I read this interesting article on the cultural history of colour recently. Apparently even in the west, pink was considered a decidedly manly colour, as recently as the early 20th century.

In clothing, pink was considered far too strong and flashy for the appropriately demure woman to wear.

interesting, so it's a post WWII, jingoistic, McCarthyism era prejudice........

I mean, I avoid it because it doesn't go well with red hair (wish more women would figure this out) but I have a friend of persian descent, who often wears pink shirts with a dove grey suit...and the ladies swoon.

Just Because the topic doesn't interest you, doesn't matter. Easy answer? Don't read it.

But the topic do interest me, i very much love customizing my mech with colors and pattern and we could use more.
When people asked for more weapon i expressed concern about the loss of asymmetry and the loss of many weapon becoming obsolete as a result and that i had the choice already. Now that you pointed to us that we already had a small limited choice, tell us your concern about having more pink, more yellows and more any colors into the game and how changing the value of a color would negatively impact the game.

MWO customisation has spoiled me. Im in Elite right now and their basic, archaic, halfassed customisation model drives me mad everytime im reminded is exist.

Excellent.

BTW, can we please cut down on the amount of blacks and whites we have? Different shades of grey are fine (As long as its less than 50), but we dont need 4 whites and 5 blacks that are exactly the same except for the house that patented it.

I am very down with that.

As far as paints go...if it's good enough for Crayola, we shoudl have it here.

Including metallics, and Chrome.
