Things you\'ve always been too embarrased to ask
 
I've wondered this since like 50 posts but from like 0-100 posts you're a troll and from 100+ it's embarrassing... but now the embarrassment level gets higher and higher so I'm finally getting it out of the way:

What the hell do all the name colors mean?
I know...
Green is Moderator
Blue is Book Author?
Red is Administrator?
Black is ?
Maroon (Commodius' color) is ?

Others?

pink = katyseagull

I think it went something like this:

Mat: I want you to mod the Lounge
Katy: I don't want to be one of the greens
Mat: Mkay

Mat proceeds to make her mod and makes her pink instead. The evil genius.

Black: El Diablo forum mod
Blue: Book Author
Maroon: Commodus
Purple: POG monthly champion

The colors besides red and green and the user color aren't hard wired into the software, they can be changed by mods or admins.

So ElD (with all due respect) is just a normal user with a ton of posts? I feel so betrayed! ...or in this case, a mod of his forum I assume as well. But why was the color given?

Why not? The colors are meaningless, just an honorarium.

This is true [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I don't even know if it is the database again, though I recall some problems with it in the past. Just frustrating when we are at a somewhat critical juncture with regs possibly appearing for comment. Given the amount of ad revenue they have presumably lost over the course of the year you would think it would be a no brainer to finally put the nail in the coffin...

nath,

According to your usernotes it was GrannyMae who flipped your avatar. What a weirdo.

Reading Sklansky's stuff in his forum and NVG got my guard up big time. It just seemed so weird that he had to be effing with us. Then I remember Mat posting once in the Lounge that he thought his father was pretty eccentric (or something to that regards, I can find it if anyone cares) and that made me think he may be for real.

I can say that having met Mat a couple of weeks ago that he is definitely a pretty normal, smart cat with a good sense of humor, which should be obvious to anyone who has seen his posts over time. He semi-offered to meet up should I make it to Vegas in the future and I'd definitely take him up on that.

atf regulars should get a special color for all the time we spend giving back to the forums. also, it would alert people in other forums that we are knowledgeable about the inner workings of 2p2 and that the yshould listen to us.

edit: also, there was that period of 2 weeks or so when everyone was allowed to have a colored name. i just remembered that.

That week was hilarious. Everyone was peach, blue, purple and black. First it was people that knew mods/were regs, then it was just "as many as we can do until Mat get's pissed". Fun times
