      As you may or may not know, there has been a bit of confusion over the color of the member names. So, I'm creating this thread to clarify that issue for our current members, and hopefully save our future members a bit of stress.

      The List:

      –----------------------------------------------------------------------
      Colorless names:

      People with colorless names are basically just regular members; they have access to the basic forums and have basic user accounts.

      Example: Cap'n Carter

      Brown/maroonish names:

      People with brown/maroonish names are senior members; basically, they are members who have been found to be congenial and/or well-liked. Some people become senior members for other reasons, such as being one of the forum founders.

      Example: Miss pirateneko

      Purple names:

      People with purple names are editors; we can edit the main site and update it with information. That's… pretty much it.

      Example: OnePieceLover12

      Green names:

      People with green names are moderators; they can close threads, hand out temporary bans (correct me if I'm wrong), and do various other things like removing offending signatures.

      Example: Miss Carly

      Pink names:

      Those with pink names are fansubbers; they, as their name suggests, provide you with subtitled One Piece episodes.

      Example: KaiserDragon

      Orange names:

      Those with orange names are scanlators; they give you your translated manga.

      Example: kikiboudka

      Gray names:

      Those select few with gray names are administrators; basically, they are the gods of the forums. They can hand out permanent and IP bans, and do all the things a moderator can do (only better). These are the ones to contact about any account issues (altering, activating, etc.).

      Example: oceanizer

      –---------------------------------------------------------------------

      I hope that clears everything up! May I request a sticky (and perhaps a lock, if necessary)?

        I hope our future members really aren't that stupid that they can't figure this out on their own.

            Actually, a relatively new member PMed Takinawa Tonfa and me asking if we were mods just this morning. So no, all of our members might not know this, which is why they now have this list to reference.

              Y'know, you say red names but this is looking more like a brown to me. Unless its one of those fancy-shmancy Crayola colors, i.e. "Burnt Red" 😛

                  There is a reason it had to be posted in here.

                              Whether surprised or not, the confusion about this issue has been long and widespread as many misdirected pms have suggested.

                                There should be a color for people who are well liked but not congenial.

                                    I was the example for the normal members that means I'm the most important one.

                                    People with brown/maroonish names are senior members; basically, they are members who have been found to be congenial and well-liked.

                                            That description of senior members isn't really accurate. XD It's true of some people, but not all.

                                            BTW, one important thing to add is that it's the administrators who need to be contacted about anything having to do with altering/activating accounts.

                                              Neat, I've been wondering about all that, thanks.

                                              How do you do that BTW? is that a new PHBB Feature? I have a Forum where I post my Hellsing scanlations, and I think it'd be neat to impliment such a coloring system, for the Admins at least.

                                                      I always thought the stars below the name explained the rank pretty well.

                                                      I third the motion for rainbow colored unicorn names

                                                          Some people get senior member status regardless of how they behave etc. Those are the one who founded this place. No question asked. (At least that's how I view it.) Gotta respect people who spent their time founding this place 🙂

                                                              I was on it on one of the last boards, and it was pretty much just a place for nerds to cry about not having girlfriends. And with some of the senior members around now I imagine there's also frequent man-trains and circle jerks.

                                                              the bigot who thinks being an asshole is actually worth shit

                                                                Perhaps a more accurate description for senior members is, "Those who seem trustworthy." The senior members discussion can get pretty personal. These such discussions don't need to be made known public amoung the normal members.
