Specifically the way that the forum identifies different users. For example, I've noticed that there are several different colours used for player names... mine is dark green, but I see light green, bright green, grey, orange, and some others. Since I don't seem to be able to choose, I'm guessing that the forum assigns a colour to your name based on some criteria. Anyone know what that is?
Same thing with titles, icons, and the little golden "SWG" icon next to some player names. I can choose from some lightsaber icons and the basic ones, but I've seen many, many others that I can't choose from. Same goes for the title underneath your name... mine seems to have been assigned to me, but I have no idea what for.
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. And I apologize for the somewhat noobish questions, but I'm not really a regular poster on the forums.

Far as name color, title, and that gold SWG icon next to names, those are all assigned, it's part of the new forum ranking system. The colors denote different ranks based on certain criteria, like time subscribed, post star rating, and number of posts. To read about the specifics go to the announcements board and read Garva's thread about "The new ranking system" (I'm too lazy to link it 
)
)I believe some of the Icons are also relatedto how long you've been a member, so if some aren't open to you, then that's why, I can't be 100% sure b/c I've used this same one since I came, never had a need to change it.

Thx imn4life. I wanted to make a clicky, but not sure how.
I see a different post on this almost everyday. I think they sticky it here since this seems to be the first place everyone looks.
