Wow way to be a bunch of killjoys. It is just a joke.

Do you want me to take it down? I will if it is offensive.

Some jokes aren't funny.
I don't care much for the poster as a whole but its the glorified association of drugs to the game that I find offensive.


Do you have children or young siblings? would you be happy if I promoted drugs as cool to them through their cartoons or games they played?

I took the poster down.

I don't have any children or siblings. I think you are taking this way out of context - nothing obviously illegal was being promoted in the poster. The scorpion had alcohol - legal in most countries at an appropriate age and the forest spirit was smoking an unidentified item. Smoking tobacco is legal in most countries and practiced by many.

I rarely drink and do not smoke tobacco or other substances. If you think a 14 year old is gonna see my poster and immediately go out and get something illegal that is bad for your health I think you are mistaken. It was clearly a joke and was meant to fit in to the theme of thug life. Speaking of thug life, any 14 year old with access to a TV can see music videos that glorify sex, smoking, marijuana, objectification of women and more.

I don't even want to fight about this which is why I took the poster down.

Good bye sweet poster - I thought you weren't inappropriate.

SO  that's where the poster went.... I was wondering.

I would have been happy if you just removed the Joint from the forest spirit.

The poster was pretty cool, you can put it back up grass-less. Or with a warning sign that smoking kills or something.

... when I get a chance I will remake it I guess.

Before I waste my time, is the only thing that offended Kael Hate and GirlsGeneration the smoking part? Is the beer in the scorpions claws offensive?

I will link to the original off the board with a disclaimer eventually if that is okay Kael Hate?

If nothing else, you should keep the "custom av for team members" idea -- that was awesome.

The avatar was definitely my major reason for being so happy to get on Life

Alright everyone. The banner is back up and I hope it is not offensive this time. I am not promoting any illegal activities. I am just making a play on the word thug life and the life creatures are acting like thugs.

If you have a complaint just PM me and I will see what I can do.

You gotta get to 200 posts before that becomes relevant.

Personally I think the bottles on the scorpion can be interpreted as (and looks more like) soda than alcohol, so I have no problems there.

Yeah, I know.  Not too worried about it, it'll be a great memory 6 months from now, too.

1. War Banner/Flag - PASS

2. War Song - FAIL
1. Go to http://listen.grooveshark.com/
2. Find a good song that fits your element
3. Use the "EXPORT" function to make your own widget (single song, 150px)
4. Post the embed code on your Propaganda Topic.

In order to get the code working properly, you need to ask Scaredgirl to make an edit to your topic. you cannot do this yourself as it requires html coding permissions. Worst part is that every time you make some edits to your post, you break the code thing again. This is why it's probably best to do this War Song thing last.

War Songs used during last War event: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,7329.0.html (no, you cannot use any of these)

3. War Speech - PASS
