Swastika banner.

[DarK!]

How is it consider illegal/bannable in our zone if it has no original intention of being hurtful to anyone.

"The English and German word SWASTIKA is derived from the Sanskrit word: SVASTIKAH, which means 'being fortunate'. "

See for yourself.

Dark!> ?cheater HAHAHAHA Nothing can stop me now!

[Sleepy Weasel]

Dark, people have argued this point about 10,000 times on this forum already.

But why would it matter if it has no ORIGINAL intention of being hurtful. At this period in time it is a hurtful symbol, and if you don't think so you're just deluding yourself. Why would people ask for the ban of it if it didn't bother anyone? The fact is it does, and there is no good reason why anyone needs to fly the swastica banner, the only people who use it are just children who think they are being shocking and rebellious.

Hey, did you guys know that the original meaning of the swastika was Life, Love, etc etc etc?

Check me out, I'm only the 67th person to bring up an unoriginal point!

[Neodis]

You have a good point on the origin of the thing. But that's all that it is, the original meaning, many people don't know that because the meaning has changed from it's origin, it no longer stands for the same thing. It represents hatred now, it has been corrupted and thus must be discarded. If you wish to use something representing love and the like you should choose a symbol more recognizable. Otherwise you are a hypocrite and merely looking for shock value.

pot is illigal but banners of it are still allowed :P

so poo in a shoe and put it on your foot

[DarK!]

The nazi regime has long passed.

Also Sleepy, there are Germans that play this game, i am part German, so some people MIGHT have a valid excuse to wear one, unless they are like you said, childish and immature. Im still not going to wear one, even if they were legal, wth they still dont look all that good, atleast not as good as my joint banner, or potleaf banner. $

Dystrophy: Yes, i am netbanned, why do u think my name tag and signature say so

[Reclusion]

And this guy was a mod?

Good eye, TW Staff!!

[Machine of God]

dark was a kickass mod, one of the few that actually answered cheater calls

[stark]

dark, weren't you the one that was gonna ban me for it?

[DarK!]

Maybe, i dont remember, but being a Mod doesnt mean I can let you wear it because i think it isnt bad, i need to follow the rules. But now that im not mod, fuck it, wear it all you want.

Reclusion: I was netbanned for something that was totally unrelated to Trench Wars. however it was related to every other SSC zone, hence the netban. If you think i really cared about being Mod, or even TW for that matter, do you really think i would have done this?

And look at him now!

The only reason others don't answer is because they're busy banning folks for (not) spamming. GO FIGURE!

[Machine of God]

dark was kicked for spamming?

[DarK!]

Hell, maybe one of you will get hired as a ZH, to fill in for the <ZH> that was promoted to <ER>, <ER> to Mod etc... Maybe then you will thank me, who knows. But as it stands now, everytime i log into TW and see the Ban Text (My sig) it makes me laugh, i needed a break from this game, and i got it one way or another i guess.

Something else that made me laugh. After Nurples executed the NetBan on me, i was still able to play for over 3 hours, but only in Trench Wars and only on the name DarK! since "You cant ban an operator" , then Spam got on and axed/*kill'd me since i was afk.
