This is an inquiry about how we go about changing the color used for our displayed names.
Or who decides, and/or based on what criteria, what color our displayed names will be when so displayed.
This is not yet to call for the color of my displayed identity to be changed; it is to clarify policy determining such color.

It is based on what usergroup you belong to.....white = High Council, Red = Admins, Salmon = Flight LTs, Blue = Flight Leaders, Yellow = Blackstar Member (completed costume), Orange = Forum User (no completed costume)
One of my projects is to go through and make sure that everyone is in the correct usergroup. IF you are currently in the wrong one, PLEASE let me know ASAP either here or via PM and I will get it corrected.

Based on that list, my name is the wrong color it should be orange.

I will admit that I too wondered about the colored stars myself.

The color of the star has to do with your post count. Every hundred posts or so it changes colour. Between 200 and 500 there are no changes. It tops out with a black star at 5000 posts.
The color of your name is relative to your user group. Blackstar members are organge. Council members are white. Admins are red. Mods are green. Flight Leaders are blue. If you go under members and do a search by group it'll be a tad easier to make sense of.

When does the color and rank change? I show in the default blue and my group/rank is "Colonial". |

That detail too had also always puzzled ME.
Any explanations of IT are welcomed.

Forum users are Light Blue according to the members list.
I think Orange is Flight Lt.
Green is Mod

Everyone - I have not had the chance to go through and make sure that everyone is correct yet.....like I said that is on my list of things to do....please be patient...I have a family and a demanding job that takes a lot of time not to mention this new Diabetes thing I am trying to get a grip on and I will get to it as soon as I can.

No rush Bouri I was just not sure how things are and I understand about the Diabetes too I've had it now for 3 years.
So your list is accurate and when you get the chance you will update.
Thanks for clarifying that Bouri.

I originally inquired about display name color.
Then star numbers and colors became a ground of inquiry too.
Now Sire Monolith Twenty-One has promised to provide a tutorial to clear up the matter.
Awaiting that tutorial will be most difficult indeed.

Wait no longer! I had to wrap my head around how to communicate it all. I really like Proboards but some things are...interesting. lol blackstarsquad.proboards.com/thread/1776/profile-legend-colors-stars-ranksI made some changes. There was some confusion regarding "post rank" and "Squadron Rank" so I made all the post rankings as far away from anything rank related as possible. Post any questions in the other thread so we can direct everyone there! I'm going to lock this one down. I hope this helps! |
