We have been down this road before.

No more if you'd be so kind.

I've reopened the thread at the request of the thread creator after having made the necessary alterations but unfortunately an unavoidable consequence is the fact some of the edited posts no longer make much sense.

Should any of the post originators feel the need they can delete their posts or alternatively they can PM me a link to said post and I will erase them permanently.

Allow me to apologise publicly for any inconvenience this may cause individuals but there was little choice because of some of the post content.

Finally....can we stay on topic and not stray beyond the boundaries of the forum rules.

TIA

Truth be told Jim, they didn't make much sense to begin with.

Anyway, back to the subject at hand. I must admit, I've always liked the war ensign of the Kaiserliche Marine, the whole eagle and black cross on white, really rather stylish.
Lower Saxony has a nice flag too, reminds me a lot of the emblem of the county of Kent in the UK, 'Invicta' it's called (which is quite ironic considering whenever England has been invaded in the past, it's nearly always Kent which cops it first...so I'm not so sure when 'unconquered' comes from because it sure isn't history...).

Out of the original German states though...it's got to be Prussia every time.


EDIT: Also you missed post #73.

#73 was left to explain the justification for the remedial action taken.

There are two of his and one of mine on the funny picture thread that could be deleted. You'll see them.

I'm not overly concerned there Anze, they're more or less what I would expect from him and besides, he won't be around anymore.

We all move on now.

Can we keep this topic from being closed again? I would appreciate that. The topic does raise some important questions and gettting it closed is not going to move the questions towards any answers, if there are any.

EDIT: This was to the posts above Nippelspanner's.

I agree and asked Jimbuna to re-open it after it got closed due to our ex-resident Nazi's actions.

A thread should not be punished because of some... lost person.

Zero tolerance for Nazis. Don't brig them - nuke them on first sight.

Its not a compliment for a forum if administration tolerates them to be around, once identified. Just saying.

While I agree, I also see that it's that thought that, when taken to the extremely silly and mindless, will lead to people thinking a flag can only be a symbol of all things nasty.

Personally, I don't care for flags. I don't have any and I don't plan on getting one. I do however appreciate the happy faces on people when they wave their flags when their teams play the tournies, or they go on holidays with a flag on their tshirt or hat or whatever.

Years ago I talked with this Swedish girl. She said she was ashamed of waving her flag because of the way the Swedish far right extremists/nazis had claimed it as their own, leading to good people suspecting everyone showing off the blue and yellow colours. It pissed me off to no end to hear that. No, I don't need a flag but damn if you want to have a flag on your constitution day, or when your team is playing or whatever, if you want a flag on your car, then you should have all the rights to do it.

This topic reminds me of that.

I best end here or else I speak my mind about what I think of extremists and that is not going to end well.
