Topic: Can we get ALL the flags? Posted: 10-Jun-2005 at 01:09 |
If you guys are adding flags for unrecognized nations, then you have to
add the flag for the Independent Republic of Mountainous Karabagh. Just
a suggestion.

Listen, to cut a long story short: everyone recognizes that there's a northern part of Cyprus occupied by Turkish troops. Everyone recognizes that this part is inhabited by Turkish-Cypriots and (illegally imported to alter the population distribution) Turkish colonists. So we also recognize (same as the rest of the world) that you're a Turkish Cypriot residing in the occupied part of the island.
Just because some land their planes there or talk to your community leaders does not means that they recognize the occupied zone as a sovereign country.

Yes, thus i am citizen of the TRNC.
All your views are to be respected but the fact of the matter is that no matter what the world officialy says they really do recognise the TRNC.
If not then why would the US land at Ercan airport in the TRNC.
Flights from london to TRNC are being conducted.
Why would talks be often be made to Denktas and now to president Talat
If Greece and the south side did not really think that the TRNC exists then let me see you try to come and govern TRNC teritory, you wouldnt get very far.
AE should recognise that they have a member from the TRNC, that the TRNC whether you like it or not does exist and that the TRNC flag DOES exist.

I think we should have the flags of Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan in AE. We have a couple of members from those countries.
I hope our administrators add those flags for us. Thanks...

Weeeell, the old Cyprus conflict revived!
Hahahahaha!!!
Usually, I prefer to be mild and moderate on most subjects, and I will attempt to do so here too; I hope I am successful:
When and if the now illegally occupied northern part of Cyprus is
recognised by a majority of an international organisation such as the
UN or the EU or the United Federation of Planets, then all opposing
voices will be silent.
Until then, however, there is no lawful right to refer to such a
nationality or country as if it really does exist. Implications of
existence are allowed, but no official declarations whatsoever.
I hope I was mild enough.

Well perhaps is the south side stopped interfering with the affairs of the TRNC then we would have been recognised after the referendom, of which we agreed and the greeks did not. Just recently you did not let the US senator to enter the south side just because he landed in Ercan airport in the TRNC. Such prejedice by a state or infact by AE and its members is not needed.
I am from the TRNC, does that meen that AE does not recognise me?

Thr Republic of Cyprus is recognized by the whole world. If you refer to the fake "state" which is infact the occupied northern part of the Cypriot Republic, then no, it's not recognized by anyone.

Whether or not Cyprus is recognised or not, the fact of the matter is that it is a real nation. It has its own border and culture which is unique. TRNC has existed since 1974, thus it is a real nation.

Iskender Bey ALBO
It's simple actually, the @#$% was banned for being provocative,
exactly what he is doing now. It's like me using a map that depicts
parts of Albania annexed to Serbia or Italy or half of N.Epirus
belonging to Hellas.
That is provocative, say, swear, demand whatever you like in a discussion, but this only provokes an argument.
Simple really.

I don't believe there are any real rules on what the avatar can or cannot involve. While I can't say that Alex doesnt put that avatar to instigate or anger, there is no real reason to remove it. If it does anger someone, well that person should try and be above that and not be bothered by a colorful blot. A person has the right to express himself.
Just my view ofcourse.
As for the Cyprus one, I agree with Strategos. Cyprus is recognized as a real nation. Northern Cyprus hasn't. Showing a map of a recognized split cyprus doesnt say much.

One major difference, one is a fully recognized country/state while the other is nothing more than an ILLEGAL creation based on force.
I would like to know why whenever I want to 'file' a complaint this comes up: Sorry, only members with sufficient permission can access this page.
Since when am I not a member with sufficient permission and why???
Anyway, since I have no way of 'filling it in' the correct topic, I'll state it here and hope it will be heard.
WHY, do you allow provocative flags like the one the provocateur Alexander of Macedon uses??? I consider the mods intelligent enough to recognise a totally ILLEGAL flag, a symbol that has been disallowed by all intenational organizations. Why do you allow this @#$% to use it??????
|
Exactly, my icon of was also removed, because iwas told it was provocative, and I think alexander of macedons should be removed as well. Wasn't he banned by yiannis anyways, some time ago? Cyrus, if you are going to take mine off, u must at least consider taking his off as well.

Can you add a Scottish flag? Scotland is a country, however its also part of a political union called the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. There is a flag for the political union but but not the states that make up that union i.e Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and England. Scotland has its own parlaiment, flag, president, it is also historically an independant nation, joining the union did not end it being a country, it just became part of a union of Nations, it also has its own football team |
I agree with you. Scotland should have its own animated flag in the forums.
