What do the green user names mean?
I looked in the FAQ and it says nothing, but I just noticed that some user names are green (both in the home page and in the comments inside links)
(for example, http://puu.sh/1C0y)
Is it that said users are new? (both the users I saw in green have created < 24 hours, so maybe that's it, but if anyone knows for sure… great :)) Green Accounts are for users who are under 5 days old. You can see all their submissions at - http://news.ycombinator.com/noobstories Thanks! I didn't know of that url. How did you find it? It doesn't seem to be linked anywhere in the site.
