Usergroup/Colour Guide for New Members (Updated)

[Flammenwerfer]

Here is a link to the old thread: viewtopic.php?f=27&t=7157. The old thread is outdated; this link is merely an homage to the original poster's idea.

Hello, new members! If you're here, you're probably asking "Why do some members have cool colours? How...how can I get dat?" Well, good ole Flammenwerfer here is gonna educate you all on the subject of usergroup colours.

 

White members are simply regular Members. Regular members are what make this site what it is. As soon as you register, you become a member of this great Zombies community, and gain this colour automatically!

Blue members are Donors. These members have donated to the site. Their special colour is a gift; a token of appreciation for supporting CoDZ. If you have donated, you can apply to be a Donor. (Donor members are also awarded an exclusive "Donor" medal!)

 

Cyan members are the current month's UOTM (User of the Month). These members have been recognized by the community as outstanding leaders, grand strategists, excellent theorists, or just plain nice dudes. UOTM's are voted on by the community at the end of each month. This usergroup and colour is only temporary, however users will gain a special "UOTM" medal to show off long after they've lost the colour.

Dark Orange members are Affiliates. These members are recognized as outstanding members of the Call of Duty Zombies community across the internet. These members also show their dedication to CoDZ through various ways of media. Users cannot apply to be an Affiliate.

Purple members are Dwellers. These members are recognized by the staff as excellent role models and leaders, and are appointed with special privileges, such as the ability to sticky topics and approve Asylum posts. These members act as a link between regular members and staff members. Users, again, cannot apply to be a Dweller.

Yellow members are Legends. These members are formerly active members who showed great leadership, dedication, and overall awesomeness to the community. These members no longer post as often as they used to, and are usually ex-staff members that resigned on good terms. Users cannot apply to be a Legend.

Green members are Moderators. These members are those who have shown their worth in the community, and now manage it. These members primarily make up the staff of CoDZ, and as such, have special privileges. For example, they can ban users, delete topics, move topics and edit all posts, regardless of the poster. Users cannot apply (or ask, or plead, or beg, or hint at) to be a Moderator.

 

Dark Green members are Technical Support. These members are part of the moderating team that also have administrative access. They control the backend of the site, and can give support to people who are having technical issues with it. Users cannot apply to be part of Technical Support.

Red members are Admins. They are the big bosses of the community. They can do anything they want with the forum, like change user names, passwords, make forums, etc. Admins have been members of the CoDZ community for a considerable amount of time, and have, over the years, demonstrated their leadership skills. They are usually Moderators who have been promoted for their hard work. This colour is also used by the Treyarch Staff who also have accounts on CoDZ. However, they do not have the same permissions as Admins. Users cannot apply to be an Admin or Treyarch Staff (although I hear they are always hiring ).

If you have any questions or concerns, please, feel free to contact me or any other staff member via PM.

Are there even Dwellers anymore?

Are there even Dwellers anymore?

Yes, but they are a "hidden" usergroup. cjdog23 is still a Dweller, and in fact, is the only Dweller right now..

Good quality post flammen,should help new users learn about who to fear and who not to fear jk.Btw,Affiliates?I thought they were V.I.P.s?

[Flammenwerfer]

When they post, their image is VIP, but if you look at the bottom of the Index page, you'll see that they're in the Affiliates usergroup.

[PINNAZ]

I think you need to update the colours again Mr Flammen.

[Flammenwerfer]

Updated to coincide with the new forum!

[Hells Warrrior]

Flammen, the affiliates, treyarch, activision all fall under the same colour group, the colour group is #900201 (click on colour palette, more colours and enter that in for the colour

 

The members orange colour is #ff6600

[Hells Warrrior]

Oh and if a username is white, that means they have signed in but haven't validated account and can't do anything until the account is validated.

 

pink is BANNED, was just a random colour I thought was appropriate for BANNED users

[Luckasaurus]

You earn blue by donating to the site. Donation can be found in the right hook on the main page.

[Hells Warrrior]

He is referring to this colour I presume (set for guests and robots) - this colour is set for donors.

 

Both these colour options are not available as standard (the donors colour is only available if you make a donation towards server costs).

Yeah the light blue one for bots!!! If you can do that for me I'll give you the greatest gift of all: my friendship <3

[Boom115]

@Luckasaurus No can do. Hopefully we can still be friends :)

Make a donation of server costs for the year and I'll give you any colour you wish (staff, VIP, Studio colours excluded), this applies to anyone

So in order for me to finally get the dutch usergroup I have to pay 1079,40 $ ?

 

@Slade , @Tasha let us three pay 359,80 $ each and then we can finally have the glorious dutch usergroup.

I think a deal could be reached.

[Luckasaurus]

Nooooo I asked first! Okay I didn't want to have to do this, but I'm pulling out the big guns. If you make me the light blue username, I'll give you the gift of my friendship AND a pat on the back..... Whaddya say?!

[Luckasaurus]

And if not I will reluctantly accept green with a little asterisk reading *not a moderator, just green with envy toward the Bing and Google bots for inarguably having the best and most random color*

[Luckasaurus]

Or even an ugly shade of puke green, come on, I'm about to lose a little bit of the self esteem I've invested into this endeavor! At work I sold my soul for my sales color to be Pimpin Purple instead of my manager. Well jokes on them, MY SOUL ISN'T REALLY WORTH THAT MUCH!!

I'll still love you guys if I can't have gunshot blue or puke green... But only after a fair amount of time of grieving and pouting

[Black Hand Smith]

will Black ever become a usergroup color?

[Tac]

Haha that would be awesome!!! Make the banned people black

[Guest]

Oh Tac, I wish I was purple like you... wanna trade?

[Luckasaurus]

Omg black should be a banned user group, it'd blend into the background so you can't read it, hence camouflaging their existence

[Tac]

Oh Tac, I wish I was purple like you... wanna trade?

Haha man it took almost four and half years to get it so yeah sure!! I'm lookin for new colors anyway
