Not really, it's not like Terry is the first (or last) person to make use of fonts and colors. GH.com is probably one of the only messageboards I've ever used that lets you change the color of the text displayed and one of only a few that lets you alter the font size and face. A lot of other messageboards let you customize what you want all posts to show up as, so you can specify your own font size and font face to ensure good readability on your own monitor.

I've noticed many times some posts show up in a font size one range larger or smaller than the rest, probably without the person making the post realizing that they've changed fonts at all. All of that could be eliminated in favor of consistent readability if every post is displayed with the font face and size specified in your own control panel.
