People with different colored names

I was just wondering, Soopy and a few others have different colored names.

Why is this?

I think it depends on what your chose as fanboy when you signed up for the account.  So if you chose Microsoft it would be green. And blue for Sony. At least I think.

Thats a bloody good question...i was wondering myself....

And PC is white... I demand a real colour for us PC fans!

When you signed up you were asked what kind of 'fanboy' you are - what ever you picked is what determines what color your name will show up.

I selected neutral, and I'm still white.

The whole world is now placing me in a damn box, mislead into thinking I'll back the PC to the bloody end. If I get shoebombed I'm totally suing Giantbomb.

I'm Nintendo so if my name isn't red that theory is incorrect.

Hmm, names aren't colored in the threads but they are in the thread list.

Demand away. I liked PC as white though. :)"

Can you change your fanboy thing? I haven't looked around for it yet.

I chose Neutral even though I only play on PC. I just don't want people to look through my profile and assume I'm a straight out PC fanboy when it comes to discussions/arguements.
And no, you cannot quote me.

This message will self-destruct in...

Yeah I picked PC and got White, I want PC to be Orange, that is a nice color.

Yo staff, do you hear me? ORANGE FOR PC!

I think it's a really nice touch. That way everyone knows where everyone stands. Great idea.

Now I know who to lynch.

JUST KIDDING!

<.<

Color system is neat, but the only colors I usually see are green(360).

Well, if that's true then my name and my alignment are fairly ironic. Red, but he's Blue!

I think both PC and neutral are white.  

They should make the names colored on posts.

yeah, if not, you wouldnt know who is a fanboy

"I think both PC and neutral are white.  "

I love this color coded system to show where that person stands on different game companies; Now if I see someone will a colored name, I can disregard whatever they say :-)

Oh noes, I hope I can change it...

You can change it by editting your profile.

What about if you like all  system equally,Can you have a green,blue,Red and white name?

so that makes me a Nintendo fanboy....why the hell is it red?

Red = Mario
Green = XBOX logo
Blue = Playstation 2 logo?

Red Green Blue is typically what distinguishes them on sales charts people make too I suppose.

I somehow missed the neutral option when I signed up but luckily you can change it

Hmm, I chose MS and my username isn't green.

Ah but why is PC white? Because we're purists?

That sounds about right.

We want some color for the PC, kthx.

well its good to know who's gonna be trouble

neutral should be "rainbow" colored O_o

cool idea, me like!

I think PC should have a different color than neutral if it does not already.

PC should be pink or orange, whilst neutral should stay white IMO.

Is it a good sign that the vast majority of names are white?

As for colour names, the Nintendo logo has been Red before. But, there isn't really a specific colour for Nintendo. The Gamecube was purple, but Mario's red, and their logo always changes colour. But now the Wii's blue, but the console is white. Aaargh.

But PC orange? Now can someone explain that to me?

I chose Ninty for mine, though if I'm honest - MS look more and more appealing =]

Green = Gamma Radiation.

It not easy being green. :(

lol yay! I have a green name!
