That's odd. What does it mean?

 

Not sure but i think those are members who have not verified their emails yet but i am not sure at all. If someone else can put some light it on it it would be great to know

 

ahh. great info. thansk.

 

they havnt validated there e-mail address

 

Guess will born from general conscious. Guessing correct answer is an art. I could not guess what grayed username stands for? Thanks to Smyrl for making it clear.

 

I found a guy's name in pink now. His username is eddy2099.

What does a name in pink mean?

 

You are absolutely right. He is pink, not red but pink. There is one more thing about that member. When I tried to view his public profile, I got the following error:

​

I never got that error with any other members before.

Will be interesting to hear what mods think about this.

Maybe he's some sort of spy.

 

Alright, I made a search and found this:

not very sure what exactly this means // does it mean that he is still registering then why will he be considered as a user // would be good to know abt the pink thingy

 

You guys must be very bored to bother yourselves with that... And I have no idea why I'm on this thread myself...

 

Ok, so it's similar to someone in gray.

So what's the difference between gray and pink?

Which comes first, pink or gray?

 

pink this is new colour i saw this is also for new members without valied emails i think.So total how many colours will be there?

 

It was said that gray was for people who have not validated their emails.

Are you saying pink is for people who have entered invalid emails and they have been rejected? Like if someone uses a fake email?

 

sorry i too dont know i saw it for first time.Grey is not yet validated e-mail address then pink will be something else

 

These are the possible statuses in vBulletin:

- Administrator
- Moderator
- Super moderator
- Registered
- Unregistered/Not logged in
- Users awaiting email confirmation
- Users awaiting moderation

 

so u mean they will be 7 colours?, i think banned users also other option so may be 8 options.

 

oki it will be good to know from someone from staff to answer that but i think pink is for Users Awaiting Moderation as i have seen that user in green in some part of the forum .

 

You may add more for yourself and you may or may not choose them to have a different color, so it's up to Shawn or the moderators to answer that.
