ken001 Posted October 17, 2020 Report Share Posted October 17, 2020 Why do some of the people I have friended show up with a bright blue button and others are a gray button? What to the different colors mean, and are there other colors I haven't seen yet?Also, I read in a 2012 discussion that BBO had "categories" available but the instructions given in the discussion don't work now. Are categories still available, and if so, how do we use them?Thanks for any and all replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulg Posted October 17, 2020 Report Share Posted October 17, 2020 Blue means that the user also follows you. Grey means that the user does not follow you back. Categories were supported in previous BBO clients, but not in the current client. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilowsky Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 If you are 'blue' then you will both know when you are both online. Recently I have noticed a certain 'stickiness' with the database. If I 'follow' someone to see if they are following me, then return their status to neutral if they are not, then it can often be quite difficult to get the server to 'unglue'.Sometimes I have had to ignore first then return to neutral. Not sure if others have had this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbb483 Posted October 23, 2020 Report Share Posted October 23, 2020 If it is Grey, the text is 'follow', if it is Blue, the text is 'Friend' - which all ties in with what has been typed above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
