Script fonts, especially in color and small sizes are VERY hard to read

I have noticed this week that an increasing number of people are using a script font for their posts, and are often selecting a small font size and a color other than black. I understand that the script font is pretty (I personally like things like that, too), but these posts are VERY difficult to read, especially if they are more than just 2 or 3 lines. I have a very hard time getting through them, and know others do as well. If the font size was at least bigger it would help. Not a lot, but a little.

I'm not trying to tell people what font they can and cannot use, just trying to let people know that you may be limiting the number of people who will read your post or reply if you are using them.

Thank you for saying this! I was trying to figure out a way to post the same message. Those script fonts are hard on the eyes!

angry Thank you for putting that out there. I thought it was because I've been using my phone.

And while we're on this type of topic, descriptive subject lines are helpful, too!  Instead of "Help!" it would be nice to know what you need help WITH. That way I don't need to click on the post if I have nothing to offer, and it might catch my attention if I do.
