    It's a temporary change to reflect Halloween.

    It is a temp change, but I'll pass this up so the team is aware.

    First of all, I want to apologize. I think this is an excellent consideration, and one I will gladly discuss with the team.

    Please send me a DM on Discord (or here) if you'd like to discuss further. I'm happy to help.

    Its only a fun thing Kixs has done for Halloween.  It'll go back to normal soon.  Kinda like the loch ness monster swimming through our base during April Fools day.  You say 1 in 3 males suffer from not being able to see red or green?  I have met 1000's of males in my lifetime and so far none have this problem.

    I did a quick google search and it's not quite that many. Red-green color vision defects are the most common form of color vision deficiency. This condition affects males much more often than females. Among populations with Northern European ancestry, it occurs in about 1 in 12 males and 1 in 200 females.Aug 18, 2020
