Why new titles and colors?

After we implemented the changes, we noticed some problems:

  • The bot provider color is too close to the administrator color.
  • The bot provider color may also be too close to the retired volunteer color.
  • The moderator color is too close to the contributor color.
  • "Retired Volunteer" may have a different meaning than "Volunteer Emeritus," so the name may be changed back.

The colors were changed for good reason. The contributor color was too close to that of wiki members, for example. Some bot providers were also unhappy with the previous bot provider color. We are open to changes though, so if you have some good color suggestions, please list them!

Contributors could be orange. Orange symbolises energy, enthusiasm, creativity, determination, encouragement and stimulation. It has some of the fire and passion from red, which is useful for heated debates.

 

Smiley makers should stay yellow, because that's the same colour as xat's default smilies, and the colour of happiness and cheerfulness. 

 

And Bot Providers should stay gold, because it's shiny like metal. Well, anything but rusty red.

 

Ok, I'm getting carried away now. :$

Emeritus was good enough. Unless you have two titles, and give it to those who allegedly "deserve" Emeritus and give retired vol to the vols who simply retired. 

I say just keep Emeritus, we don't want another giant debate who gets the other rank

 

btw, if possible, you should change the border colors to the title color, look at mod for exmaple; the title is green, so the border should be clean, same thing w/ vol ect. it looks much cleaner and more appealing to the eye. the black border seems a bit too harsh.

Here's my list:

  • Bot Providers ██ #c5b137
  • Smiley Makers ██  #fbe148
  • Volunteer Emeritus ██ #61175e
  • Contributors ██ #58537c
  • Wiki Editors ██ #18386D
  • Wiki Translators ██ #5d7398
  • Moderators ██ #21410e

 

At first, I thought these colors were rather bland and lacking in variety. But then I realized they kinda fit the whole space/galaxy theme that xat has going on.

 

Perhaps darker shades and colors would be better suited after all.

I think Advance Members should have a color, I doubt grey appeals to them. PS: where is my volunteer invite  (smirk) ?

 

If they're given a color, I'd recommend the same dark blue from the forum header.

 

It's relatively neutral, and would fit the forum's color scheme nicely.

I suggested a colour and provided a good reason behind it.

 

It's more than what most people did. :$

 

Now you're a 'lettucerator' and contributors are oranges supportive vitamin. For a few more long and prosperous years of health! lol
