I’ve always had a problem for players on the red team on WvW. The color red is used to display enemies in the UI, whereas blue and green colors are used to display friendlies in the UI therefore players will tend to target the red players and things may go wrong.
Here’s what I suggest the team colors should be:
Yellow(#FFFF00),
Fuchsia(#FF00FF), and
Aqua(#00FFFF).
These high visibility colors should make players stand out more as a benefit, and there would be less players targeting the wrong team.

So what exactly are you suggesting?

Let me just check and make sure I’m reading this correctly, and please do correct me if I’m wrong.

EXAMPLE:
Matchup: Server X- Fuchsia, Server Y-Yellow, Server Z-Aqua

Say my server is Fuchsia for the week, under your proposed idea when I am running around in WvW, Server Y’s enemy tag color would be Yellow, and Server Z’s tag color would be aqua? So in a 3-way battle, I know exactly without reading the tag which server the player I am attacking is from?

Or do you mean the armor color on low graphics? Player’s on Server X have fuchsia armor, Y yellow armor, Z aqua armor?

EDIT: Side note, color blind peoples would absolutely dread this change…

Put this option in the hands of the player, dont dictate what the colours are, have a default colour sure. But allow customisation, i dont like the fact my group members are blue, in a pitched battle id prefer their names to be hi-vis yellow or something easily discernible. And yes different colour names for the 2 different realms, again customisable by the player.

Every player is different and putting this sort of option into the players hands is the best way to proceed.
