    Gilnean flag, something doesnt look right.

    not a gamebreaking issue, or anything major. Gilnean fans already know what Gilneas flag looks like



    but the flag that we see in Gilneas City does not in anyway look like the Gilnean flag,it shows a triple-scar (probably a symbol of wolf.) and a circle.



    it is explained that this is the Gilneas flag after the second war. putting that aside, if anyone is familiar with photoshop or image editing they'll likely notice that the symbol has a "blending" effect. (to put it simple : it has a glow) and a glow is not something I've seen on old flags (at least not the way they're shown on the Gilnean flag) this might look like a nit pick but it appears that this flag was supposed to be featured for the "battle of Gilneas City" but when the purpose of the city changed they didn't bother to create a new flag. and decided to use it for the current game.

    This only proves the inefficiency, stupidity and carelessness of Blizzard, since they not even know the lore of their franchises.

    It's outrageous the contempt with which Blizzard treats the Alliance ...

    A picture is worth a thousand words:

    It reminds me of Global Liberation Army from Command and Conquer.

    The Gilnean flag should be a mailbox with a cross over it.

    I would've guessed it's one of these from a horizontal angle.

    The Gilnean flag introduced in Cata looks like a cheapo decal you'd see sprayed on a wall in Counter-Strike.

    On the flipside, the Icon of Gilneas, which was also created for Cataclysm, has the old Gilneas icon.

    Perhaps the two symbols have distinct meanings.
