What if they change the logo of Protoss in Legacy of the Void? =P
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

My point is, its nobody else's business. Would it not be better for you to reveal what it is in your own time rather than a big Luigi there for the world to judge? A little vagueness is great from an artistic stand point and in all honesty would protect you from alot of hateful, ignorant scorn.


If it's nobody's business, why are you putting an image on the most apparent part for people to notice?

In addition, do you want people to be intrigued or everyone to fuck off and mind their own business?

Can't have it both ways...

It's not vague at all, it's obvious what it is, you're the one being personally vague, not the image. You're giving the image more than it is/intended to be.

Getting a tattoo for all the wrong reasons champ :x I associate a tattoo with: "I don't give a shit what people think, this shit on me is cool/means something to me".

If you're worried about people's comments, knowing they're ignorant. Stick to writing songs, same effect, easier to remove from your repertoire of artistic talents or projections :B


haha, I really doubt people would recognise what either symbol is, straight up. The hateful scorn part was probably a bit extreme I think most people would think it was pretty funny or cool in a good way.

Really we're talking about if im at the beach or something here, taking into account a whole holiday I dobt more than 1-2 people would notice and that would just be a a fun conversation starter with some random starcraft/ gaming fans in like spain or something lol, not the worst time ever

People generally arent that stuck up, most are very accepting.... unless of course they personally dont like you and are looking for something to hate on, so no big loss anyways

If you are doing this worrying about what anyone else will think, you probably shouldnt get one.

Everyone gets tat's for their own reasons, yours shouldnt be influenced at all by some strangers' opinions online.

And if you are getting it for other people to respond to, or care what others think, maybe you should think twice about this.

And LOL at Tattoos = a sign of being tough.
Most people who get tattoo's are gettin em for personal reasons, and usually dont get a tattoo for the idea of "now strangers will think im a badass and ladies will think im cool."


If you take one step outside of Westernized contemporary or culture, you'd know tattoos actually had a symbolic and worthy meaning during the process and the final result.

Wow please assume yourself more intelligent than everyone you speak to, and assume they are ignorant from 2 lines in a single post.

Thanks for trying to show people your wealth of invaluable and irrelevant knowledge to the current subject.

I thought it was fairly obvious he wouldn't be getting a tattoo to show his status as a warrior or chieftain.

Thanks for telling the world something that everyone who isn't an idiot knows.


No problem, though to be fair. Just because you aren't knowledgeable in another culture or aspect of history, doesn't make you an idiot.

Neither does not considering this point of view, so don't worry. No need to be over reactionary when I want to show the world how smart I am in my social studies!!!11

Quoted for proving my point. First: assuming something about a person without ANY evidence, just to attempt to feel superior.
2nd: Would be funny if your last line was more sarcasm than reality.

In most cases, people will be like: "hey, it's your body" and shrug. That's my final emotion I believe. Go for it, but get your views and ideas straight. Don't try to make it more than it really is and what it truly means to you. Dressing it up just seems like you're trying too hard to express something you can do with another method (easily so apparently with your talent).

Wear a StarCraft shirt :B

Anyways, I've raped this topic plenty. Good luck!

It's sincerity, I'm only blatantly sarcastic. So unfortunately for you, I'm not as cynical as you want me to be ): (edit: see how I start sincere and end with blatantly comedic sarcasm that isn't attacking you?)

nice edit, I won't bite though.

Well you can either read what i wrote on page 1, or if Torte de Lini sees it necessary, first you should research the etymology and history of the art of Tattoo. Then you should probably do some research on the psychological aspects of both receiving a tattoo and seeing a tattoo on a stranger.
Also you should probably check with a therapist to see if you can handle the social and mental requirements of someone who gets a visible tattoo.

DO it, if that's what you love and what you like.
Welcome to 21st century, tattoo is not represent gangs anymore. It's what you believe, like jewelry on your body.

It is your body, you can ruin it however you like.


Not something I would ever do.


Keep in mind that for a large portion of the older population tattoos DO have a negative stigma towards them and hence can negatively effect you in terms of employment. This is not as bad with the younger generations.
Taking this into mind, get it in a non-obvious place (an area covered when wearing clothing preferably) to make life a little easier.

I know people with super mario tattoos that don't even play video games. I know people with Zelda tattoos because they love that game. Get a tattoo if you don't mind having it forever.

don't get the tatoo its too permanent for anything mysterious. Wear some cool shades, get a new wardrobe thats you and your mysteriosity (not a word i know). Finally get some new hobbies these are all better for you than a tattoo. Along with the fact they will probably make you meet new people :D, thus making your mysteriosity (again i know not a word) find more people to mystify!
