View Full Version : What's up with the username colors?

Look to the left. It's pretty self explanatory. I'd thought I'd report this if an administrator or moderator didn't see it.

I actually like the color on my name. It looks... sexy.

EDIT: BTW, this appears to only happen on the "Dreamcast User" user title, which doesn't show because of my custom one.

EDIT:2 Wah. It was cool while it lasted, LOL.

Did you take a screenshot? I missed it.

No, I suppose I could re-create it by editing the HTML of the page though.

It was pink?

ExcruciationX

No, it was this color (luckily I had a cached copy):

Haha! I was trying to add colors to the different custom usergroups (Dreamcast User, PS3 User, XBOX 360 User) but it was only showing up in the usernames (which I didn't want).

And yeah, I was testing it on the Dreamcast User usergroup (as I told some in the IRC channel).

ExcruciationX
June 20th, 2008, 01:39
Were you trying to test them?

It doesn't make sense to me to have colors for different groups (because this leaves few colors for the staff to use, and the staff's user titles would not pop as well with all that extra color).

I should get my own color (Red?) for being DCEmu's Taco Dispenser for over 7 months

Yah think? :p

Eviltaco64

Where did you get that conclusion?

I got it when I realized that tacos are edible, composed of multiple foods from the food chain, and delicious! Are aliens edible, composed of multiple foods from the food chain, and (if edible) delicous? I THINK (for the most part) NOT.

ExcruciationX
June 20th, 2008, 02:13
Can tacos pilot a flying saucer? I THINK (for the most part) NOT.

Eviltaco64
June 20th, 2008, 02:20
Well, I cant argue with that one. But some flying saucers could be modeled after tacos, as they're highly respected by aliens.

No, I was trying to change only the color of the part that says "Dreamcast User." I'm not trying to add color to the username field like how it appears for the mods & admins.

But I have better tactics than you:

_ Trying to hard
_ Acting like a retard
_ Being unfunny
_ Trolling

I want pink color! It's my favorite color :(

Very true, but I'm active enough :P

Even if I'm not "elite" enough to get one, there are a lot of others (like you for one) that deserve one.

Once the option to have custom user titles is enabled in your user account, you'll be able to change your rank to what you'd like at any time.

Mark30001
June 20th, 2008, 21:09
Of course you'll receive a belt spanking if you dare change it to something like Admin or Staff.

How can I get a custom user title? :(

Please Mark, you know perfectly you're my hero. I will pay you :(

Yeah. Best not be too hard on the spanking though, it tends to "turn people on". :P

It wouldn't work on me.

:rofl:

I tried the word "Admin" but it just censors it. I was going to put "Just to Make Mark Mad: Admin."

Go into your User CP and hit Edit Profile.

And see if you have the option to change it.

@kcajblue, if you can't see the option to change custom user titles, prehaps ask an admin to turn in on for you.

Shrygue

Well, the custom user title option is disabled at forum level for normal users by default. That option is usually only given out as a reward of a sort, though you can always try asking an admin via PM about it and see if you get lucky that way though.

ExcruciationX

I don't mind people getting one (since I only see a small handful of DCEmu UK members wanting one). Just as long as it doesn't get abused like Reputation points, I don't think the privilege would be taken away.

It should work for you guys now.

Buddy4point0
June 23rd, 2008, 04:22
I like that only a small amount of people have it, many more and it won't even be anything special anymore.
