One of the main things I try and do is to make all information of one type like the Stat Table or what ever able be seen without scrolling down or to the side.

We have 690px of width to work with before things start to require a scroll bar on the smaller screens like 1280's. This is why the tables are locked at 690px - except the Turret Range Tables ( there are just too many turrets now ). So this limits the amount of space for a single line of data.

It is also a concern about the how much vertical space is used. Same as trying to avoid having to scroll to the side to see all the data I very much try to avoid having to scroll down. Not to mention total page length is always a concern too.

The 16,16,16 Dark Grey background actually helps visibility what causes the eye to be stressed is mostly the cell border lines. This is why I am removing them from the horizontal separation of the cells and replaced them with alternating background. In some cases I make the text Tan also. Also removing the border from all color background cells has made things a lot easier to read.

The SF Stat Tables actually have a lot of horizontal space between data in the columns, a lot more than most tables.

The Text Size has been a nightmare since Wikia made its software adjust the size of text base on screen size. If I were to leave the text normal on large monitors it gets so big that it looks like writing by a kindergartener who's learning to make letters on that huge line paper with the dotted line in the middle of each.

I don't like how the text gets very small on the smaller monitors but when something is not set and is a in flux I had to choose with either very large text on the large monitors or small text on the small monitors .... I went with the one that wont mess with the table width or height between both monitor sizes.

I have thought a LOT about all this over time and sometimes I'm not always happy with how things are but even so its usually the best of my options once all factors are considered. I understand your concerns but if spacing was the only factor it might be easy to fix but since any solution would effect other factors I still think we have the best solution of bad situation.

I don't want to discourage you, because even talking about this and seeing what others would do keeps me always reevaluating.
