I cant tell which Comments* are from riot besides the fist. The problem with this is the fist icon is pretty small and on the old forums it was very clear which member worked for riot when they posted due to the rioters name and their profession under their name. Can you guys please do something to make it more clear to which posts are from riot :I pls.

I agree, as a player who isn't colourblind I still have trouble differentiating posts and can totally see where you are coming from.

A suggestion to Riot might be to add a shaded background (of a colour other than red) to their posts which I have seen many other forums on gaming sites use, this makes their post clear and hard to miss. It would technically make the differentiation easier for everyone.

One solution would be to give Rioters some kind of border around their post. Just something easily distinguishable that only relies on shape and not colour.

I like that there are "Riot Comments" on the side of the page. Helps me out (also colorblind, same problem you have)

Xpost from another thread seems more relevant here

I have noticed that my brothers computer has a bit trouble discerning the different posts because his GFXcard and moniter can't show lighter grays and whites clearly. For him the posts all appear white. Riot if you decide to use this direct reply style make sure low end specs can trace the different posts.

Riot posts seem to have a fist next to them? Or am I mistaken?

It would seem you could glance slightly to the left and see a fist and differentiate.

Not only as a color blind person, but also it's nice to see what a red's title is within the company. Riot has always been very community involved, and I feel part of that is the personability that the Reds have with their open interaction. this includes them having a personal icon, in addition to their job title posted up.

I would liek to one up this, simply to know if it's now better for color-blind persons.

You can tell which are Riot posts by which ones have the abnormally high amount of upvotes.

Echoing this. I'm colorblind as well and it's seriously impossible to distinguish right now.
