I can't understand how this is inappropriate yet cum with a smiley face is not.That has been taken off as well.
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.
Who's "us"? The obvious trolls giggling like schoolgirls because their banners have anthropomorphic sperm and cuddly unicorns on it? What makes you think this is the "main" playerbase of crpg, and not a subset of 4chan/goon fanboys out to ruin the atmosphere of the game because it's "fun" to them, just like it's "fun" to ruin every other thing. Devs went through the trouble of setting up a system where people could have their own banners, they can very well choose what type of banner is acceptable.
They could just go back to a pre-approved list of appropriate banners like it was in the past and practically every other warband mod, then they wouldn't have to deal with retarded bronies and trolls trying to put the latest internet meme on a banner for shits and giggles. That would suck for all the people who legitimately used the banner system, but they're not the "main" playerbase of course, the 'tarded trolls are :rolleyes:.

I would like to use this banner now. The thing is it has been used by the Hungarian gentleman Istvan Varallyay:

Perhaps for their new game. This mod is still in beta right? They haven't even completed a mod for a game, yet they want money for a new game? How many years has this mod been out for?
Edit: Do these devs not realize we will be the main playerbase at the start of this new game? Or do they think it will be sooooo revolutionary that our influence will be null?
Oh no, someone took away freedom from Americans! PREPARE THE NUKES!
Seriously, why is it 90% of NA players complaining about it in this thread, while EU is mostly silent or supports the purging of derp banners? I know why, btw, it's a rhetorical question.
That's a coat of arms, not a banner?It cant be coat of arms yet. It doesnt have supporters and it doesnt have a motto. So it can be a banner or an amblem or w/e else. But it aint coat of arms.
I would prefer that my thread not be derailed by a critique of NA players and EU players. Not only is this counterproductive but some people seem to have deep feelings about these kind of claims. Please take your European superiority/American superiority arguments elsewhere.

Uh, feel free? I don't see anything wrong with it.
all people that can ban it
:lol:
Why are you trying to force realism in terms of banners?
Why are the devs trying to shove their beliefs down our throats.
Why won't the devs let us have what we want?

Welp.... I was bored(click to show/hide)
I'm sorry that the uniderp in the FLOATING BUBBLE OVER MY HEAD ruined your sense of immersion.
(click to show/hide)
I have banners disabled. Because the floating bubble ruins my sense of immersion no matter what banner is displayed within. But the banner is also displayed on heraldic armors and shields, so your point is kinda moot.
Yes, deleting banners with pink unicorns and smiling sperm is trying to force realism.
Fuck the police.

I see the point, innapropriate or too modern stylised stuff is removed. To be accepted it should at least look like a banner but not like just an image.
Well, about that hand with a fish.... I really don't like it, but I don't see why should it be removed.

But a guy with sunglasses from a late 90's movie is OK?
Okay, let's keep nationality out of it, then. So we have troll banner supporters that whine because their freedom was taken away, and we have those that understand why this is necessary.
BTW: If trolling wasn't your main goal with such banners, you would simply make a banner that follows the guidelines, and then edit the banner texture file locally, so you could have your derp banner without infringing on the banner rules. But here you are whining about your freedom of trolling being restricted instead.
Now this was a good argument and I think I have a response. Part of the reason we enjoyed using the banner was because it said something about our group of people. It said that we liked to have fun, that we weren't angry tryhards nor spergy nerds. Is that not the reason everyone uses banners, to say something about themselves? To have some sense of identity? Using a pre-made banner says nothing about your clan other then the fact that you are too poor to afford a banner slot. When we banner stacked we didn't troll entire servers, we played by the rules and helped our team. Is that not what really matters in the end?Needing to say that makes you a spergy tryhard, sorry.

Fuck the police.
Did Mercs banner get removed?no

Yeah, that's why I used "sooner or later".
chadz should get a proper PR dude. all of these EuroDevzTM are horrendously bad at interacting with the community (esp. u paul). it's pre funny watching these threads pop up and the devs give apathetic responses every time. :-)
This is clear discrimination against my old friendchers and I declare this to be a hate crime.
And obviously the purgatory immersion fetish folks don't give a fuck about game realism otherwise - and have no clue about how colorful and creative and obscene imagery (or heraldry) in medieval times actually was.
For ATTS, this might be a nice replacement (all images from medieval sources):
or full image incl. shooter here: http://d.pr/i/yhLS
for the "dear admin in charge of banners" this good medieval practice might be recommended:
inside the mind of cav players:
and my general thoughts about the banner matter:
Yeah, we'll have guidelines sooner or later. In the meantime, if you're unsure whether your banner is legit or not, you can assume it's not.
Let me give you a hint: if you want a 100% serious response from devs you don't start your thread with stuff like
Yeah, we'll have guidelines sooner or later. In the meantime, if you're unsure whether your banner is legit or not, you can assume it's not.
