    I've never seen a grey one I don't think, but red definitely means banned, typically a temporary ban.

    This thread might be of some help too.

    The pink color comes when a user makes some changes, like change email id or something that requires authorization of an admin! the user also have some limitation during this period!
    [Note: i may be wrong]

    uttoran is right. Pink is when they have changed their email address and await admin approval.

    I always wondered what the pinkish color was for, I've seen it around here a few times.

    Grey = User awaiting email confirmation.
    Light red/pink = User under moderation.
    Red = Banned.
    Light green = New member.
    Slightly darker green = Member who is 7 days old and has 25 posts.
    Dark green = Full member.

    Username changes to pink color if the system detects a member having multiple account (?). Also, I think, there's a bug which makes them pink if they changes their email. It happens sometime.
