Notes

  • From 17:29 eastern on December 17th, 2006 to 18:40 eastern January 11th, 2007, only developers were rednames. Lighthouse had, for almost a month, altered all NCsoft community representatives to be orange names. Later, with the addition of the Community Digest page, he altered them back due to orange clashing with the CoV color scheme, and the general tendency of players to still call Community Reps red names.
  • This change retro-actively altered all previous rednamed Community Reps such as Aura Manning, Vyvyanne and CuppaJo into being orange names, but at no time had they actually been orange names.
  • In late 2008, orange naming was revived after a fashion. Starting on Nov 10 2008 with ATI Agent Ruby, NCsoft started giving business partners temporary forum accounts with orange names so that they could answer questions about their products and how they interact with NCsoft games.
