i did not mean it in that sense, i mean the tc flag represents that the trnc is a seperate state that the cypriots do not live together.. the eoka one supports the same thing hatred towards tcs and that cyprus is greek.. so one says cyprus is turkish and the other cy is greek so in that sense its the same thing and i am against both being used..

sorry if i offended anyone posting it but i was trying to make a point :)

So, do we see the pretty flags? and do we understand what this thread is supposed to be about?!!


The vote is real close sure admin should take note than so mant people thing the TRNC flag should be allowed.


Not so fast, VP.

There are 43,668 members registered on the Cyprus Forum, and unless you get at least 50+% to vote on the initiative, it is a illegitimate vote. So, as soon as you get 21,834 votes counted, this vote will be declared non & void.! If we are going to have a democratic voting system on the forum, then we should do it properly.! :idea:

If you dont use your vote tough luck, its the ones that have been cast that will reflect how people feel and 36 votes is a great result.

There is a Greek Cypriot community flag, if the flag resources I have access to are correct. A blue flag with a large white Greek Cross. In the center of the cross is the letter "Kappa". It's a good representative flag, IMHO...
