Forum Suggestions -- Widen and New Font

Please refer to the example above. The font is terrible in distinguishing "a" from "o", where the o has a pixel missing on each of the right most corners.
Please also increase the width of these columns. You can't tell what day it was when someone made a post, nor who it was that last posted except for their first 3-4 letters in the name.
Using these CSS changes, I can produce this:
div.col-lg-9 {
width:100%; /*Default is 75%*/
}
.Section-warrock .Item .Title {
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; /*Default is "Rajdhani", sans-serif*/
font-size: 13px; /*Default is 12px*/
}
7 lines is all it takes to change this to a more readable forum. Further changes can be made to tighten up the two columns with the view and reply counts, creating more space for the other columns:
div.col-lg-9 {
width:100%; /*Default is 75%*/
}
.Section-warrock .Item .Title {
font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif; /*Default is "Rajdhani", sans-serif*/
font-size: 13px; /*Default is 12px*/
}
.BigCount {
width: 7%;
}
.BlockColumn-User {
width: 22%;
}
Just 6 more lines of code, and we're looking classy.
The overall width stuff can change too, make the forums wider and fix on my widescreen HD monitor (which the majority of PC gamers have... so why not use a little bit of that space?)
Much needed features on a forum
- A spoiler tag or otherwise collapsible element.
- More flexible tabling.
- Not being forced to sign out.
- Quoting buttons.

Wanted to say that line 4 of my suggested CSS code be changed to .Section-warrock .Item .Title, .Section-warrock .Item-Body .Message {
so that text inside of post bodies matches this easier to read font.
