No offence, but both the color and size is annoying. It is as if you are angrily shouting all the time Wink

Font colour and font size do not bother me at all. On the other hand, typing “u” for “you” does!

Sorry, but I always like to see proper spelling and grammar being used – although I know that English is not the first language of some people. Still, the fact that English is not their first language does not give them any excuse whatsoever to be slipshod when they write in English! In particular, chatspeak abbreviations are not a substitution for proper, acceptable spelling.

Given that wink at the end I'm not sure if you meant that "It is as if you are angrily shouting all the time" or not, but in any case I'd like to point out that those particular size and color choices for the font is only representative of 'angrily shouting' if one allows it to be. I understand how it'd be seen that way, but that concept of larger red font representing shouting is just sort of an internet trend and doesn't necessarily have any bearing. (not trying to make a big deal out of it, just pointing out that it's interesting how internet trends affect things...)
