Somalia on the banner again

Janub · July 2nd, 2011, 07:46 AM

God damn, who is this moron who makes these awful banners and finds a way to get the admin to accept it? There are plenty of good scenic pictures of coastal Somali towns and you always find a low quality pic. I fill find you Somali spammer!

I guess its good that Somalis have good mobilizing power to get more banners than any other Oasis community but the comments are horrific, and rightly so.

At this rate we'll have 10 Somali banners before we see 1 from a deserving city like Addis Ababa or Abuja.

Next time this empty headed moron wants to put up a banner, consult with me and I'll make a fine one, I've made quality banners for my company's ads in the past.

***Xusein*** · July 2nd, 2011, 07:50 AM

You are welcome to help us find nice banners.

As for the comments on the rate our banners thread.

HATERS WILL ALWAYS HATE.

Let's shoot for another one before 2011 ends. Preferably Hargeisa or Bosaso.

I believe it's MMX who made the banner (no offense). Just like the last time I gave a 5 nonetheless.

Janub · July 2nd, 2011, 07:54 AM

MMX is a smart guy but why is he being silly and putting these ugly banners up? It reflects poorly on the entire nation, as if things weren't bad enough.

I'm almost 40 years old and I'm functional enough to make something as decent as the one below. It took me 5 seconds to crop this image of nearby Merca!

I'm not happy that MMX has found a way to make one of Somalia's most beautiful areas look so ugly.

***Xusein*** · July 2nd, 2011, 07:55 AM

Many of the comments aren't even about the banner, they are about the usual retarded pirate comments.

No, you didn't. You had this ugly piece of shit banner.

^ Don't compare that ugly work to my beautiful banner.

Again, the person submitting these banners has to be blind to think it looks acceptable. I'd be embarrassed to present that as Somalia.

G.O.E.T.I.A · July 2nd, 2011, 08:00 AM

okay, i didn't remember it quite right, but i thought they looked the same. My bad

Ras Siyan · July 2nd, 2011, 08:02 AM

I voted! Beautiful banner of a beautiful medieval coastal city located in a beautiful country.

Ha nolato Somalia!!!

I noticed, and as u said, haters gonna hate! We're gonna let them do their job Xusein.

I guess some people prefer quantity over quality. I can't expect much from the youth these days. I spent 20 years in business, I guess its been drilled into my head to perform like a dog, perhaps I should take it easy on the banner.

We already had that pic as a banner, he meant.

Like I said, next time be proactive in the banner making process with us and we'll have a much much better banner next time. I'm glad to see it again regardless, I can care less about the comments. Up until last time, Somalia never had a banner ever in SSC and now this is the second time in seven months.

Janub · July 2nd, 2011, 08:09 AM

Banners are the last thing Somalia needs to compete for. When I had nothing to my name I didn't flash bling for a reason. But, I'm only saying if a banner is going to be done it should be done. I'm still trying to reason with the mind who would take time to make something so awful and pass it off. I'm done for the night, I'll keep my ear open to the next request, I've got great candidates in the Bari coastal region.

What do you guys think of this one?

Now I need to know who made this...

ExcellentALWAYS · July 2nd, 2011, 08:19 AM

I voted 5 for it because its from Afrika.

èđđeůx · July 2nd, 2011, 08:23 AM

No offense but it's ugly, and yeah Somalia is up again for what the 3rd time?

***Xusein*** · July 2nd, 2011, 08:26 AM

Second time.

The problem isn't Somalia being on the banner more than it should. It's moreso the fact that the African forumers don't make banners in large numbers. Other than Somalia, the only African countries I've seen on the banner in the 2011 are: Algeria, Morocco, Egypt, and DR Congo. Maybe South Africa too, I don't remember.

Step your game up people! Let your country grace the banner for a day. I can even forward a banner to the admins for you guys.

èđđeůx · July 2nd, 2011, 08:31 AM

Yeah SA was on once this year...

***Xusein*** · July 2nd, 2011, 08:38 AM

Bosaso.

Somali forumers: We should cooperate and then agree to see what kind of banner we should put next--in late 2011, isA.

alama · July 2nd, 2011, 08:51 AM

What are the requirements to be on 'today's banner'? We need more african cities... Luanda, Nairobi, Maputo, Dakar, Brazzaville, Kampala, Durban, Gabz...
