If you turn it around it's a Budhist symbol for peace.
So my pic just meant the rising sun, what it has to do with Samurai. Samurai -> Japan -> Amaterasu -> Sun Goddess
Honestly if it hadn't been used by Nazis, you wouldn't know what a swastika was or its meaning.

I think you missed the point. They were randomly killing people without questioning why - and when they did, the answer was "Well, we've been doing it so long. Why should we stop now?"

It's been blue for so long, yes - but why can't it change?

It can change, but blue is the obvious logical colour for Zormite.

Because two other kingdoms are red, and how cool would you be to follow the crowd?

If you wish it not to be misunderstood, you shouldn't give them a flag that will directly be linked to its bad reputation. Would you think it's a smart idea to start a kingdom with a swastika flag?

So you're essentially saying that when someone reasonable gets in charge and changes it to a monarchy/democracy/anarchy you'd kill yourself?

Matthew, the only reason you're in charge is because some idiot took over and started changing things. Now you're gonna do the same. History repeats itself.

Hey, this could turn out well. Don't count your eggs before they hatch.

Yeah, but it doesn't really look like it's gonna turn out well.

But Matthew is clearly making large efforts to do his best with the idea. So instead of shouting prophecies of doom, etc... why not just watch and see how it turns out?

Waltz5 is an unknown quantity at this point
I understand that people have problems with history and such, and I'm not saying I disagree.

However, the biggest thing I see is this is a step in the right direction. Matt is trying something and getting the ball rolling.

I've tried to start something new for Samurai, to increase some RPing... but now it's going on 3 weeks I think on waiting for it to be uploaded. Hopefully you'll see it soon.

Besides, as far as I see it, the people who dissent the most, I never see online anyway.
