I'm guessing that my negativity is a bit annoying?

I'm trying to do it less. Honest.

Flags? What flags? I see no flags.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Most people don't have big and large banner sigs unlike in many other forums :P (whether utility, practicality or not knowing those settings existed)
And for those that use images in their sigs: most people just have flags.

Every now and then, I trim mine down by a point or two.

Too many people have generic anime avatars :x

I like to think mine is neither generic nor excessively anime, but I honestly have no idea.

Cmega has a pink and blue flag, Objective has a rainbow flag.

How do you mix that up :P
I have sigs turned off.

Also what's with the sexuality flags that aren't a rainbow? Isn't the entire point of the rainbow flag that it includes all colours, and thus metaphorically or whatever all sexualities?

1) The mainstream gay pride rainbow is often seen as 'owned' by mainstream gay/lesbian culture, to the exclusion of other groups who haven't always been accepted by that movement. Bisexuals, asexuals, transgender/sexual, etc. They don't feel included. (Also that's not what the colours symbolised, but intent of the symbol is less important than it's actual use.)

2) Sometimes individual subgroups have their own interests they want to promote separately, or an identity that is more important to them than fitting under a broad rainbow. Having individual symbols is a part of that.

The flag thing basically turned into TvTropes. It started with countries, to keep everyone from asking where everyone was from. Then states got added. Then a few cities got added. Then the rainbow flag got added, and that wasn't right for some folks. Don't want to cause more questions, so people went specific. Then all kinds of other stuff (religious flags, etc.) got added because making tiny flags is fun, as is wearing badges. No different than wearing a snarky t-shirt or religious necklace. You can note that I made one for my black belt status, and one of wedding rings since.

He said you can note, not notice. I didn't see it either, but I apparently have a lot of trouble noticing wedding rings.
