Title: The Great Banner Purge
Post by: cmp on June 24, 2012, 01:41:30 pm
Thanks to the newest site update, we now have the tools to moderate clans, including banners.
Clans with obvious trolling banners (paint-drawn penises, portrait photos...) will lose their rights to a banner, and will have to purchase them again.
Clans with banners that we deem ugly will have the current banner removed. If they upload the same banner again, they will have their banner rights removed.

There are no specific guidelines about what we consider ugly, but as a rule of thumb you should avoid anything that stands really out of place (photos, fluorescent colors, modern fonts, plastic-looking banners...). If you are unsure whether your banner is acceptable, come ask me or other moderators in IRC.

We will probably establish more banner guidelines as we go, to give people an idea what's ok and what not. That will take time to figure out, though. For those with some, use common sense meanwhile.

Create a forum section for "banner applications".
Set some people to oversee it and act as an approval committee.
People can create threads and post their banners and the committee can tell them if it's okay and if not, why.

Ideally you would have to go through the committee to get your banner uploaded but it could be "optional" in the sense that if you don't run it by the committee, you risk losing your banner.

There is no commies in Calradia. This is the Duchy of free russkies people(Team Russia). All connections with the real countries are random. So the banner fits the game.

By the way, Russian team won the Nations Cup 2010 with this banner.

Post by: Nessaj on June 24, 2012, 04:34:09 pm
Moderation for banners, good. Having avoided the regular banner pack almost forever it was quite discouraging to see the 'lulz' banners suddenly forced upon all players.

Those who dislike the change, ask yourselves why exactly is it so important for you that your banner is visible to everyone? Cause and effect. It has nothing to do with identification.

Everyone can use whatever banner they like, simply edit the banner files which is extremely easy, but of course when there's no 'effect' to using those obscene banners suddenly it isn't "fun".
There is absolutely zero down-side to banner moderation - except potential delays regarding submissions/changes etc.

However, regarding that; why not make all submitted banners add to a list where moderators can quickly accept or deny them for the launcher, instead of having people manually message everyone, seems like quite the hassle. You already have something similar for name changes you should be able to replicate. Let clans change the background colour freely though.

If you want to please everyone: Could add something similar to a "Family filter" e.g. people tick their banner uploads as 'Obscene' (or whatever label :P) - then all those banners tagged as 'Obscene' will show as their normal slot banners to those who have the "Family filter" (medieval filter!) on, and all those who want the obscene banners can switch off the filter.

He called himself Pixel Paladin and that is represented by the banner in a fine and normal way.

Post by: Holo33 on June 25, 2012, 05:14:08 am
So, I have a question about this...
Why are the banners removed for those reasons when I've seen much more from the official banners that's worse. I just find it unfair that our banner which was a duck and clearly standing for "Rhoduckia" was removed. It stood for our faction... It may have looked cartoonish, but what about the official ones? Semenstorms banner looks cartoonish, but is an official one. Noobs 4 Boobs has nothing to do with realism and most kids wouldn't find that a very good banner, and then there is one with a cat wearing a helmet, and a pig with many hands. So, I understand ones such as Elmo getting some "luvvy time" not a good banner, but why the Rhoduckians duck? It just doesn't make sense to me...

I would have asked on IRC, but this website is evil and IRC hides from me...

Great job devs.

If someone want to have own banner at last read some Rules of Heraldry.

International Heraldry - http://www.internationalheraldry.com/

Also remember in middle ages they didn't have laser printers so when you making a banner make it with just few components (not complicated ones).

Either a forum for banner discussion is needed, so people can get an idea of what and what not to submit by looking at good examples. Or moderation is needed on submission. So if a banner is rejected upon submission the people can be told why with a quick message. Rather than having to seek out extended routes to discuss banners.

If you are unsure whether your banner is acceptable, come ask me or other moderators in IRC.

i would like to suggest an exception rule for extra-creative banners (such as the tux banner) - so heraldric and good craft applies but if it's not medieval looking but instead really cool and fresh, people should be allowed to use it. no?

If they enforce rules of tincture and traditional heraldic symbols then they will have to put up a guide of what all those are and how to use them or most people's banners are gonna get denied lol

...it will probably be more general rules like:  no sexual imagery, no faces, no wording, no flourescent/very bright colors, etc

You want to ruin best game/mod ever with this circus. If you don't like it go and play The Sims or some other shit - they have plenty tuxedos.

I understand if some of players are immature, so things like this are fun, but for me this is temporary best medieval simulator and I take it very seriously.
Anyway my eyes bleed already when I see how samurai and ninjas running around.

As it happens, einstein and the chocolate chip cookie party actually plagiarised the design, which dates back from the Indus Valley Civilization (3300–1300 BCE), so in theory if you made a role-play clan with that as your theme you could rightly incorporate something like:

Yes, your take on it is extremely one-sided. If you ignore the dozens of troll threads and posts by Americans where they straight-faced verbally masturbate to how awesome they are and their country is the greatest, etc. I guess that wouldn't fit in with your martyrdom complex though. Why is the US flag the only one with this problem? Why are you even comparing it to to a flag that doesn't exist anymore? Why haven't the french or the british or the germans or literally any other nationality tried to get their modern day flag ingame?

Tbh I think there is about the same amount of retards in EU and NA. Fortunately many European tards from countries with a dominant native language(France, Germany, Russia, Italy) tend to stay below the radar in english forums because they just don't feel confident enough to troll/rage in english.

On the other side we get the full package from NA as well from European countries with a weak local language like the Benelux or Scandinavian countries. Unfortunatly the level of english is pretty high there - even among the feeble-minded. But in sum American idiots tend to surface more, while EU hides their gems in the local language forums.

Perhaps there's an approval thing we have to wait for? I didn't read the announcement forums when they initially cut all the banners so when I saw that my banner was removed I thought it was just a website hiccup or something so I reuploaded the same one. Today is the first time I saw this thread so I promptly uploaded a new one that's more run-of-the-mill but the client hasn't wanted to update the banner texture so far (the one that shows up in game currently is the old one) :?

There are no specific guidelines about what we consider ugly, but as a rule of thumb you should avoid anything that stands really out of place (photos, fluorescent colors, modern fonts, plastic-looking banners...). If you are unsure whether your banner is acceptable, come ask me or other moderators in IRC.

I'd call the MM banner borderline, but at least it's a stylized drawing and not an in-game screenshot. You're a kidder if you thought that would get through.

Exactly, it's a screenshot from this game we all play, this medieval game, so what's the problem?

It might not be something you would have seen on a medieval battlefield, but the same can be said for the MM banner and what to think of the KGB banner which is a cartoonish looking glass of beer.

But if you don't like the face, at least give me a chance to alter it in someway, now you just took my slot because as the message I received states: 'you've already had your banner removed before, your slot is now revoked.'

It's not like my previous banner was some horrible troll like a bright coloured penis or something, it was a well-made banner that gave everyone a good laugh, and afaik no one got offended by.

 :idea:

If you want to please everyone: Could add something similar to a "Family filter" e.g. people tick their banner uploads as 'Obscene' (or whatever label :P) - then all those banners tagged as 'Obscene' will show as their normal slot banners to those who have the "Family filter" (medieval filter!) on, and all those who want the obscene banners can switch off the filter.

 :idea:
Title: Re: The Great Banner Purge
Post by: TomMyyY on July 10, 2012, 02:07:20 pm
Yeah something like that would be great, or make some kind of forum thread where people can make posts if they don't like a certain banner, then make a poll about the banner and if more than 50% don't like a banner it goes.

That way the horrible obscene banners just get voted off and the banners people don't mind can stay.

cmp's call -- I asked him whether to default or kill the slot. Since this is a new system, so far I've made a point of clearing every move with him.

Anyway, the starter post in this thread does state that any borderline cases should be cleared with the admins first, otherwise they risk sanction.

Only the thought lets me shiver but I agree with Casimir.
It was stated several times  that you don't care/can't be arsed to do the whole community thing. Instead of writing one single PM with "remove the banner or the slot gets removed", you just hop in, delete it straight away - which would obviously create even more drama. Oh wait, it actually did create more drama... -.-

I get the impression it all comes down to shitty communication. Instruct the admins in a proper way and be done with it. I mean "System is new, so I rather asked..." Seriously?!  :rolleyes:

Anyway, in this case I apologize. It didn't read that way before.
On the other hand, you've (not only cmp but the staff) ignored suggestions to open up a forum section where people can post their banner which then get acknowledged or dismissed by staff. Any admin can check those thread and just write "yes" or "no" - saves the hassle of deleting afterwards. At least a bit... (still some retards won't get it, I know).

I had my share of being admin/GM on a pretty big Lineage 2 private server (during high times a player base of 2000 - 2500) and I know how thickheaded and annoying people can be but from my point of view it just seems that the staff lacks proper organization and communication... Maybe? Just a tiny bit? A tiny tiny bit?

Not my business... just wondering...  8-)

Well yes, you or some other mod did send me a message, to tell me my slot has been removed because of a second offense. I guess I should have gone on IRC and just ask you guys about the banner, but I didn't really think it would be a problem looking at other banners I had seen in-game.

Like I said before, the MM banner doesn't strike me as medieval at all, it's just.. a weird face, so I went with that. But I won't say anything else about it, you guys removed the slot and that's fair. I realise now I can't really use the slot for anything I intended anyway so I don't really need it back, I just have to do with the great memories of that week I spent in a tuxedo :D.

Why was the new Rhoduckia banner removed? It was like a green spiderweb but green with an R on it. I honestly don't see why our banners are getting removed. Do our banners need to be a blank green? Would that work? Cause everything we make is "Ugly" and I honestly disagree...

Honestly, you guys are not being fair at all. You take down certain banners when the normal banners are worse or "Ugly". But, I'm not shocked if you completely look past my posts, because you seem to do so anyways. Have a good one! Last time I want a banner... Not worth the gold.

My point exactly, I just think people as a whole have to move away from this symbol being related to chocolate chip cookies and only bad things. Maybe if they'd talk about it in school in more details than "chocolate chip cookies lol cute puppy is bad chocolate chip cookie r bad".

The usage of symbols changes with time. Same with words.

Given our modern history, someone displaying the cute puppy and saying he does not mean it as a chocolate chip cookie symbol but as... this or that.. is either lying or has somehow managed to miss picking up on 20th century history entirely.

I like how civil this discussion (about cute puppies) is Even with people disagreeing, they still manage to respect each others opinion and recognize why they have a different view. Especially the two posts above me.

Kudos to you all!

Time passes.

The way of "chocolate chip cookie chocolate chip cookie chocolate chip cookie" arguing this subject is so 2006.  :mrgreen:

Not that it doesn't happen rarely, but yeah.

Your clan

Only proper, medieval-style banners are allowed in the mod. If you keep using banners that clash with the setting, you will lose your banner slot.

Hmmm...I don't think the banner adjustments are for realism.  It's to cultivate an type of atmosphere...a spirit of the game.  A certain "Terroir" or "Genius Loci." 

It's hard to pinpoint exactly, but I think most people don't want to play medieval clown circus combat simulator....so it makes sense to me.

Besides, jokes are funnier when done with a serious face. :)
I'm commend the banner filtering.

2: was the usa banner actually a usa flag or some trolly usa like flag(i didnt see it)? and if it was actually the usa flag why is it banned yet the ussr flag just fine?

thank you for your response to my questions

yes i suppose its a good idea to remove the trolly ones of course

but when someone puts up a legitimate flag of their country as their banner to have it removed seems messed up to me

(of ANY country)

That being said. The USSR flag is something that might have fit in and been used in the medieval age. A hammer and a sickle and a star with a red background? Seems like something that could have been used by a crafting&farming sentered lord/town/culture/whatever. The US flag on the other hand, is just too..... fancy. The stars and stripes looks nice and is a good flag for a country from the 1700's and later, but it's not something you would expect to see in a feudal system or something.

I dunno, I just think the USSR flag (farming equipment) doesn't look that out of place.

Nothing wrong with it Strudog, nice of you to try and get it removed though.Would not expect anything less considering your manner in game.

I checked with Meow the day I made the banner and it was accepted.

Anyway here is some history of the 3 lions crest:

The Three Lions came into existence through the reign of Richard I, the Lionheart, around the turn of the twelfth century, as the official Royal Coat of Arms of England, and remained so for the next 140 years.

When Richard I came to the throne, so too did his personal coat of arms.  The 'three lions passant guardant in pale' appeared in gold on a red background.  Before this point, only two golden lions had adorned a red crest, following the Norman Conquest of 1066 (the House of Normandy).

Did the crest really include an "ENGLAND" title on top of it, written in what seems to be ARIAL?

Post by: Strudog on August 29, 2012, 12:15:55 pm
i have nothing wrong with having 3 lions on your crest but do it properly, there is a difference between the English football crest and the Medieval English three lions, if you think that banner existed in the medieval times, you need to go and do some research

I checked with Meow the day I made the banner and it was accepted.

That is not entirely true :mrgreen:

What I said is that I won't remove it but that it's totally possible one of the other guys who got banner control doesn't think it fits.
I also said that in case that happens you will most likely get the chance to reupload a new banner instead of having your slot removed since that only happens when people keep uploading the banner that got removed already (multiple times most likely) or for stuff where the uploader is aware that it will get him into trouble before he uploads it :wink:

Think I also said that you might wanna kill the text on it and work the blue box into the banner but I don't remember and am too lazy to check the logs :mrgreen:
Still don't think it will be removed though.
Way worse banners out there.

Your banner has been reset to default, you can upload a new one that is more fitting into the medieval theme of the mod.
 Rule of thumb: No cheesy, comic, gimmicky, nsfw or offensive stuff, no photos.
 
Thanks.
 
Repeatedly uploading unfitting banners will lead to a removal of your exclusive banner slot.
