at first the flag represented the country where you were when you log in.. now you can choose whatever the heck you want and it appears in the chat list.. and I see most of you have chosen some crazy flags, from countries where there is not even a single person who listens to metal  .. sure it's funny, but what's the point of the flags then.. I've chosen the Romanian one 'cause that's my country of origin.. also, the top countries by visitors, how is it done now?.. we should go back to how it was.. although it's just an idea, no big deal.. I guess I woke up too early and I'm bored as well..

Do you have a problem that I moved from St. Kitts to Zimbabwe. Well hell, I like it here in Zimbabwe, its such a friendly place, and I have metal all to myself in this country. 
But I have to tell you, it was a bitch moving a whole mountain, kind of felt a bit like Mohammed.

erhmm lol both funny statements here. I think choice is free as personality shall be protected in the internet. Faked personalities sooner or later do not withstand in our community. If you honestly seek truth in the informations you get from a person the first circle to break is 'trust'. Seconds step would be private messaging and then maybe even personal contact.
What got that to do with flags? A lot. Cause if im not interested in seeing any person in time soon he can tell me the fuck where he´s from and what he is doing with life... so much to that.
I think Cj really lives behind the mountains

Just to get back on topic on this one, the purpose of the country flags is pretty obvious: "no flag no country". And a white flag means that you're the chicken who crossed the road and now he has no idea where he is, because he lost his GPS somewhere.

I really have no idea. Maybe Pesa will be so kind and explain it to us.

Zimbabwe is fucked up cj. It used to be nice - I know, I've been on holiday there twice. Hot as fuck, nice cold beers, Crocodile farms and White Water Rafting. All gone to shit now because Robert Mugabe is almost the Afican version of Hitler...well he's got the mustache! Half the population are emaciated and dying from malnutrition while Mr. Mugabe has BBQ's and cake for dinner, such is the life of a dictator eh!
Why would a redneck like you want to live in Africa anyway? 
Anyway I agree with Misan about this flag thingy.

Here is my typical american opinion. If its not me and in another part of the world, who gives a fuck? In the words of the great George Carlin: Fuck the fucking fuckers. |

It is a mix of member's participation in the site.
On flags thing:
#1. Have you moved back to Romania already, misan?
#2. Would be that paranoia of yours? I think that digi (level 9) and pesa (level 7) are enough, although we had never reached so far about this subject.
#3. Seclu has a point: Since he became an IT Salesman, that is selling microcomputers, he moved to Micronesia. Makes sense, isn't it?
#4. Brad uses that flag (i'm almost sure) because that it looks like Confederate flag (Dixie flag).
#5. Flag chosen by a member does not impacts on Top Visiting Countries.
#6. Accordingly to the voice of wisdom above: Who gives a fuck?
#7. Get a life.
