What do the colored member names even mean?

I've noticed that some members have different colors for their username...normal members have blue, banned users have pink strike-through, the "Jerkops" are green (admins?), the "Manajerks" are purple (mods?), and some even have yellow (Marvin, ABL, and ParkourDude are the only ones I know of that have this), but I think it's more of a signatory thing and it doesn't actually give them any powers. And Null, who is admin, is blue like everyone else, so either he must own a second alternate account for doing actual work (likely) or that sort of thing is farmed out among the "Jerkops" (less likely).

What is the system? Anyone know?

I know not to piss off the higher-ups. I've never insulted anybody here (at least tried not to)
 
No but seriously, this is the hierarchy:

Red are admins (AKA jerkhief) such as :champ::smokedaddy::bb::freecell:

Green are global mods (AKA jerkop) such as
cu8jCGl.gif%5B
:katsu:
vqnvc04.gif%5B


Purple are mods (AKA manajerk) such as
g0YzbGq.gif%5B
Ml5N2j4.gif%5B


:null: for some reason doesn't want to include himself in the admin list but he does admin stuff I think. And
mfSpKXf.gif%5B
is blue DARK BLUE but is some kind of mod.

These fokes are the staff (AKA Friends of the People).

Orange are Christorical figures such as :asperchu:

Null doesn't like attention.
 
There are some members coloured blue but are also banned, though I'm not so sure whether they're pink now.

See: Peppy (EDIT: User removed, though I remember there are some users who are banned but still coloured blue)
 
I would like to share with you all how I came up with some of the colors for the user forum.

I chose red for the admins because it's always been a color of power and authority.

I chose purple for mods because traditionally, it's a color associated with royalty. Back in the day, the only way you could get purple dye for clothing was from these snails and it was a real pain in the ass to find the snails and to make dye out of them, so the only people who could afford purple clothing were kings and queens, those sort of people. In the 19th century, they figured out how to chemically synthesize the color purple and people went APESHIT. It sparked the Mauve Revolution, everyone was finally able to wear purple clothing and they did so.

Green was a forum default, I couldn't think of anything for Compy.

Null is blue because he's a humble kind of guy and while he technically owns the forum, he doesn't have a fancy user name color.

Dark Blue for CatParty was Null's idea.

I chose pink for banned users as it would stand out and it would spark humiliation. Not that there's anything wrong with the color pink, just it stands out mostly and most people aren't crazy about the color.

VIPs are yellow, because, I don't know, Asperchu was yellow so was Alec? That was Null's idea. Not a bad idea.

I remember back then banned users have dark brown colours too, but changed back to pink. Just leaving it here.
