Oh I just had a thought. People who donate should be indigo. Right now if someone from every group and Vae gives a kudos to someone's post they'll still be one short of the rainbow. I've given it a lot of thought (don't listen to the start of this post - I just needed an opening [that's not a double entendre {well... maybe I'll make it one. Yes, I've given it a lot of thought and it is one}]) and I've come to the conclusion that indigo (purple to the rainbow layperson) needs to be instated. Why are donators light green anyway? The only reason I can think of is that money is green (in American movies anyway. My money isn't green...), but what if they donated loose change? But you can't donate notes or change anyway because it's an electronic transfer. What colour are electronic transfers? See, the whole colour system is breaking down now.
Also - side note - sometimes two admins kudos a post and I stare at the two red names and it seems like they're different colours (one seems to go almost orange!). I'll never have a pretence to mention that again, so there I said it.
Edit: oh god, a new page. I can't handle this sort of pressure. Fix all the typos, fix all the typos!

Orange coloured names are ex-staff.

Oh, I understand the colour member group relationship fine. My eyes just do strange things. Totally tangential nonsense from me

My approach to user name color is like my choice of fashion. The less I have to think about it, the happier I am. (With apologies to those whose field of vision I do not enhance.)

I said no and that I don't care... but you've got to read into it more than that. I don't feel any of you deserve purple, maybe a few could rock 'purple-lite', but y'all just ain't crazy 'nuff.
So long as you recognize your own color limitations: pick whatever the fuck you want
Just be sure...

Yes, but also because I'm tired of the color-centric mindset of those who are privileged enough to see the full range of the spectrum a human is intednded to see. It is insulting to the colorly-challenged when insensitive ideas such as this are bandied about without any consideration for those they these ideas harm. I'm thinking about starting a new movement called "Atheism -" with frankiej. It's atheism minus all of the harmful, color-centric insensitivity that the privileged aren't even aware they propagate.

I'm not with you, because I don't want to let go of the one thing important to me. Do I count as an asshole if the only color I can detect is purple?

You're an asshole, because you're not with my movement. That's how these things work.

Awww Well, at least I'm the cleanest, most *censored* asshole in the world
I'm feeling exceptionally deistic at the moment... so much good happened and I'm grateful for it, came home crying in thankfulness a couple weeks ago, several times. Not yet pinning it on any beings or force in particular. If this continues to go on like this for a solid while, there's a chance I might even update it with 'Christian', but hey: who knows?
And I've always been spiritual, in a completely nonreligious sense. Always have been about 'the human spirit' (not the nonmaterial humbo jumbo).

Glad to hear things are going so well, but if you do label yourself a Christian, we're going to have to take your purple away.
