Button Colors Redux

A nice idea from Khandita was posted here:

Thread 196502

khandita suggested a different button color for wins rather than the same red color that also appears when one loses. Cool idea. Maybe a bright celebratory yellow? If that's too loud some nice shade of blue.

Or...perhaps an option so players can select the win/loss colors themselves?

This comes up so frequently, I will take another look at it.

Not for the next release though, as I want to limit changes like this to avoid additional potential confusion on top of the other changes.

Of course offering soem schemes could reduce confusion and still give the opportunity to choose.

Personally, I don't think this is necessary.
I have separate folders for wins ,draws and losses in all categories(tournaments, clans etc)making the background colour irrelevant.
What would be an improvement is listing the games with the latest at the top instead oldest at the top and then in chronological order.
However, I look in these folders so infrequently it's not that much of an inconvenience for Russ to spend time on

A feature doesn't need to be "necessary" to be an improvement.

The ability to like or dislike posts isn't "necessary" since you can type your opinion. Emojis aren't "necessary", nor is imbedding YouTube links, or the ability to italicize, underline, bold, etc.

A clear visual distinction between whether you've lost or won a game isn't "necessary" but can be a useful feature.

O.K
That's a reasonable argument.
Perhaps necessary is the wrong word.
Do you think it's enough of an improvement for Russ to spend time on?
He says it comes up often so maybe it is.
I agree with you about the thumbs by the way,
Definitely NOT necessary in my opinion.
I stress this is only my opinion.
I know others take a different view

Russ is an adult who I'm sure is capable of deciding that for himself.

The question was do YOU think it is worth Russ spending time on
