Idea/Suggestion

Postby Santa-Barbara » Mon Feb 01, 2021 8:55 pm

Seeing how long this community and site has existed for, this is most likely not the first time someone has suggested national anthems for user's nationstates. I think it would be a great idea as it will contribute to each nation's identity and give more insight to others what the nation is all about, because a lot of information and emotions can be found and interpreted through music. Nations could unlock this feature by exceeding a certain population number (just like capital city, national religion etc.). Perhaps, the user could enter a YouTube link or upload a music file for their selected anthem, and it can await approval or be ready for moderation. Once approved, their song can be displayed on the side of their nation's page under the box with their population, capital city etc.

Thank you.

Some people already do this by putting the anthem in their signature.

Didn't know this. I guess that is a good way to display a national anthem. Perhaps this could be made official and be apart of their actual nation's page, but if not, that's certainly an alternative.

Obligatory not an admin/mod, but someone actually suggested the idea of audio tracks in forum signatures before, and I am guessing that this would unfortunately be the same with a music track as a custom field.

Copyright issues. A boatload of copyright issues. So.. yeah, best bet is to have a factbook and add your anthem in there.

Yeah you're definitely right about that. I did think about copyright but wasn't too aware of the situation and its threats to this website.
