Colored Names

in General Discussion
I would like to get peoples opinions on colored names for the developers/mods here on the forums similar to how they are set up on the official discord. I know they have the small rectangle that shows their id but a different colored name would make it easier to ID their posts straight up.
Just a thought.

    This or colored text/post background, just something to distinguish staff from the rest of the rabble would be nice.

    Definitely would love colored names, maybe for some badges you get or what you do on the forums, how active you are etc. <3

    Hey folks! Combined a few different suggestions in this thread along with what I was able to quickly update in Vanilla to add some distinction. All Staff posts in threads now have a golden outline around them that matches our Staff tracker tag, just like this one! Hope this helps you distinguish our posts, without affecting readability too much :smiley:

    So do I...I really hope we get some more badge variation for different type of activities here.

    On the topic of colors, great idea.

    @elf When @LieutenantToast first made the change there was a yellow border around her whole post but when I accepted her answer it vanished the yellow border that is. So maybe a bug in there that causes the border to vanish in that situation.
    I did check out a post in another thread and it did still have its yellow border for a mod.

    Yup, looks like you accepting my reply as an answer gave it a new style class, which overrode my fancy yellow border! Seems to be a limited case just if someone accepts my reply as an answer, so I'll do some more digging there :) if you'll notice, it also appears to have hidden my Roles!
