Wonder what the different-colored names mean? This is for you!

So with the changes to the forum lately I though I'd give you this crash course in forum name markup (maybe I'll edit in some visual aides later, but for now pure text is just gonna have to suffice ):

• The vast majority of our members have their name in TEAL, i.e. the same color as the general text (when using other forum skins this color may change).
• Admins, such as myself, are BLUE.
• At GWO we only have "super moderators", i.e. all our moderators can pitch in in a pinch in all forums even though they have their own forums to play around in. Mods are GREEN.
• Then we have our Content team, the people who bring you all the... well.. content! They are ORANGE.
• PALs, i.e. people who have done us a solid and pitched in for the running costs of this place (), are PURPLE. They also have a neato GW2 Karma triangle to match.
• Employees with ArenaNet are RED.

Then we have some titles (the little text that goes underneath your name).

Most of them should be self explanatory, the only one that might not be is that all our FANtastic fansite friends have the name of their GW2 fansite in red in their title bar.

Oh, and people in the Guilds here at the site get their Guild membership as a title.

Finally, A lot of people are in two or more of these groups. Admins and Mods are always Blue or Green respectively. Content Team and Pals can self choose which color to be.

Think that was all.

I'm purple!?! I thought I'd be orange given that I have more posts than anyone else on this site! Hahah. Too bad I can't be green, that's my favorite color.

@Alaris. You can be orange if you want to. Just choose "Content Team" in your settings. You'll lose the Karma symbol though.

Thanks Gorani for pointing out my failure to read ;)

Oh but now I lose my karma. Hmmmm, decisions, decisions.

I'm an undercover content provider.

Because I'm the content provider GWO deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So you'll teal me. Because I can take it. Because I'm not our content provider. I'm a silent troll, a watchful +1er. Art Y Mori! *Cue epic music*

Shouldn't the forum troublemakers get a unique color too? Maybe a pink name for them. But then again, I'm not sure how many people would fit in that category...but there are two in Dii!

Cool on the colors though. I noticed the purple names, but I didn't see the karma icon...it only showed up as a broken image.

I like this plan, cause I'd totally be one.
Also I'm a blog champion, there should be a color for that too.

Actually just set each letter of my name a different color, and I'll put my Rainbow Dash avatar back.
Now that'd be pro.

I didn't want to name names, but yes, you were one I was referring to , with the other being Alaris (the biggest troublemaker of all!)

Ironically, I was going to suggest rainbow names for troublemakers, but then I thought pink would be better, haha.

No no no, you got it all wrong. I am not a troublemaker. I am a troublefinisher.
