Colored Names above heads to match ranks.
« on: October 21, 2012, 06:02:17 pm »
Peoples names that appear above their heads are always white or grey(I cant remember), but I think it would be nice if these were the same color as the rank of the player. It would help me when I teleport to some to place water, but they yell at me fro being a griefer. If they saw the blue or teal name of a mod or op, they may not freak out making our jobs easier. Not only this but I'm sure it would look cool! This is possible, I have seen it on other servers, but thanks for considering this!

I'm not sure what it would take to do this but I like the idea.

I have thought of this idea for a long time but never brought it up. It would help in some cases.

No.
At least say why you say no. I personally think it wouldnt be a terrible idea, but isnt really needed. People dont freak out THAT much. :p

Optical had a plugin like this before where it would appear in the tab list instead and I think that can be configured also in the plugin itself. But I see no difference anyways.

I like this idea! It would help for the players familiar with the ranks (colors of the ranks) but not necessarily for the clueless players.

No.

Pretty sure this would be clientside anyway, and require everyone to install a mod, as I have never seen it used in a server before, and I've seen a lot of servers.

Yeah, why not? Sounds nice. Plus, it'd make our player names a bit less boring.

I've seen this on a few PvP servers to define the team colours, but I don't see any use of having it here as optical or dejected might as well spend time developing something more useful. It would be intresting to have, but I can think of better things for them to spend time on ;)

I think it would be nice just to match the way it is on classic, but no one really cares.
