Global Default Colors

[AlaskanSkies]

Ok, so I have noticed that after the new update, defaults have their chat and name completely grayed out. This is annoying because it seems like it is implied that they don't really matter, and they are just useless people. Defaults make up the majority of the server, and the "grayed-out" thing seems very unfair. It may be used to get people to buy ranks, but some people do not have the money, or there are other problems. I think that the chat color of defaults should be white, even if the name color stays gray, so that it does not seem like they are being ignored and they stand out a little more. I am a MockingJay, and I have some friends that are defaults… Please vote on what you guys think.

Ehh I have people I dislike that are defaults so I think differently

But not all defaults are bad people...

I don't see it as unfair because they want it to be a privilege for those of us who donated.

Agreed

So not being put down is a "privilege"?

You're acting as though color chat is the normal, and you've been "put down".

Instead, normal (default) is gray, and the privilage of a rank is a color. Defaults aren't put down, they're the normal color. Then ranks get other cooler colors

It's not me- I'm a MockingJay. Mostly it is my MC friends. Defaults used to have white chat, along with everyone else, which seems fair. The normal color would be white chat, not gray.

Well, again, it's a perk of donating.
It's not meant as an insult. The default color is grey now instead of white

 

[AlaskanSkies]

It just seems very… demeaning? I don't know how to describe it. I understand your point of view, but it seems unfair to some defaults.

 

[Nootch]

And having the white chat may seem unfair to some ranks :-}

Imagine this scenario:

Spoiler: Just Imagine

You are just joining a server for the first time. You have no idea what to expect. The server loads, and you see Ranked members chatting with fancy colors, and you see defaults chatting in a simple grey. You start to talk and play. You really love the SG games and the PVP arena. You wish you could play factions, but it is being updated. There are staff members online, many more gamemodes to try, and forums to check out.

Spoiler: Question

Now, would you really be concerned about the color of your chat?
