Blue equals sarcasm. 

The context of what I quoted was sufficient to convey this, however.

I like the full radar, but it seems to really bring out the gamy crap in play. Pickers who extend 5k after each pass, of turny planes that do nothing but pull for the HO. Flying alone is useless as there is never just 1 or 2 vectoring towards you but 4 and 5.

I'll try again later when there are more people on as well as a few friends to fly with. I pick and HO all night and see how it goes.

Since the dawn of color coding within bulletin boards.  It wasn't necessary given the context but I threw it in any way.

"Sarcastic blue."

That could describe most players but it especially fits a certain member of your squad as soon as advantage is lost.

To understand true love, lock your dog and your wife in the trunk of your car for an hour and then see which one is glad to see you when you come back
