Unfortunately that's what you're gonna get with F7. I think Gandoor understands all too well, with the "omg ur nashion is le power rangers" when that was the flag.

The main reason why my previous flag was specifically a GIF from Power Rangers is because people are already going to say 'Power Rangers' even when my flag pic is from a Super Sentai season that either pre-dates PR or hasn't been adapted, so I might as well go all the way with it.

I mean obviously I know casuals will just look at any of that and think Power Rangers, of course

The Germanian Empire | "Unser Vaterland, Herrscher der Asche..."
Factbooks | Music | Tech Level: PT/FanT | Current Year: 1943 UE (1958 AD)

In a strange world not so different from ours, a young empire stands in the heart of Europa. Born and forged in the fires of war, it is headed by an embittered Kaiserin and a camarilla of aging, scheming generals. Stretched to a breaking point and groaning under the stress and hubris of its past victories, the Fatherland stands on guard. But on the forefront of a new world, fighting a new war from without and within, will it survive?

I'm still trying to figure why TCV gets so much hate for their flag. Yes, it has bright colors and an uncommon palette. It has meaning to the Caleshan and they care little what outsiders think of their iconography... but the snide asshat comments get really freaking old.

I don't get that much flak for Godular's flag, and I would have thought it was the worse of the two.

I mean all I'm saying is I remember a mod saying that you can't flame DOS users (as in 'you can't be warned for flaming them', not that you'll get in trouble for flaming them) because they're permabanned, they ain't allowed to be using this site anymore anyways.

What do you mean? Everyone knows you can't put something into a name if its a lie. Just ask any North Korean many free and very democratic elections the Democratic People's Republic of Korea had, no lies there.

Yes, the kind of person to get his talking points on the Nazis from Conservapedia and to respond to any criticism of capitalism with 'BUT VENEZUELA DUDE, REMEMBER THAT ONE'S IMPLODING IN ON ITSELF', as if bringing up a dictatorship with a catastrophically mismanaged command economy was some ironclad defense against anyone not sufficiently hypercapitalist.

People in forum7 associating your flag with a random franchise. I hed people associate my flag with Legend of Zelda at least two times in F7 threads. My flag is a cropped album cover with pixel art to the side, i don't get the Legend of Zelda association. I imagine this also this happens to other people who use emblems on their flags, that they have it associated with random things in specific forum7 threads.

Flag-related cliche: When you spend too much time on the forums, getting really confused when someone changes their flag.

Maybe it's just me but I associate a poster's particular flag to their posts just as much as their name - so whenever someone changes theirs it makes me do a double take.

I was gonna say 'Looks like we have another F7 trend here' with those choir threads, then I noticed all three threads are made by the same person, so it's not even a trend.

Honestly that's kind of sad in a way.

Cliche: gremlins who simply exist to spout genocidal nonsense on the agree or disagree thread.

They want a nation to not exist so badly that they repeat their statements like a goddamn ritual as if they are trying to convince themselves.
