The contrast is very high indeed as I see it. The cyan text is the most readable text on the screen. I think the problem is that the forums have two viewing options - one light, the other dark (the dark one is the default). If you're using the non-default light version, cyan will look low-contrast. Somehow I don't think Jaesen can mandate what viewing options folks will choose, and if he had chosen a darker text the folks who use the default viewing option would be struggling to see it.
