I'm not sure grey visited links on the forum/wiki is such a good idea.

I don't mean to complain, but have you tried it with different zoom levels ? It's barely distinguishable from regular text. Especially if you're feeling a bit tired or doing a quick read (making them easy to miss). I double checked in Namoroka that visited links are purple, yet for the archlinux.org tree they're grey.

I know it's a simple CSS setting. Is there a way I can overwrite it ?

I have made a personal commitment not to reply in topics that start with a lowercase letter. Proper grammar and punctuation is a sign of respect, and if you do not show any, you will NOT receive any help (at least not from me).

Download Greasemonkey and override the CSS definition..

#brdmain a:visited {
  color: #0f0
}

Discussed at length:

Either choose one of the other themes or use your own (as suggested above).
