VistaLover Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) I've noticed this yesterday (Feb 15th 2020), using several different browsers, being logged-in/logged out and with my content blocker (on which MSFN ads are allowed ) OFF - I've cleared browser cache, restarted browser, all to no avail ; actual flags are missing for me...

Sure , and I represent the Tuscan,(not Roman) speaking community, I should have the same right as you have, and my banner of choice is also neither CIS nor national).
