Hi All,
I would love to correct this thread.
If you take a look at it, it does not help with what to do with your nickname colors. It does a brief description, but doesn't specifically explain its use in the game.
Before you guys say "there are already forum posts about this", I have checked almost every one, and have concluded that none of them are in as depth as the one you will read below.
I have repasted the color form, and I will do my best to re-explain how to understand and use this: Click Here
1: To start out, ignore all of the confusing "&" symbols. You will need this later, but it is confusing for new players. Look at the chart, look at the left column and the far right column.
2: Pick out which colors you would like to use, and look at the symbols that relate to that color.
3: Figure out what nickname you would like to use. I will use my own personal nickname as an example:
I chose Ruso (Short for Robrussia). I chose 4 colors, all on the blue shade. I chose the blue shade "1, 9, 3, b" This is confusing if you do not have the chart pulled up, so I will relink it here.
If the 1,9,3,b confused you, take a look at the chart. 1 relates to "dark blue", 9 relates to "blue", 3 relates to "dark aqua", and b relates to "aqua". I chose these colors because they are the same format I have used for past versions.
4: After you figure out what colors you would like to use, here is how you implement them into your nickname.
5: First you must figure out what colors you want to use, then what nickname you want the OPBlocks community to see. I would keep it short, but be creative
6: Type /nick into your chat, and leave a space afterward.
7: After you type /nick, put the "&" symbol, and then the color code, then you letter you want equivalent to it.
I would type /nick &1R
This means that the first letter of my nickname will be an R, and the color "dark blue"
8: Continue adding letters and colors (or if you want one color, keep using the same &(any color code) until your desired nickname is completed.
9: For me, I would do /nick &1R&9u&3s&bo
then hit enter, and it should be saved as your new username!
Troubleshooting:
If your chat comes back with "names must be alphanumeric", re-enter the data, making sure there are no extra spaces. Re-enter your data. If it continues occurring, try to make sure you used the right symbols, didn't accidentally put a ^ or an * instead of an &. After this, if you continue having difficulties, please reach out to me.
Again, this is a copy of another post, but I went into more depth, to help explain this concept to newer (and older) players, who are not familiar with this feature of the game
Hope this helped you in some way,
