color-blind people though, perhaps they should add an option to set the color as you see fit. I'm guessing that with their stated interest in opening up the forums to free and premium players on a limited basis, the colors are going to serve to differentiate between them and the VIPs.

I suspect that free and premium players will probably be limited to Player Questions and maybe the Archetypes forums, since those are the places most commonly used for asking for help from other players. It would kind of suck to make it so free players can't even ask people for help with something.

If that turns out to be the case, those of us who help people with builds a lot need to refresh ourselves on SO slotted builds. All of our build wizardry will be lost on people who can't use IOs.

I like the goldenrod, myself, but I am sensitive to the colorblind issue so can back an effort to make a change for the greater good.

So, if you want to say good-bye to the Goldrenrod, you have to say good-bye to the reddened names.
Eeew, in-line styles someone needs a slap for that one.

Used a firefox addon to adjust how my browser displays the colors. Goldenrod is now white for me.

I'm fine with the new color. I can read it.
