I recently met a player whose clan uses the Francoist Spanish flag, and, when I told him to remove it, he called me names (the three times I spoke to him about it).
chocolate chip cookie banners are forbidden here, because neither Germans or anyone else wants to see such things, and Italians probably don't appreciate Moussolini souvenirs either. Well, for us Spanish, it's the same with this flag. It's the flag of Franco's dictatorship, and, even if he didn't use the brutal killing methods einstein did, he killed a lot of people too, and this flag is offensive to civilised and intelligent Spaniards. This kind of stuff is what prevents my country from progressing. Nowadays we are in the direction of another dictatorship, and this "thing" gets on my nerves.
If I happened to use a chocolate chip cookie banner and someone told me about it and to remove it, the first thing I would say is "sorry", and then I would at least consider doing something about it (depending on what kind of a person I were). Do you know what this person said to me when I told him about his banner? "You're a tard". Three times in three different days I argued with him and each and every time he didn't care. He even said his banner was not what I said. Alright, let's think for a moment: it's not exactly the flag I am talking about - the eagle is a little different. But, please, it's the Spanish flag (red-yellow-red) with a black eagle...
