| First topic message reminder :
While I am all for having our forum have color, especially in our names, I wanted to get this question thrown out to everyone. To be completely honest, there's a plethora of many different colors on our forum. While it is fun to have our possible favorite color painted over your user name, there could be some issues. Some that I would consider are; what's significant about these colors on people? Are they entitled to something? Yes, some are entitlted to the responsibilities they are assigned to. But personally, when changing the color on your name can be doable by free will, it can feel overwhelming or atrocious.
Lemme break down what colors we have activated on our forum (you can see all of them at the bottom); Rainbow (Administrator; closed group; very essential) Orange (Moderators; closed group; essential) Yellow (Super Moderators; closed group; essential) Green (Stream Moderators; closed group; essential) Blue (Specialists; Member group) Light Blue (Season 5 Moderators; closed group) Purple (Witches; Member group) Pink (Fairies; Member group) Red (Wizards; Member group) Dark Purple (default for all members with no group defined)
Count 'em, 10 colors.
Now don't get me wrong guys; it is fine and dandy to have a diverse amount of color on our forum. However, when you get down to it, you may find yourself asking... is it a little too much? I wanna hear y'all's opinion on the matter. Should we decrease the amount of color names we have? Don't be afraid to think otherwise; if it's a problem, chances are, it can be a problem.
Personally, I would like to keep things simple, yet, enjoyable (and fair) to everybody. I'm also not a huge fan of the default color for members who are not destined to a group (Dark Purple), because it blends with almost every other Link or Topic title that has the same color. No offense to the Red color named people, but Red is an immensely powerful color. It could represent anything; most commonly as an Administrator. That's where I believe people can get confused, especially when they're new to the forum. However, I do like the fact that you can choose a color name to define yourself as a Fairy, Witch or Specialist (referring to the actual show we are dedicated to), and now a Wizard.
Lastly, I would just like to point out that this is simply my opinion and concern with the forum. You can agree or disagree with it; I am happy to hear your insight. | |

| We shouldn't have more then one shade of one colour Jennycakes It might confuse newer members. Heck, it would confuse me! As MusaWinxy said, Grey is a nice neutral colour. | |

| Well, I never definitely said the colors were creating a problem; I was wanting to know what everyone thought of the many colors we had. It could have been a problem though; too much of a good thing can be bad sometimes. Also, I did spring up the idea to Jae about having a fully colored rank for mods/admins. So we both had the same idea at one point. | |

| Well now that the staff have their own ranks.. Maybe it's a good time to finally let everyone get their own color and no one will be confused no matter what really.. | |
