Ok now here goes my second idea, for people to keep interested. Only if Talon approves, i think with how big we are, maybe makeing a shirt that holds vastempire logo, on it with ur rank and awards, it would cost maybe only $15, this could also be hats, and mugs to show off vastempire to people who never thought of being ina pa who are starwars fanatics, everyone can get in on the idea, and send their own sketches and drawings, in and we can vote. Ya get the idea- if u like it or my other idea please post a message for how u feel, and so maybe if alot are posted the idea would be made reality.  -----------------------

Well, the big problems are where would we get the shirts, and paying for shipping. But I think that would be kinda cool... -----------------------

Well, this is where we can end up having to pay per month to belong to the VE. I believe something like this happened with Emperor's Hammer, and they eneded up having to have a membership fee because of having a store and stuff. Now, I think its a great thing, but I am not willing to sacrafice the ability to stay here free, or the fact that we will lose many members if they have to pay. Heh, we're losing members as it is, we don't need to add reason for them to quit. I would have to lead the opposition against this store from being established. Don't get me wrong, I would love to have SW merchandise from the VE but we would be infringing some kind of copyrighted materials to do this. So let's just keep things as is okay? -----------------------

Ahh.. this idea came around a while ago. Basically, not enough people wanted one to warrent the work involved in getting it going. Most of us won't buy anything that isn't very nice quality, and that's hard to find with the shirt/mug/mouse pad companies out there today.
If you all want it, post here saying you do. If we get enough, I'll try to get something with decent quality together without having to charge for membership, just the merch. -----------------------

We'd also have to cook up our own logos so as not to attract the attention of all those LucasFilm attorneys.
As well as the whole, "can any of us actually decide on anything we'd all like" thing. |

Yes, thanks. At the time, I couldn't review my own post because my eyes were too scratched up to keep them open long enough. It's not as bad now and guess what.. I still don't care. -----------------------

Well Im pretty much up for the Idea, don't put in like full on Fanatical stuff tho. Maybe a shirt with like our Squad or something.
Like, in the front, on the right breast it can have like our Call sign, in the back it'll have the writing Vast Empire Army on the top, and then our Squad name, and the list of people in our squad, and if possible, our rank stripe or something on teh side. -----------------------
