Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 4,918 Likes: 65 | administrators look red, everyone else to me looks maroon. Blue people are supposed to be moderators, but we don't have any set for that. So I will look at anyone that has a blue name and see what their settings are. But NO ONE looks blue to me. As to Deejer your name shows to me.....
