    Brief Description:
    Name colors are missing from pms and commands that list usernames with colors when on the Skyblock and Archive servers. They will show with their effects (bold, etc) but in light gray (&7) in pm's, and white when listed via commands.

    *edit* - Important note - name colors are proper when making normal chat posts such as to global or local.

    Instructions:
    PM or receive a PM from a user who is on the Skyblock or Archive server. Their name will be improperly colored grey regardless of the colors they have assigned.

    Use /rn, /rn **, near standing next to someone in skyblock, or any other command that pulls up a list containing player names. Their names will have the text effects but will be white.

    How many times did you recreate this?:
    5+

    Result:
    Names are grey in PMs, White in player-listing commands.

    Expected Result:
    Names have their nickname colors set by the player

    Evidence:

    PB's name is grey from sb and archive, but fine on SG (same colors used everywhere)

    All of these accounts are pilots, and should be yellow. Clar's name not included in this one, but it was bold white.

    Clar's name white via a /rn clar from main server.

    I've added this to our development todo list.
    Nearly impossible for me to explain what's going on here, would take too long, and although it seems like an easy fix, will need a shit ton of investigation to get down to the bottom of the issue due to all the backports and other crap we just did linking up certain things from 1.12.2 to 1.15.2.

    No ETA, but will be addressed when we can. <3
    For now deeming this not an important issue and focusing on a few other things going on.
