They will be selectable in a drop-down box from your profile.

I need one government member from each sanctioned alliance to PM me with the image that their alliance wants to use. These images may be a maximum size of 150x48.

Any new Sanctioned Alliance must wait 10 days to get their image added here (the same amount of time required to get your flag added in-game). Whenever an alliance replaces another as sanctioned, the old alliance's image will be removed when the new one's is added.



Edit: Don't forget that the background here isn't white, so it would be a good idea to make sure that any images submitted have transparent backgrounds.

I've opened this up so anyone with question can post them here.

It appears that anyone can select any one of the twelve tags from the dropdown menu, Is that correct?

Yes, that will be how it is setup.

Will I get my red title back?

*hopes*

Their is 12 sanctioned alliances, i thought their was 14.

There are 12 sanctioned alliances...

Check out the Amazing Sanction Race

No but the stats screen shows the 2 closest to being sanstioned

No, we need the colors to stay the same so that it is easy to see when a moderator is online.

Can you make the moderation names bolded, underlined, and an in a bright other color?

No, we're not neon signs .

Ooooh, but I wouldn't mind a bright pink color for the seniors

I'll be sure to remember that at our upcoming christmas party.

Cool stuff. It will be nice to see these returning. I'm glad I made my topic since it seems to have reminded people of them.

Wow, this will be really cool, except for the slight problem of people ghosting the forum masks, but I guess alliances could take the same policy as they take in game.

Alright, now I'm worried

*Van Hoo III alerts the RoK Art Department.

i expect great thing from Van Ho's Art Whores!

If an alliance looses their sanction, do they lose the mask?

Edit: Also, when will the feature become available?

EPIC. bustin' out the old school. LOOOVVVEEEE EEET.

Awesome. Thanks for doing this guys.

This adds an old element back into the game.

Question: Are the mods going to take care of the mischievous members who wear an alliance tag that isn't theirs? (If it is reported)

Yes, they will lose their mask.

The feature should be available within the next 10 or 15 days.


Nope, it's up to alliances to deal with ghosters.

How come I have a feeling Vox is going to confuse everyone and adopt a ton of different masks.

Vivi, your awesome!

Because it's going to happen probably

Very cool, some more incentive to be sanctioned.

I'm glad the Moderation Staff is improving these forums in leaps and bounds. o/

Although I am glad that this has been brought back, can I ask why? As I suggested this months ago yet was told that It would not happen.

I'm glad this is back. I've was hoping this could be brought back. It gives the forum more flava.

Awesome! It will be cool to see these back.

Hmm, which alliance should I ghost?

The moderation staff has RL to deal with, we don't exactly have time to do ALL the suggestions which sound good. We finally had some free time to do some changes around here and we decided this was a good idea to go forward with. Thank Vivi for bringing it up again for us so we could complete it.

*George the Great alerts himself.

This is .

Thanks mods.

To add a bit more to this, whenever I get them all they'll be up. Yes, that does mean that they'll all be added at one time.

10-15 days sounds about right as a good chunk of the Sanctioned Alliances probably don't have images now and the ones who had them from before will likely want new ones.

I'm guessing you mean 150x48, right?

Also to others, theses are are not for forum masks, you misunderstood the technical parts behind this.

Correct, 150 wide, 48 high.

*facepalms*

Yeah, that.

Hopefully this actually gets implemented... unlike last time this was tried.

Great work Admin team! I'm glad to see these back, it's just like the olde days.

Will these images be permanent or removed from the corresponding alliance if it falls from the sanctioned list?

Drop-down tag =/= mask

/me prepares to get warned.

I would like to thank the Admin's and the Mod Squad for a wonderful Holiday gift to all of us.

Also, in the case of an alliance who loses their sanction but regains it...will they have to wait 10 days before they can have it back again?

This will follow the same rules as the flags in-game. If an alliance loses it's sanction but gets it back within 10 days, nothing changes. After that it takes them a full 10 days to regain the flag/image.

Don't flags stay?

No. Some flags have been kept in for historical reasons, and reasons of achievement, but they don't normally stay once they have been unsanctioned.

I thought admin left flags up on request.

He does, but by default they don't stay up.

I'd also like to point out that unlike the old forum, the background that the images will be shown up on isn't white, so you may want to make sure that your images have transparent backgrounds.

Which format(s) would you like them in then?
