Quick check to see what colour I get...

...green!

So, what do they all mean? Is it like Star Trek where the reds won't be around for long?

Genuinely curious to know what we're all supposed to do with this new info about each other?

Obviously, it's of enormous use to STW Towers but why do we need it?

Will I get greenshamed? *

*Or is it yellowshamed? The colour blind amongst us are having a bit of trouble here.

Red - owns bike.

Turquoise - rides bike.

Grey - rides bike down mountains.

Black - rides bike up AND down mountains.

Green - sponges bike from someone else.

Red – Forum posts are mostly hot and interesting topics

Turquoise – Forum posts are mostly of a pornographic nature (it’s not turquoise it’s blue)

Grey – Forum posts are about as exciting as John Major

Black – Never posts in the forum

Green – Posts of a distasteful, nauseating nature

For the benefit of the select couple of arses making sarky comments, this is a part of a bigger change.

@Poopscoop

Pics seem to be working on profiles…. Or were they working anyway?!😮

Yes, it was fixed a few months ago.

Has the “fancy editor” option always been there?

For years now, since the last major upgrade. It was the cause of all the spurious <div> <span> markup so it was made optional rather than the default.

Filled in your profile info.

So now the text has change to Free/Full member.  So you can see the cheap skates in green, presumably blue is digital only as thats me, green is Mag subscription, grey and red are mysteriously special in some way.

Edit: Don't believe it. I've been here before the "great Hack" but I've only completed 20% of Singletrack. Gonna have to flounce off now, hopefully that will get me upgraded to at least 30%. Is it a ban for full 100% completion 😂

That's what I thought, but I've added a couple of things, and its still 60%.

Or do you mean the profile 'they' are compiling?
