AIBU?

To ask why the OP posts keep changing colour?!

They were always blue. I could scan through a thread quickly looking for the blue posts if I wanted OP updates.

Then they went pink about a week ago. Was confused but okay.

Today they're green?!

I don't understand. I've probably missed the thread explaining it but please someone tell me why?!

I was wondering this too. OP posts were always green on my laptop. MNHQ posts appear in blue. Yesterday the OP posts went pink and they are still pink today. My own posts haven't changed colour.

My post is now also green, though I didn't start a thread in the pink phase to test it! MNHQ are still blue I think Confused

This green colour is giving me a headache to be honest. The pink wasn't too bad but original was better!

I changed OP posts to forest green and my posts to pink and now OP posts are light green and mine are light pink but a couple of times they've swapped. I thought it was my phone being weird!

I noticed a couple of days ago on the mobile site that my post was green, and now the OP posts are green. On the desktop site the OP's posts are still purple.

Weird - I had noticed, and see OP posts on a pale orange / pink (tan?) background.

DadDadDad · 26/10/2016 18:26

My own posts are on purple, as normal.

My posts and op posts are now different colours between the mobile site, desktop AND iPad! Confused

Glad it's not just me at least!! How odd that's it not actually intentional then! I thought there would be some kind of reasoning to it.

I never had any colours in subsequent posts from OP. Always found it really irritating as I had to look closely for updates. Is there something I need to do on the settings?

Mine have gone all peach colour; used to be green.

Enkopkaffetak ...cick on the down arrow, next to TALK and then customise...you an choose colours.

Mine changed to green on and off yesterday and then I went in to change it to pink (op) and lavender (me)

makes it much easier to follow a thread.

I've seen a few threads like this... Tried clicking on customize, but no option for colours appears?! Sad

I know you can reset them as you want them but am wondering why it's happening hoping we're not having another security blip

outnumbered You have to be on desktop for colour options to appear so either go on a computer and change it, or go back into customise while on your phone and scroll down to where it says 'desktop version' at the bottom!

Jennifer Don't worry it is MNHQ faffing about with them, there is a thread in site stuff.
