MY EYES!

I will never be able to believe how the internet revealed the total percentage of idiots within the human race, it's literally shocking!

I will never ever understand why someone could choose to run around like a knight-samurai-Saracen. It would simply hurt my feelings of aesthetic and good look. No, not even "for the lulz", because dressing funny stopped being a good laugh at the age of... seven?

Not enough that you already implemented that fucking Weaboo and Ninja crap, now you also allow banners in neon colours? Can't this be moderated somehow? Giving some rules concerning the icon and the colours?
For example:

- no screenshots/photographies (the horse in the picture, for example)
- no items/things that didn't exist before 1600 (a car, a rifle, etc.)
- no letters ("TGC" - tight gangstas crew) unless implemented in some kind of banderoles with Gothic font (e.g. "Deus lo vult")
- no pictures which look "funny"
- no ugly colour combinations. Usage of complementary colours is advised.
- no picutres which do not look like made by a medieval artist and/or could not be embroidered onto a banner, excluding too soft colour gradients/shadows

This should basically restrict all banners to nothing else than what should fit to the banners we have already ingame.

Yes, I am quite intolerant in those matters.

Fuck you no it didn't. I'll have you know that my ballerina costume still invokes much laughter when I prance around the mall near my house screaming "FUCK THE POLICE" while tenderly groping any onlookers within arms reach.

Maybe someone can write a guide how to overwrite the ugliest banners?
Edit -> cmp said this is not viable because the launcher wil overwrite the banner every time you launch.

Even better would be a feature to list and replace banners on c-rpg.net, but i'm not sure such a feature has priority. I'd love to be able to replace the worst banners, like the neon pink one in the screenshot.
Edit -> the good news, for now, is that banners will be moderated. So i'm guessing the worst ones will be removed / forced to change.

That said, many of the banners are actually really cool. I was sceptical at first, but so far i find the whole new banner system very cool, aesthetically speaking...

Why don't YOU pay the 40-50k or MORE to get a banner? The only true requirements should be nothing offensive(racisim, porn) Colors can stay. You can't stand colors?

Great point you made there...

What for some is boring shit, is for others just the only acceptable style solution.

I don't have anything against a pink banner, I guess they existed back then and pink probably was not the gay colour it is nowadays, but please no neon pink. And if they want a horse, then please a drawn one, because back then people didn't have cameras and shit.

No selective realism. It's either ALL realistic or not. If in game isn't real, why then should the banners be?

The developers have drawn a line in many aspects. For example there will never be (ancient) Roman stuff, or gunpowder weapons. So there is a
clear timeframe of roughly the middle ages from 500ad to 1500ad. You can argue what you want, but at least the timeframe is there.

The same applies for the items. There are no double headed Barbarian axes or dragon shaped armour. It has only what existed at that period.

Actually I just noticed that the only thing where the developers are really inconsequent are the geographic regions of where the different items come from. Just treat cRPG as a mod which involves all warriors who lived during what we call the middle ages now.

Which again excludes neon colours and photographies of horses.

All banners must follow this:
Guide to Heraldry for Modern Peasant Arsewipes (http://www.angelfire.com/realm/durant/crestsymbols.htm)

Otherwise, Þou knaves dost forfeit truly Þine rites to heraldry, and shalt be identified only by Þine Christian name, lest we have greate numbers of unwholesum banners flying throughout.

This thread again.

tl;dr but here's my opinion:

1. This is fucking awesome, thanks for adding it.

2. If a server gets rolled by a clan then either accept that you're outmatched and leave the server or whatever like a little bitch or MAN UP and beat the crap out of that clan by yourself. YOU make your team, your team doesn't make you.

3. To any and all LARP/realism/milism turds crying about the custom banners: Just go fuck yourself and allow people to have some fun with their creativity. It also helps easing up on the seriousness which plagues this game. (from my part too sometimes I admit) If your eyes cannot bear the strain of watching TEXT on a banner (the horror!) then you can just edit your own files anyway.


Maybe someone can write a guide how to overwrite the ugliest banners?
Edit -> cmp said this is not viable because the launcher wil overwrite the banner every time you launch.

Launch the game directly through the WSE loader? Ofc you'd need to update your custom banners every time there's a major patch, but just save a copy and that's less than 1 min of work.

How to play without custom banners: Use an old launcher (I still got Bob Jackson (yes I named my launcher that) lying around, he's the oldest launcher out there, and we love him, and if you pay me 150k I'll PM you with a download link to Bob Jackson, the original launcher).

Also Digglez, get that dick out of your ass, feeling all offended by rage_guy 'n' shitz just 'cuss he is somewhat making fun of you getting fudgepacked by 60 year old men.

If you want to make dick jokes, at least pick an old roman picture of 2 guys buggering each other as a banner -- That way it won't be pink and will be at least SLIGHTLY period-like.

If you're of any age I gotta say you sure didn't learn proper English, and fuck you, Templars is a way lamer clan than SoA, not that I got a problem with most Templars though, just sayin', SoA is more awesome.
I'm also in ST6, and I'm the 2nd in command of the clan known as Kafeins Bitches, both worth more than your shit.

The fact you think penis jokes are still funny clearly shows how retarded you are :) most people get past the LOL PENIS stage at an early age. but then that is the bane of the internet. little kids thinking they are lolzy posting cocks.

This is why i dislike this change. if i wanted to look at cocks i would search google for cocks :/ im sure someone somewhere finds you amusing zlisch and dezi your a damn fake turk and you lol at me? :D

Dear retard, I'd appreciate it if you decide to go around trash talking my clan just because you got a grudge against me, I know you're an asshole and some old sterile guy who thinks he got authority, and I know dem yungerns be not respecting your infallible claim to authority and shit, but that doesn't mean you should go off insulting random people you might've never seen before based on what someone who are in their clan says.

Also, as stated, you're in Templar, even Herkkutatti (I secretly love you too btw) thinks you guys are bigger retards.

So now, turn off your PC in your old peoples home and commit suicide considering the fact that you're a waste of life and that you can't tell when you gotta piss anymore.
EDIT: And if you weren't no sterile old my old friend who didn't understand the shit that's going on around him while the people at his home are busy changing his diaper and that Kafeins Bitches is probably more of a fucking joke and me earning cash than me thinking I'm some fucking "cewl guy" 'cuss I ain't afraid to write bitch.
Title: Re: That banner is so F***ing pink
Post by: Dezilagel on June 02, 2012, 12:27:41 am
You don't seem to get it.

A pink banner with a badly drawn penis is in most cases not a funny or creative banner no, but in this case where it's used by Merciless who have a reputation for being underage and immature it becomes quite an intricate joke/statement.

My point is: While we'll no doubt see a bunch of stupid, boring banners if we give people time and loose restrictions I think a lot of great and fun banners could spring from the combined creativity of the c-rpg players.

Regardless of how underage or immature a person is, I still prefer them to the twats who sit on their high horse yelling "snark, everyone here is such a child, unlike me who: 1. Play the game for what it TRULY is, a medieval combat simulator. 2. Corrects your grammar as a means of arguing. 3. Wants more pikes and archers because battles simply shouldn't be won by individual players (I'm beyond that) but by 'teamwork' etc..."

That's not what I said. This example was merely to show that you shouldn't immediately judge a banner simply because of its 'striking aesthetics' (sorry), and that there might be more to a pink penis banner than first perceived.

As said also, with loose restrictions will no doubt come a few stupid banners, but why should anyone care really? It's the guy wearing the banner who makes a fool out of himself, and if you can't stand the eyesore then you can just edit it anyway. Give people the chance to play around a little and I think it'll ease up the tension and make way for some creativity and unpretentious fun (Heraldic armors make for great costumes with custom banners for example).

In this, I see emptiness, sorrow and grief.

It serves as a reminder to all just how empty and pointless life eventually is; the pointlessness and sheer stupidity of the artwork itself reminding us of our own place in the greater existence.

What is the nature of God when HIS image creates such things as these?

"God doesn't care about us" seems to be the statement made by this artwork; a frightening thought to man who consider himself superior to most, but when destitute engages in such pointless creation.

After seeing this image, a symbol of life, but at it's most bleak, shallow and simple I grieve man and his fate of pointless existence.

For example:

- no items/things that didn't exist before 1600 (a car, a rifle, etc.)
- no letters ("TGC" - tight gangstas crew) unless implemented in some kind of banderoles with Gothic font (e.g. "Deus lo vult")

Fuck...I actually agree with Dezilagel  :|

Anyway, pink penis banner is a little over the line. I wouldn't allow it in the pack...but then I also allow things like SS and Pro so what do I know  :rolleyes:

As long as it looks like a banner, isn't offensive and isn't just a picture slapped on a plain background in paint but uses the standard banner as a base, it's fine by me.
