HOLY!!!!

NA is the most diversified patchwork of gear in CRPG. NA doesn't follow themes, it follows its heart. Fuck off with your "THEME THIS" bullshit.  This isn't EU1, and EU1 doesn't define CRPG.

Wow, locking thread cause he can't handle any discussion over it. Get over yourself.

People who have trollish banners are probably  10% of the NA population.

First of all the bear is my forum avatar, not my in game banner  :lol:

What you fail to see is this, everday I see new players on EU1 who try to follow a theme, either that be Middle eastern, Russian, Nordic, Byzantine etc etc.

Having people running around with anime banners or any other crappy banner , A) Fucks the immersion of the game and B) Removes a banner slot, that could`ve been used by a new clan which follows a certain theme.

And no one made me nothing, I just pointed some fucked up banners and a moderator removed them, because guess what, THEY WERE BREAKING THE BANNER RULES.

To start off, I'd like for you to post your banner in the thread, just so I have something to work off when I make us a new banner because FLAME PICKLE BAD.
For your argument, I don't really know what your impressionable EU peasant crowd is doing on NA (leeching DTV? Seriously take back your fucking 13 shield leechers with 300 ping) but I sincerely doubt that an EU newbie is going to stumble into a NA server, spy a custom banner, seize up while simultaneously kicking the power button on his computer and killing the influx of new players.
For your quotes about immersion, if you really care so much, I do believe you can play WITHOUT WSE2 to receive the good'ol Native banners. Couple this with your point about there not being enough banners to go around, seriously? I count 10 right now on the Auctions, and bound to be more going up soon now that many were cut.

Oh and don't worry about me buddy, I'll fling shit with the best of them (as long as I don't immortalize it on a banner, heaven forbid.)

Fun fact: TKoV, hospitaller, and FCC are not even nearly as active as clans such as MB. I would go as far as to say that MB is more active than all of those clans combined. In NA the clans that have "troll banners" tend to be far more active and have less people who join the clan then disappear. NA is finally regaining population lately after the longest time of having 40-50 people at primetime. Don't kill it.

Not everyone has the same aesthetic ideals, and removing custom banners will only serve to further depopulate the already stagnant if not declining player base.

I'm not implying that at all. I assume that the devs don't really play c-rpg as of late because of their other project and thus couldn't see the banners. NA would have most likely not been effected whatsoever by this except that you decided to bring it up.

Your assumptions are not my implications.

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.

Without even bringing up the fact that this post is from 2012, he only specifically says no penises nor portraits.
Where we get into the gritty details is the definition of an ugly banner, (without posting a picture of Panos) personally I feel that one person isn't a good enough judge to deem whether or not a whole slew of banners should be trashed, as a lot of the banners you pointed out didn't contain any of the BIG NO-NOS

I didn't know the FCC had a theme.

For a while we were rocking the Wendy's girl banner, and then Mortal Kombat logo, then a lion, then something else, then the old 2.0 banner, now I think it is green..

Edit: You're ruining my fun.
This is the greatest and most freedomish banner ever created and it was taken away from me last year, I've yet to recover from this encroachment upon my CIVIL RIGHTS.

Basically he is the current standard for how much a player can get away with in terms of breaking rules and being a mean person. Everyone is allowed 36 regular bans and 4 perma-bans before one really gets perma-banned from this community.

On a scale from 0 to 10, the political incorrectness of this is 50. I really thought you were a nice guy even after everyone started hating you, but your current QQ about funny banners is just unfair. Look at yourself before you criticize others.

You better pay back your debt, since you owe 250k to a lot of players including me. Why are you so desperately looking for enemies?

Not allowing custom banners is similar to taking half the fun out of the game. Sometimes, people don't just play for domination and competition, they just play because they enjoy the medieval simulator and like the gameplay.

I can't speak for EU, but  of the largest factions, GoW, MB, FCC, and more sometimes largely use custom fun banners(MB having 175 players, FCC having 161, and GoW having 116). That hardly looks like 10% of the population, and this does not even include the clans with less than 100 people in them.

Besides, we NA people like holiday banners too! Would almost all of our banners be blacklisted if we used I.E. Chaos for an example, spooky tree during the holiday season?

Seriously... it's colorful, includes medieval-related things (unicorn + bow and arrow)... 10/10 for realism.

pickle will not rest.

Also people commonly flew a banner of a leaf, fish, or [insert really random item here]... so what is wrong with flying a banner of a pickle?

I personally don't care much about banners, ofc I like realistic and themed ones more but I realize another people might have different taste and prefer different banners (Like Mercs' one).
But when I see something ugly and stupid, like Semenstorm banner,
http://c-rpg.net/index.php?page=ladderoverviewclans#!?page=claninfodetail&id=2464
I can't believe such banners might be fun for adult people.

As for the topic, I don't see why everyone blames Panos. He didn't do anything. He just pointed out some banners he didn't like. It's NOT his responsibility they were actually removed. Blame devs or the rules you don't like, otherwise it looks like "We were secretly abusing banner rights, and this guy just let the admins know and now we're fucked, fuck this guy".

Sooo.....who is starting the Global Ban Request on Panos  :mrgreen:


Dev's are trying to clean up mod I assume, so how about get rid of the trolls that consistently break rules?


I somehow feel that CMP grew fond of Panos so much that he would actually dearly miss him if anything bad was to happen to the poor sob and my intuition rarely fails me. There is an invisible link between these two persons, a geekster and a Greekster.

It is very common to moderate these things in any online game to make sure no one gets offended or put off by the things certain players put up. cRPG is one of very few online games where you can see sperm or penis banners and I think it is ridiculous that you feel entitled to having that. I don't see why the official opinion from the devs from 2012 would no longer count, and yes all of the banners posted by Panos broke these rules. You should feel lucky that you have been able to use them, instead of outraged at their removal.

Many of you Americans do not understand this because of your lack of any noteworthy or interesting history or any taste whatsoever, but many Europeans have an affinity with history and prefer to have a degree of authenticity, also we actually have a sense of style. It takes one look at the armour combinations that people wear on NA and on EU to see this difference. Regardless of your understanding of this, developers, even American ones, have nearly always chosen to moderate custom images and names to make sure everybody can enjoy the game and to ensure a reasonable degree of immersion in a setting. I can assure you that any new releases like Melee or if Bannerlord would ever support custom banners, would definitely feature banner moderation or a highly restrictive banner maker like WotR.

That said, cRPG is probably a lost soul and due to the inconsistent and sparse banner moderation in the past and we should probably just give up on it. I can ridicule the enjoyment you get out of ugly banners as much as you can ridicule the immersion we get from not having them, but I guess it is too late now anyway. I hope Melee will not let these things slide, actually I am pretty sure it won't.

People who have trollish banners are probably  10% of the NA population.

Hospitallers, FCC, Veluca, Occitan, Frisian, all follow a certain theme, so please spare me with your bullshit about me ruining your fun.

I never said it wasn't, so I have no idea how you've come to the conclusion that I don't know about its origins. What I meant to say is that many EU players use it as a viking-themed armour, when in fact it's got little to nothing to do with vikings.

Now, people should be allowed to wear whatever they wish, but blaming NA players for lack of 'historical authenticity' while EU players are hardly different in that regard just reeks of hypocrisy.

Doesn't matter history my old friends gon history my old friend. In an almost dead mod you're trying to restrict choices players have even more and squeeze the balls of the remaining players tighter than ever before with the rules.


Trust me when i tell you that having more non-fun, more realistic, more medieval banners won't lead to more players playing CRPG. All it does is make this mod even more boring, and less fun. (Yes having a happy sperm guy on your shield is awesome in many peoples minds).

The Rus were never more than a relatively small elite ruling over a much larger Slavic population. Moreover, they quickly adopted the Slavic language and largely broke with their Scandinavian roots, turning to the Eastern Roman Empire instead. By the time kuyaks were introduced in the 13th century they could no longer be considered vikings.

Yeah well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Teeth, I was a history major for maybe three years at university and love history and the middle ages. The culture, art, and general mojo of previous people is cool. However, my interest in history is actually not an excuse to be an insufferable Mountain Dew lord.

The difference between your desire to see only historically believable banners and the opinion of the majority of the people in this thread is that yours is totally exclusive and ours is not. You would officially place restrictions on other players' fun-time, whereas relaxed custom banner restrictions would, at most, hurt the "immersion" of a select few individuals, who would nonetheless be allowed to play with their desired banners.

You can use a nice, super-duper banner from fucking real life if you want and enjoy your little medieval fun-time with all your traditionalist internet friends. Fine. I would like to be able to use the occasionally ridiculous banner with my probably autistic internet friends. It's funny. And, I would like to note, that it is funny in large part because there still exist individuals willing to use normal, historically accurate banners in opposition to whom the likes of Semen Storm might be contrasted.

Your argument for the superiority of European values, spewed over the internet like so much shit from between the clenched ass cheeks of a diuretic, is so bad that it makes everybody who reads it physically closer to dying and you should feel bad for typing that.

You argue that your immersion is ruined by silly banners and everybody has to conform to your ideal in order to preserve your (minority opinion) fun-time. We call that being a fun NAHT-ZI (FUCK YOU chadz I HAD TO SPELL IT PHONETICALLY), and it's more selfish than is my own desire to run around with a  dick on my chest.

If the only "fun" part of crpg is your ability to draw a penis and run around with it on your shield/armour then you are probably playing the wrong game ^^.

Im sure there are tons of games out there that allow you to run around with penis/semen/anime/poor quality paint job banners :P play one of those.

As for the money i thought usually they removed your banner but you keep the slot so you can upload something else? Unless ofc it was removed and you ignored the msg and re-uploaded it... if so then tough ^^

yes, you most certainly can. nothing would have been done about the fun, silly banners in an almost dead mod. Everybody would still have their banners, Panos just wants NA to suffer for some reason, maybe because his mother cheated on his father with a NA man. idk, panos has many many deep emotional scars, i can tell.

The silly banners are not the source of fun for the people that have them. They have just had those banners for a long time and assumed that if they had them for months and even up to years that they were deemed okay. The banners became a part of their clan and how they were recognized.

Basically this is just a slap in the face to the people that have had these banners for awhile because the devs are really just saying, "Silly banners are worse for the mod than rule breakers so lets remove those banners of loyal people and keep unbanning and allowing 5+ bans for all the rule breakers"

In most games (such as recent CoD titles), it seems the extent of the rules for custom banners is basically "no naz1 bullshit" which gives you a ban, and vulgar/explicit images like Clever Hidden Penis or goatse get deleted.

I think best moderation is just removing stuff like that, punishing blatant repeat offenders and leaving it at that (except for obnoxious anime shit of course).

You have the freedom to stick to the rules and play the game or you ignore the rules and face the consequences, such as removing the banners.

Not true. There are two sides to this argument and they are mutually exclusive.

I find this stance that many of you put forward here ridiculous:
'If I can't have a pink penis on my heraldic surcoat my fun gets ruined and I don't want to play'

Similarly you probably find this notion ridiculous:
'If I have a guy with a pink penis on his heraldic surcoat next to me my immersion gets ruined and I don't want to play'

Yet both these notions exist, whether you believe it or not. The problem here is that the first notion is represented by many of the NA forum warriors, while the second notion is represented by mostly people with less English proficiency from Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Greece or Turkey for example. The simple fact that you call this stance a minority opinion is ridiculous and that is also why I am here breaking a lance for these people next to Panos. This thread is a complete NA forumwarrior circlejerk where anyone who disagrees is being treated in a very abrasive manner. Hence why my post was similarly provocative and edgy, it does not entirely reflect my thoughts on the subject, or on Europeans and Americans. I have been going against the NA opinion train before and I can completely understand why people with less English skill would be hesistant to do so.

Few of you have even done a slight attempt at understanding the opposite position, but it simply exists. Remember many of the new good looking items we have gotten added to this mod? Many of them were paid for with real money by members of this community. They were all high quality historically authentic items. Players clearly value these things and so do the devs. Yet those items are now wasted next to pink penis warhorses. The developers value these items and have also moved towards a more realistic setting by removing unrealistic weapons and Calradian things.

Your argument that your fun is ruined by not being able to wear a pink penis and that everybody has to conform to your ideal of enjoying pubescent humour over immersion and tastefulness is called being a Nazi as much as my argument is. You may find the immersion not having crazy banners brings overrated, I find the fun that crazy banners bring overrated. Stop thinking your opinion is the only one worth considering.

That's, why were they not enforced until some cunt that doesn't play on our server ever complained? Just odd. I should of expected a jerkoff response from a guy with a jerky avatar. Anyhow I'm done with this thread horse shit. To many twatty euros chiming in about a server they don't play on

You think these rules only effect NA servers? Lol get over yourself. You should put your vagina away and stop acting like a 12 year old, then try writing something constructive to get your point across, maybe the rules can be changed. But the devs arent going to listen if you continue acting like an entitled little cunt.

Also, I couldnt give a fuck what continent someone is from, maybe you guys should remember you're all just twatty europeans living on another continent.

Basically they are saying NA shouldn't have to conform to rules laid down by Yuropeans and should have their own set of rules made my mericans because merica best no one else knows freedom like them, Why does europe get a say about how they play on NA servers.

Did i get the general jist of the thread?

Nah man its just that NA and EU are different cultures and we should all respect that. NA was fine with these silly banners, none of which btw were "huge pink penises", and some EU players dont understand why because they are not a part of our NA crpg culture just like how some NA players dont understand why some EU players want the game to be completely realistic.

A vague rule like the banner rule should be enforced differently in NA than in EU because we are not the same people.

"I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it." - A quote never said or understood by a European citizen ever.
That is literally a quote from from an English woman talking about Voltaire.

Basically your wrong. It has nothing to do with devas or anything. Or rules. The irony is the guy that came on to NA servers just to be an asshole and complain about a banner he didn't like. MB has always had asshoke banners, always. The irony about all this is this dude complaining has been multiple times and perma banned to boot! He doesn't follow rules as well

Just because a server is based in NA or in EU doesn't mean people who don't live in the same continent cannot play on it, thus CRPGs dev written rules should not be based on server locations, plus that only adds to this NA vs EU bullshit. The rules were not made based on culture, they were made by the devs at the time because they didn't want silly banners, that's all there is to it. It's obvious some of the NA guys seem to think it's EU oppressing them and it's EU's fault and so on, when these are just rules for EVERY player, regardless of where on earth you are shitting and sleeping.

Personally I couldn't care less about the banner rules, I prefer the more immersive banners but would not be against silly/joke banners, the thing is no one in here is presenting a proper argument for a rule change, most are just bashing an entire continent because their crappy banner got removed ( when they were lucky to have it for as long as they did in the first place ). Want a rule change? make a poll without the EU vs NA bullshit, people can vote for softened banner rules OR to keep current banner rules ( nudity and gore will obviously always be disallowed. ) If the poll is done properly and voted on by many, then maybe the devs will revise the rules, but not just for your continent, for the entire mod, because that's how rules work.

Thats why I was thinking about NA and EU each having an "Ambassador" of some sorts that could be an admin or a voted in position where the Ambassador reviews the banners for his NA or EU group and decide whether or not the banners are inappropriate or not and then either has the ability to remove the banner himself or just tell the devs which ones he deems inappropriate.

You have the freedom to stick to the rules and play the game or you ignore the rules and face the consequences, such as removing the banners.

And don't tell us that NA has an idea of what Freedom means. It's quite the contrary.

I did natzee that coming anne frankly it's insulting to Americans.

True but their decisions should also be up for debate and criticism so they can improvise and change the game to suit the community, which is part of the reason why we have these forums. Im sure there aren't many people that agree with every decision the devs have made and I would be willing to bet that the devs have changed many things about this mod based on reactions from the community, IE having item balancers and map editors.

I like the historical stuff etc, so I joined a clan that uses "traditional" heraldry.

However, the stupid banners play an important role: they can provide a visible indicator of that player's attitude. And I'm not saying this in a derogatory way at all; sometimes it's nice to know if your ally/enemy might be up for some goofy shenanigans or if they take things more seriously.

Similarly, a juvenile banner can warn you that you may be dealing with a child, so you can communicate with them accordingly (use small words, be more tolerant when they rage at you, etc.).

Its usually better to point out that Greece, during the hundreds of years of Early Modern History that Europe was exploring and dominating the world, as America was born and grew into a superpower, that Greece was hilariously a fucking muslim territory conquered by Turks. The same race that have the Kapikulu clan. Honestly that's fucking pathetic. 300 years bro. How is that even taught in schools in Greece? I'd be less ashamed about being a German.

During the hundreds of years of Early Modern History America was a colony and Europe was exploring and beginning to dominate the world while cowering in fear of the Turks, who were a superpower that managed to reach as far as Vienna. Also way to blatantly discriminate against Turks, real classy.
