Significance of a red username?

What's up guys?

Throughout my time on GC, I've noticed some blades have different colored usernames. I noticed:
Green- mod or admin (I think)
Gold- gold member
silver- silver member
bronze- bronze member
Red- ???

So I've been wondering... What does it mean when your username is red? Does it have to do with post count? How do you get one?

Also, a bonus question. What determines what color your username is? In other words, say you're registered as a gold member, but you unlocked the ability to have a red name. What determines which color becomes visible? Do you get to pick, or do some colors have more significance than others (and in that case mods/admins choose for you)?

I know this is somewhat of a pointless and trivial question, but I'm very curious and I would like to know.

 

I know, it truly is a great word.

 

any color? because I believe I've only seen mods with a green one.

 

oh okay cool, any idea how long it takes? Or is it only limited to people who have been here since the beginning of GC?

 

nah you have bronze. The red I'm talking about is bright, bright red.

 

blue, just like mine and most other members.

 

If you look at the list of currently oonline users, you'll see some members have a bronze-ish color like KiefSweat and others have a bright red. That's the red I'm inquiring about.

 

Thanks to everyone who helped clear this matter up.

Do you know why there aren't any forums guide at the moment? I'd like to have a purple username (it's my favorite color), I know it's kinda pointless and useless but still. What do junior mods even do, is it the same as regular mods but on a smaller scale?
