Now that we have flaming katanas and flaming frisians, can we get flaming arrows for night maps?

You don't need to ban or anything just for future reference or something because he's rude to me.

They would be more visible and thus easier to avoid from afar.

They would also kill FPS for the majority of the playerbase. Sometimes, all it takes is a couple flaming ruins to drop peoples' FPS. Imagine 5-10 flaming arrows moving across the map...

irl something shorted on the shuttle and laika overheated and died within a few hours of liftoff and for a brief while one could look up to the stars and see a light shooting across the sky that was actually a warm dog corpse slingshoting about the earth at thousands of miles per hour which was arguably humanity's greatest achievement so far

And the fire animation doesn't work too well on warband. Arrows fly so fast that they would just leave a trail of fire on their flight path. So the arrow itself wouldn't even look like it's on fire.
+ like Elf_princess said, it would cause some serious fps problems.
