After I apologize for leaping off topic, I'll add another $0.02 Canadian (about $0.0001 USD)...
I agree that the Swastika is used without due reverence for the victims of those it who waved it around like madmen. I think that MOHAA is a game where you fight these abominations...it just turns out that people who play the Axis side are playing a necessary part in this GAME...the antagonist.
However, those who start using Terrorists as their model are missing the point of the loose re-enactment that is MOHAA. Just stay in the spirit of WWII, and realize that the Nazis were part of the actual context, and we're not playing the Axis because it's cool to be a Nazi.
I figure some fun should be had once in a while during gameplay...but stay in the spirit of the game.
What's next, The Child Molestors? The Rapists?
This is getting way too heavy.
(go bucks)

Thanks for the feedback. I feel good about my decision.
Now, if someone wanted to make a Porn Star clan, I'd GLADLY make sigs for them! The nudity would be tasteful...heh heh. ed:
By the way, nartriva, that's the KEWLEST sig...haw! Mint.

UH-HYUCK!
What's next you ask? How about something that tops the Miracle on Ice? Does February 24th in Salt Lake City ring a bell?
And now back to the thread topic...I don't like Terrorism.
CANADIAN HOCKEY GOLD, BABY!

ok, you got me.
Don't tell anyone, but when I moved to Columbus 2 years ago, the police stopped me at city limits and handed me a cheesy Buckeyes jacket, a Buckeyes Jeep spare tire cover, and told me to be at the Horseshoe this fall.
cool:

There ya go for most detail on the helmet..Noles almost lost to Iowa State hahaha![/quote:82cfb]
Almost, but we are now 1-0. biggrin: Only 13 more to go.
Seriously, that game will mean nothing by the end of the season, as long as we have the W. We still need to beat Miami, Florida, the ACC and Notre Dame. Those games mean a little more.

If you want to talk about who's overrated, let's talk about Texas. They're always ranked high and every year they end up dropping.

I don't see the problem with making a terrorist sig... but that's just me.
Do it for the art and fuck people that assume you associate with them
simply because you helped make their signature image.
That's all you'll hear from me for now...

I too have been suprised by the number of people that used to put swastikas in their sigs. I knew (or hoped) that those people didn't agree with the Nazis' actions during the war, but the swastika is a symbol of hate and evil. For instance, if I decided to walk up to the board in school and draw a big swastika up there, I would probably be written up and sent to the office. Why? Because the swastika was and still is a message of racism and hate.
