Change of color in "User Name"

by AsadA969 Tue Jun 30, 2015 4:38 am

There are different types of student in Manhattan Forum; Some students are called Course Students, some are prospective students, some are Forum Guests, some are Students. When I was the new member of this forum then I was the forum guests (probably), and my user name's color was yellow. But after few days my designation was converted as Student :) , and my user name was changed in BLUE color. Actually, I've not got why the color is being changed in user name? :?
Thanks.

That reflects whether you have bought any of our products and services. Yellow is for people who have completely free accounts. Blue and Purple are for people who have bought various things - books, classes, etc.

When we have periods of very high-volume traffic, we give priority to blue and purple people. That sounds funny. ;)

Haha! No, it doesn't relect the number of posts (or quality!) or anything like that. :) It just allows us to prioritize if we need to do so. Sometimes, during busy season, we get a crazy volume of traffic here!
