Do y'all like the bold font, or would you prefer to go back to regular?

I like the regular; regular makes it easier to make something stand out when you want to make something standout by clicking on the B to make it bold. I use reading glasses and the regular is just fine.

So I just noticed that when I typed the "B" above while also trying to make it bold by use of the Bold key, it didn't make it bold. Keep it the way it is imo.

The best thing to do to make some of the posts more readable is to encourage some of the guys to learn to use paragraphs.

Or not use their voice to text function on their phone.

Honestly I like the looks of the regular better but it is a minor preference, I'm not going to complain either way.

One complaint I just noticed. With the old font when you got to the bottom of a multiple page thread the page you were on was in bold and the other pages were not. Now they are all in bold and I can't tell which page I am on. I'm sure that could be fixed without changing the font in the thread for all those who like bold, however.

I like the bold, but the above mentioned will be an inconvenience.

I prefer the original font. The bold is too hard on my eyes.

Mr Paul, will this font later migrate to the whole forum at some point, or is it just for this section ?

I'm just testing it here first. A lot of folks don't like change, so it will have to be overwhelming support for it to be site-wide.

Well I can read both font types easily enough, though I do still like the bold font , though either way is ok for me.

Prefer the original. We do have the ability to enlarge the screen we are viewing which enlarges the lettering.
