Red Color on Messenger Plus? by Alertminotar on 06-25-2009 at 08:20 PM
Hi All!
I just tried Messenger Plus for the first time, and i have a quick question (didn't find answer in the faq or stickies).
A contact i haven't seen on for a long time, appears offline but in a red color (only one in dark red color).
I was hoping you could help me what this means (if he blocked me, deleted me etc.) I know he didn't delete me cause it says "you are on his contact list" when i asked for info, and most likely didn't block me (cause i had another contact blocked me and he still appeared black)
I can't do !ver cause i am not on that pc atm, but i'll edit the version in here later today.
Thanks for your help!

Still I think that may be the busy indicator, a red square, same as green for online, gray for offline, and yellow for away, but a screenshot would really help =)

Ok, i'll try to get a screen shot when i get back to my pc.
The thing is he is not busy or away, he is offline. All thje offline contacts look the same, except this one has the name (not the icon) on red.

He's using colour in his name? A feature of Messenger Plus...

But yeah, as you said his name is red, he is almost surely using a custom color code (like [c=46]text[/c] = text)

Yes, as suggested previously he is using the coloured names feature of Messenger Plus, that's all there is to it
