Previous thread continuation, pickle will not rest.
First of all the bear is my forum avatar, not my in game banner
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.)
