# means this player supports the over throw of all oppressive capitalist governments
(@) mans this player supports one world government
^@^ means this player supports green world environmentalist rule

There's about a hundred loving symbols they've made so people can put in their gamertags and they're arguing about which symbols would be more fitting.

The problem is this

quote:

Only put in the symbols to your game tag or game profile of causes you support. It will be assumed that if you leave out signs that you are against the said causes

There's a set text character limit for every type of service like Live and PSN. And there are more signs popping up than any service could allow.
