Sidenote: their banners are so shit nowadays. The Hansa one was at least pretty cool. Now its just a retarded copy paste of their shitty badges. Any fed listening to this, please rehire that UI guy who did the Hansa one he was pretty good for a fucking rat.
an interesting thought, maybe they forced ASNT to write the message and he intentionally used those different characters as a canary of sorts to leave a sign that LE is now in control of the market without outright saying it.
