    Great, this really has nothing to do with that.

    Of course this will restrict on your "artistic" freedom....

    I want you to have them, but as in reality, and with the rest of the game, things need to have consumables. I think it would be a great opportunity to apply that here. Make it need supplies to keep lit. :)

    ask yourself what powers the lighting? what in the lore can produce that forever without something fueling it.

    really, well good thing it's a game with sandbox elements then....

    I think things should have to fit into the game...or I see this becoming another second life...

    i personally have a strong distaste towards HOAs - but some things should be restricted in this game. like all the crazy building that was done in the past, lets break it now so we can fix it and block it for release.

    i would prefer to not have the fourth wall broken and pushed through it, every time i go into a town. when i play a game i try to 'live in', i want to forget the keyboard and mouse alltogether, and only see the virtual world. can't do that with the things that snap you out of reality - like that neon glow. i LIKE the asset. i WANT it in the game, but not in my pve town, if it keeps that ugly neon. :)

    I do so know that there needs to be balance. I will be a mage archer myself, and I hope that it will be somewhat formatible in the future also!

    You know, I don't currently have any banners, but if I could put them in my basement for some cool lighting effects, wow that would pretty neat :)

    It's beautiful, isn't it? Haha... The thread that @Lord_Darkmoon created appears to be gone now, or I am horrible at searching... For what its worth, in this case I did advocate for physics based stacking rules.

    Honestly taking back items and refunding is a bit of an extreme. Can't imagine that ever happening. :) But, I'd be happy to find out if some variation of @Terminator 's idea was implemented. I hope something is done.

    I understand the many purposes the banners can serve, but...they do clash with the rest of the game. Maybe if the colors of the flag were a little more neutral and un-intrusive and the glow was reduced to a softer shimmer. Also, they don't behave like banners. Are they going to gently move a little in the breeze and have some realistic movement qualities sort of like the lanterns? I can only hope so.

    I was startled when I first saw the neon-ish colors and didn't quite get it. Nevertheless, I bought one for my son, but he refuses to use it because it's garish. IDK. I would like to see the game keep a certain flavor and not turn into the cartoonish game I loved and left behind. (You know which one I mean.) Just my 2p.

    I think the banners are hideous, but I can't advocate any change in them (e.g. need for resources, timer, etc.) after people have already bought them. I only hope that the Devs don't continue to release new add-ons that have the same potential for ruining the landscape and dividing the community. I would hate to see huge zombie statues with glowing, blinking red eyes, neon oracle heads or modern day swimming pools with diving boards on everyone's front lawn.

    Hear! Hear! Kara. I don't need a refund, but will gladly turn the one(s) I bought back in for the good of the game.
