Hello. (I know you!)  
The forum you are in, Dark Gaming, has a BBCode color extension installed. However, I agree that it is annoying to type bbcode in manually, especially when dealing with colors.

**my concept:** there should be a dropdown menu for colors on forums running this plugin, a color selector. Like, this one in a seperate forum:

adding the #bbcode-color tag since the forum has that extension: [Discourse BBCode Color](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-bbcode-color/65363)
