What does it mean when someone's user name is in bold red letters?

And there is at least one orange name. :tu:

No purple people yet, even though there is a song.... :rolling:

Actually I have no idea why RED, but it is the universal color used for WARNINGS. I figured maybe I annoyed Scott :rolling: :rolling: :rolling: :rolling: :rolling:

Okay I think I figured out the bold and red.

I can say how much I like it here all I want but I'm short when it comes to action.
Thank you to the folks who help make this Forum happen. I enjoy it every day.

I have some ideas on orange and purple but they don't seem to be definitive so I'm okay.

It means they have 140 PG parts! :rolling: EDIT. I just noticed my name is orange! I think it has to do with the old Corvair of the month contest this site used to have! The winners names change color?

Oh the ORANGE paint on 140HP PG parts. That certainly got a number of "myths" going. Glad you finally proved the torque convertor was just the same as any other.

Red letter was initially for site sponsors. But when I was testing the no ads for members I used that group to see if it worked. I can change it back so your names aren’t red anymore.
Orange is for Corvair of the month winners.

What does purple mean? There is at least one recent poster who is purple. You could always use color to designate when a certain post count has been reached. :think:
