When a post appears all in red- is that a forum action?

First, I'm sure this is answered somewhere and I apologize in advance for the repeat question.

This is my question:

A post for an ICO (I think) offering whacky returns was immediately called out as a bad math ponzi scam.
I love this place.

The type was all in red.
Maybe the poster was using those little key codes I forgot?

Then it occurred to me-

Maybe a MOD did that to warn us.

Have an awesome day.

Your right dude , that poster used a bbcode to turn red all of her/his post , for example :

Code:

[color=red]I love this place[/color]

I love this place

Maybe a MOD did that to warn us.

Maybe , but mod can delete that instantly if they found that post is violating rules.
You can share the user post link that you talking about?

Edited to add: Mmm, yes, now I am remembering the codes.
There's a list somewhere around here, now that I think about it.

Cool.
TY.

I hate posts like that, and I usually ignore them. I don't like all caps posts either, so I ignore those as well.

The reason for this is that I speed read, and these variations slow me down. They are also markers for posts that are likely to have little value.
