INTP forum compared to other forums

[bokehgirl91]

I know this is random but I've just noticed out of the other MBTI personality forums so far that I've seen the INTP one is darker visually. I'm sure I'm not the first to notice

I was feeling a little at home myself. -grayman

Started playing with the other colour schemes and they all seem so garish and ugly, except for dark castle...

you can change it to not wrong by changing one of the things in the change thing.

these days the insufferable black shit is just a "oops you wanna log in bro" reminder to me.

I like the compact size of the default but I don't like the colours. I wish I could change the colours while keeping the proportions of the default.

Black is easy on the eyes. Cuts down on the blue light at night.

dark castle is why i write here

I expected a threat about posting/interaction style, amount of new posts per day, structure, etc.

I do like the default theme. It's welcoming.

The forum's subdued colors don't hurt my eyes.

maybe i'm wrong about what's the better choice. it boils down to two factors:

1. innate perception psychology and optical ergonomics. i have the idea, impression or habit that darker things are more readily discerned as foreground, object of focus and interest. maybe it's about daylight as basic condition for visual input, with more complex and dynamic objects typically assuming darker shaded hues against the background canvas of sky, field, desert, etc.

2. to the contrary, it makes sense that a screen should light up the important details rather than background static. this efficiency concern goes beyond simple economy, since it potentially connects with more future-proof perceptual heuristics. on the other hand the very paradigm of important details relies on the archaic innate perceptual heuristics. what, other than adherence to norms of vast boring geographical areas, stops us from making everything important?

my Ji-Ne prefers trailing off into some obscure navelgazing spiral of shame and guilt to reaching a firm and operationally viable conclusion on the matter. self-mockery prevails.
