Red//Blue "who's online" ?
bcbird:
It might be that new members are in red while they are an Egg. After 10 posts they hatch and are Hatchlings, and I seem to recall they have their name colour change to blue. I think we finally did sort this out last year, but that was a very long time and many, many posts ago.
allikat:
I was wondering the same thing bcf ???
I still don't get the red, blue thing...when you go to the bottom of the page to see which members are online, you can see that some of them are in blue, red etc...
I don't get it..but that's okay. We still have fun anyway!

The colours are related to the membergroups one belongs to ....
red - me as Admin and Supreme Goddess of the Sandbox
green - regular members; come 2009, members who joined prior to Jan 2009 and who (by posting at year-end) requested to remain active.
blue - regular members; come 2009, members who have joined since Jan 2009
The stars are the same ...
big red stars - me, Admin and blah-blah-blah
big green stars - active for a second year on the forum (and yes, there will be three stars for those of you who hang around until 2010)
small yellow stars - new members, number of stars tied to number of posts
Now that I'm playing with membergroups, I may add/change them some more in the new year, but they will probably work in pretty much the same manner. If I can find a way to have the small stars and the green stars show at the same time, will do that too. But that's for rainy days when its quiet.

Okay, I hate to bring this up again, but how come some new members are in red? I thought they were supposed to be blue. Reading back on this, it is one of the funniest threads ever!

The green stars only go to the Phanatics - that's anyone who posted (or emailed/pm'd me) to stay active in 2009. It used to say "Active 2009" which wasn't very creative if descriptive, so I gave it a better name! Fledgling is based on the number of messages you have posted.
For "new" or "returning" folks, they will have the little yellow stars along with egg, hatchling, etc based on the number of their posts.
Have another group, which is for school classrooms and they have one red star instead of the Phanatics two greenies. They have a private section now where I hope we can arrange interactive question & answer periods just for the kids. Am trying to figure out how you all can read, but only the kids can post, but haven't gotten that quite worked out yet.
