Red and green user names?

I did a search and came up with zip.

What do the red and green user names mean?

Is Red a trip to Ban Island? What does the Green mean?

Yes red means banned or suspended (not permanently).

But I don't remember seeing a green username. Yours right now looks like mine, black .

The green ones are for brand new user names. They usually have just a handful of posts.

Speaking of Orange user names I find it odd that a "banned" member can have a green button showing that they are online. Seems to me they would be logged out during a ban. Seahawk banned me once (my only ban which was for speaking up about mods, a rule I wrote as a mod, if you like irony) and I remember not being able to log in.

Plus it says Banned under their name?
I've always thought it was strange that guys that are banded are still checking threads here.
I'd be like FU until I was instated if not forever. Can't get enough of us I guess.

I've been banned once (I think), just recently ... and I just don't GAF anymore ...

If you question a mod's BS .... and I ALWAYS will ...

Totally inconsistent, changing with the weather enforcement of "Forum rules" ...

Bring back the bots, trolls, and poopieheads ...

This post will disappear, or I might be banned ... because of ONE moderator ...

LOL ... the island is a nice place to visit ... and stay forever ... jmho

Same here. Never been to Ban island. And I did have a few posts removed in PARF, and I got a PM from a moderator.

I got a "Signature Rule Violation" when I started a thread about Oliver Stone being interviewed by Joe Rogan in "Off Topic".

- They did talk generally about politics but it wasn't partisan.

Other than that nothing.
