We delete posts on the boards that are like that, and we kick from chat for the first offense and ban for several hours after that (we can tell if you're joking or not, if you start doing it habitually, we'll k/b to raise the collective IQ.)
As for color, we had one person who always used red (you can try searching for [color=red] and see who comes up with 3000 results, but I'm not sure if it indexes tags,) and others are usually used by mods to draw attention to important stuff. If I post in color, you can use this handy scale to see how I'm feeling and how seriously you should take what I'm saying:
Yellow: miffed (Also: Thread closure imminent)
Yellow (directed at you): Read the fucking rules
Orange: irked
Orange (directed at you): next time you hit refresh, you're probably going to get a popup saying "New Private message. Subject: [Official Warning] ..."
Red (not directed at anyone): Pissed. Temp bans may start flying.
Red (directed at you): Word your next post carefully. While it's on the screen, it takes only 16 seconds to get to the mod/admin control panel and ban you.
