she did not just make a username color thread
 
Yes she did. Just for fun! (8

So if you would be the one to decide rank colors on PC, what colors would you pick? Different shades to try and keep some kind of nice scheme, or as screamingly different colors as possible to make them easy to recognize? Everybody simply pink? Let's just skip colors alltogether? Should Platinum rank be Rainbow rank?

yes platinum rank should be rainbow rank!

For reference, these are the current ranks and colors:

[tier=t3]Crystal[/tier]
[tier=t2]Gold[/tier]

I used to have a rainbow username. life was better back then.

Hey staff I would totally dish out the extra dough for custom username colors, or at least Platinum Rainbow rank. :seduce:

I actually like the crystal tier color, it's one of my favorite shades of blue! Although I wouldn't be opposed to the pink color Ludger had recently.

I'll think of more colors I'd like when I'm not on my phone \o/

That's your opinion (: Having a bold/italic name is a sort of staff/supporter perk and having a colored name looks nice imo. We care a lot about appearances on PC, just look at people's extravagant signatures and matching avatars and usertitles. It's a very fun part of PC compared to many other discussion boards on the web from what I've seen. That we can customize and express ourselves so much~

The issue is... how will supporters be represented? Or are they gonna be left on the same tier as a normal user and simply go unformatted...

I do like Rika's choice of colours though, they look so beautiful and unique.

Oh my god I want these colors so badly for some reason and I don't know why.

They're like, the perfect rainbow of pastel colors ahhhh.
And they're so easy on the eyes, too.

I agree. I know there was a forum that at some point used blue, pink and purple for its staff colours, so that likely explains it.

I am loving these colours, tbh. I'd love the ability to change the colour of my name so I could always have it matching whatever theme I'm currently using (like right now... pink!).

Klippy March 28th, 2016 5:09 PM

I was pushing for seasonal colors for all the ranks (supps included) awhile ago. I just am fond of the idea. Rika's colors there are amahzing for Springtime. :)

esperance March 28th, 2016 8:29 PM

Bring back supporter green please.

For those that didn't know about it ;)

I think the colors are actually one of the more well-chosen things here. But I'd probably consolidate the Admin and Founder colors into one. That reddish color since that screams "power" in my opinion. (And in most places I see, the Founder is usually also an admin with no special distinctions. Of course, since they are the almighty God of this forum, I can understand why they'd want a special color.) I'd also give Social Media and Battle Server the same color. Greenish.

Now that we've eliminated purple, I'd probably give the Crystal supports the shade of purple that belonged to the Social Media people. This would distinguish them better from the mods, as I found myself getting VERY confused about them and normal mods when I first joined.

Consolidating Arylett go!

I quite like the simplicity of this tbh. It's easily recognizable without being too overbearing and bold. I don't hate username colors as they are right now but this is a cute alternative :)

...I only want a pink name more

Maybe that's why I always get confused for a mod sometimes... but I feel like the current blue is much lighter than the mod blue so it does still have distinction, but purple would not suit me since my Oshawott avatars won't like it.
