Suggestion: Make Sans-serif default font

Description

i have gotten at least a dozen replies in various diablo forums saying this exact sentence, "wow that site has tons of great info. too bad its just too hard to read".

i always tell them they can change the font, but they almost never respond back. So as much as i like the awesome nostalgia feeling we get from the diablo font, i think for the sake of new people and readability it should be defaulted to Sans-serif with the option to switch back. Thank you for your time.

People are crazy (but i already knew that)

but I LOVE this Diablo font. It adds to the atmosphere of the site and it was one of the first things I noticed.

I would be curious what screen size + resolution those who find it hard to read are using.

Edit: Maybe having a SUPER VISIBLE ultra ACCESSIBLE quick-switch button in either the header or the footer of the website so it's clear to everyone there are options?

@BMAY I hate the diablo font when viewing the site on my cell phone, and prefer the diablo font when using my desktop PC. I really don't understand it either, but I think there may be something to the screen size & how legible the font is for some reason.
