Guest Has an Orange Name When the Cursor is Hovered Over Them

How does Patented Cupid’s name appear orange when my cursor is hovered over it?
As seen in the screenshot, he is not even a Member.

They are on a mediumcore character. Mediumcore characters normally have orange names, just like hardcore characters where they have red names.

Is that so?

I never knew this nor do I know any article on the Official Terraria Wiki about this.

Their character difficulty by name color shows up as well in vanilla chat; orange for Mediumcore, red for Hardcore. If you want video examples, CrabBar had done a few videos on THC, and you can observe the red Hardcore text/names there. And from Terracorps (Khaios’ series/event(?) that he made as the effective Terraria equivalent to Hermitcraft), where players play with Mediumcore characters, the orange text can be observed.
