Think of it like a video game, which often gives people surprises by unlocking the hidden feature based on unclear conditions. I was really impressed was I discovered it for the first time. This feature is more of a Easter egg than a practical option.
If you really NEED to change the color, you can simply load a custom CSS in your web browser.
- dang 8y agoMaybe we should add another. Any ideas?
- segfaultbuserr 8y agoWe really should have more Easter eggs. I was disappointed that nothing unusual happened to my "past-life account" with 1000+ karma.
- kirubakaran 8y agoIt would be awesome to be able to see the up and down vote counts on comments. If you think showing that might adversely affect HN, you could make that super exclusive, like requiring over 10k in karma ;)
- jedieaston 8y agoMaybe top 5 users (by karma count) get to change their username color? Would be another meaningless change on theme.
- tptacek 8y agoPlease no. Didn't pg try something like this once?
- dang 8y agoI vaguely remember that, and that it lasted extremely briefly.
- patio11 8y agoI think those of us in top 5 auto-stigmatize about that fact enough without needing an explicit caste system, which are _impossible to make meaningless_.
- wtmt 8y agoEnhance/increase the font size, the size of the voting buttons, the gap between the voting buttons, and the size of the collapse buttons for users who have more than 50 karma (they must have perseverance and patience to stick around, so why not reward them)? I really find the usability of these very difficult and hit the wrong one many a times. Simplicity is nice, but going through HN comments and acting on them is painful, more so on touchscreen devices.
