Text colors in the chatroom

[Myrtonos]

Some posters use the default text colour (as I do) in the chat room, but many others have their own distictive text colours.
Lately one user (male) has copied another female user's trademark text colour, this being quite a feminine colour.
How about the idea of an making it an option for those you use any text colour other than the default to trademark their text colour, as to prevent others from using it. The idea is that, whoever picks a given text colour automatically prevents others from using it unless they tick a box allowing others to use it.

I don't (or rarely) participate in the chat room, but in general I have difficulty reading brightly coloured text colours. The brighter the text, the more difficult it is to read, because it blurs and is uncomfortably bright.

You don't participate in the chat room, I would like to hear from thoso who do.

Surely they could change it very minutely, so tiny a difference it'd be impossible to tell? I don't think it'd change anything if they did this.

If you were to give everybody a personal colour, wouldn't you eventually run out of distinguishable colours or colours that the website supports?

But still, it is distinguishable in a strict sense. If it is even slightly different, fine.

At the moment, not everyone has a personal colour. This is why users would have the option of allowing others to use it.
