The whole board caters to them. It's a major recreational pastime here. We might even be said to be trolling for trolls sometimes. I don't think it matters much what color to use.

I think that if the most important thing under discussion after the move is the colour, I think it means that a good job was done.

Now I'm looking forward to the upgrading of the forum software. That's going to be an interesting change.

I thought forcing the use of Comic Sans would be amusing

If there are suggestions for changes/improvements to the running of the forum, can I suggest you start a thread with the suggestions so they can be discussed?
