Yellow names

I’m curious to know why some peoples names are coming up in yellow on the forum. I’m sure it doesn’t mean they are Coldplay fans.😊 Does anyone know why? Also, please can anyone explain the meaning of the different circles on the left hand side of the forum screen, some are red, some have a flame like image in the centre and some have a single spot?
Just curious and I’m sure I will feel foolish when someone explains.

Good question, to my aged eyes, closer to 80 than 70 I find the yellow nearly impossible to read.

The different circles on the left hand side of the forum index screens mean as listed below I think, if you hover over them with a mouse details pop up.
red = you have unread posts.
black = no unread posts.
a single spot/red star = you have posted in the thread.
a flame like image in the centre = (black if 'no unread' posts or red if unread posts). Hot topic maybe?
If you click on the red circles you go to the unread posts.

Looks like all the yellow named members are also rated 1275 Cooper S too. I’m guessing the yellow is actually Gold. If you’re yellow you’re top of the class - Gold star!

Yellow means more than 1000 posts, with the added bonus of a bigger message inbox

I've been to Specsavers today to collect my new glasses and confirm that the colours work. Yellow now equals blue.

You seem to be on the right train of thought, something Freudian about that. :oops: Get yourself out the garage more often. ;) If that fails go to the optician's. :lol:
