Seriously: don't

well, if you really want colors, just try them out - ^ and then a digit switches the current color.

Well normaly i'm know of purism.. but i have a colored nick so i can see the ping better, guess when its finaly in the scoreboard i would switch back to a pure nick
But you are right, there is not much point in having a colored nick..

No, the problem with colors in nicknames is something else...

if you know what you're doing, it isn't that bad. But I often have players who put many color codes in sequence because they thought it just changes the color and the color was a character property... like ^7^3^2^1^4^5^3^6^7somename.

And why that is bad? Currently DP's word wrap and line break doesn't understand color codes and does quite wrong things in such cases.

It isn't bad when using only four or five color codes in a nickname...

but you know what some people do
