Thread: Reality Checking

Well first off, it wasn't written like that. Second, I said I'd upload a picture soon. Third, don't double post. Fourth, I realize I didn't explain that well.

Hah I was actually quoting Dizko, not you:

I missed your previous post, which was:

Without seeing the above, I had no idea what "Japanese salute" Dizko was referring to.

After seeing your post, however, I get it - but it's a Chinese gesture, not a Japanese one, which was what made me get all confused as to what Dizko was referring to.

No worries.

P.S. You explained it just fine.

=P Sorry for the confusion.

Fine >_<

It might look stupid when doing some RCs, like the watch RC, or jumping RC.
That's why i use the hand RC, and the vision RC + some others ;D

Hehe, just for laughs I took a few pics with a shite webcam. Be aware I took these when half awake, and I hadn't showered yet Quite crude, but the idea gets across at least. Better ones to spread the word later.

Also, it should be closer to chest level. Webcam wouldn't allow for that easily though.

Nice.

Maybe we should use two fingers? something about the one finger just looks a bit..weak?

Yeah, two fingers looks more...good.

Needs to be made official

Providing everyone is in agreement.

Nice hair Exo!

That's what I thought it would be from the description. I thought maybe that it could be tilted down 90 degrees so your hand is parallel with tthe ground.

Two fingers looks gay. One finger is better. It looks more like you're doing an RC than doing a stupid and sign, which is what two fingers looks like. Two fingers makes it look like you need to bow also.

wo fingers makes it look like you need to bow also.

Or like something from an anime

I have to say this is a great idea. I personally like the nose brush then the 2-fingered solute. (sp?) But either way is cool. A mod should make a topic about this and sticky it! I would be more than willing to go around other LD'ing websites and spread the word about the sign. (honestly) I will get started once the signal is official.

How does 2 fingers look even remotely homosexual?

Oh and on another note. Maybe if you see someone doing the salute, you should reply with a nose RC. This way when you give the salute to someone, and they reply with a nose RC, you know for sure they are a LDr, and not just some randomer copying you.

You have awesome hair! I'm so envious!

I don't think it matters which you do as long as you try too push your finger through your palm. Maybe it should be done twice though; like for verification.

that's one of the RC i use to do to that doesn't take all the attention so people begin to wonder if it's something wrong with me.

OK, so lets get this straight!

1st person: Finger through hand at chest height, as Exo does in the picture.
2nd person: Nose RC

That looking right?

What if the person isn't looking at you? Like they do it in a crowded location to see if anybody will respond. Should the be a word also?

"Sweet Dreams"

Yea sweet dreams lol.


So who makes it official?

Me. I'm the official officializer of official hand signals. It is now official.

This officialization has been officially approved.




----
Maybe a sticky on the forum.

someone should send this tread to a admin or moderator...we all need to post the one pic of Dizco on our sigs

im so down with this plan ...great idea
