"Non Plus Ultra"
Perhaps a warning that isn't Latin; some signs such as those around stations warning against entering grey unprepared. Preferably not in GTS.
How about brain dead fools pay attention to the damned tutorials which state that Gray is dangerous?

The first time going to grey space should give the warning in a popup window ... Doesn't that already happen ?
O come on people.... if you pay minimal attention to either the back story, the tutorials, the system descriptions in the navigation window, or the chatter on 100, you know that grey's not (and is not supposed to be) a safe place. If you miss or ignore that you deserve to get a lesson in target practice (from the wrong end of the range). It's not as if dying hurts in this game...
What I could vote for is a pop-up after being killed in grey the first time, explaining how what they did was an important part of the game that they can experience at a later time, and that the should practice: get good, and get even. The popup can be titled: "Welcome to Vendetta Online"
[Edit: okay, I couldn't resist.
Kind regards from Jerusalem! :-) ]

Did you really have to bring such a sensitive subject up like that?
Yes!
I am confronted with this stuff on a daily basis and think that people should realize what is going on. "Don't talk about politics or religion" is for polite conversation, and I've never been good at that. Moreover, I've been careful to select a picture that doesn't work as propaganda for either side. And it was on topic, too :-)

Okay, first off, this is a GAME FORUM, for god's sake. Politics have no place here - try CNN.
And no matter how neutral you think it was, it could offend someone. For example, at first I thought it was Pro-Israeli, because the sign implies Palestinians are terrorists.
"Kind regards from Jerusalem" that didn't help matters ether.
You've never been good at it? So try to bloody stay away from it.
What right do you have to decide how much knowledge about current affairs do you have?

Oh, FFS!
Its a bloody SIGN! If you were offended by it, thats your damn problem! The post was on topic, and the pic appropriate. This stuff exists in the real world. If you get offended by it,
a) go live in a cave somewhere, and
b) DO NOT CONNECT TO THE INTERNET!!!
also, please, nobody "think of the children"...
[/rant about overwhelmingly stupid "political correctness"]

Surprisingly... I'm with Snake on this. Also the sign spelled "Future illegal settlement on occupied land" wrong ...POLITIC'D!
Also, the OP completely stupid. The Tutorials say don't go there, 100 is full of pirates and people whining about being killed there, so... no. Besides... it would make no logical sense that the signs would not be destroyed by some Gray faction.

I am in complete support of the ability to destroy signs.
Also: relevant image is relevant. Get over it. There was nothing political involved until Snake started complaining, prompting the other guy to elaborate. Prior to that, it was just a real-world example. There's probably some story behind my image as well that probably offends somebody. I give zero flips. They're examples.

Back on topic please.
I support the OP under the condition that the signs are in GTS. It is my strong opinion that all game text that is a part of the 3d environment (not HUD, chat, etc.) should be GTS.
No, I don't expect newbies to understand the glyphs. I haven't even gotten around to memorizing more than a couple yet myself. Just make it red and scary looking. Throw in a skull and crossbones image as well. That way it should get the message across to even the typical illiterate newbie.

No, no, NO
I have enough of Spanish and Latin to memorize, I don't want to memorize GTS just to do missions.

Did you read his post at all?
Oh no Im just opposing the GTS thing. The skullbones and stuff Im fine with.
Whistler, saying "Back on topic please." is off topic... LEAD BY EXAMPLE!
If there were some type of destroyable sign projection system... fine, of course it would be destroyed at once and stay destroyed, so really its pointless.

Sorry I was unclear idd. I mentally lumped in the PDA with the HUD, not realizing I might need to be explicit about that. The PDA, including missions, should still be in English.
