    I'm not one of the earlier members of the forum but I kinda remember that the birthday cake icon is pricier and that the blue ribbon icon was for the bl lovers and the pink rose is for the gl lovers.

    I don't know the history of the rebel icon, my fave one... or when did we ever had icons... if nuffies came first or icons came with nuffies... so help?

    I don't mind accepting a rebel icon donation since I'm quite poor these days

    Edit 1: To the kind soul who gifted the icon, Thanks! :aww:

    Birthday icons price kept rising because everyone kept buying cakes for @Shem . Whenever it calmed down, it would be lowered. It was around 1k at one point.

    The blue ribbon was adopted by Bl lovers and the rose by Gl lovers to be friendly between themselves. It doesn't actually represent them so if you like it, just purchase it .

    The Rebel icon is symbol of hope against the tyranny of @Tony

    I vaguely remember because it was @SummerForest and other bl lovers who requested for a bl lover icon.
    I had this thought to make a thread like this because when I see someone gift a pink flower to others, I'm reminded that it's supposed to be a gl icon... I laugh a little every time

    I think what happened was they purchased it for each other but it was a timed icon so they requested it to @Tony that the icon should stay. Something along that line, so in my mind it has always been and will always be the bl icon :blobrofl:

    Was there a rebel group and a leader?

    It's prolly another one of Tyrant Tony's plans to con the gentle citizens of NUF out of their farmed hard-earned NUFfies just like the NUFfies tax... I mean, it practically reads I-con... how much more proof do you need? :blobpeek:

    Ahh yeah that's what happened. It started with @Blitz gifting it to some bl lovers and @Nyann picking it up from there. Stuff happened and Tony then made it permanent if I remember.

    Rebel group id forever lead by devils advocate @Das o/

    Well, considering just by being alive in the forum you get free nuffies, I think people will get bored without anything to spend it with or forget its existence :blobrofl:

    Blackjack is the real scam
    How did the rebel progress? AAAAAAAHHHHHHH I'm curious :notlikeblob:

    Ahahaha... I ignore that knowledge myself, because I don’t particularly like the blue ribbon, and the pink rose is my favorite, because it reminds me of Hamster Mama... :blobsweat_2:

    Personally, I find it a little unfair that a small amount of people decided the meanings of the icons for the rest of us.

    Although Hamster Mama’s favorite flower was orchids, she used the rose as a symbol for decades, so when she died, I even put a carved rose on her gravestone. I don’t particularly like the idea of anytime I’m using the rose to remember Hamster Mama, people are thinking I’m a part of the GL sect.

    The rebel icon is from @Das who's the leader of the rebel.

    As for the question on who's the NUF mascot?
    OFC, IT'S OUR BEST GRIL TONY!

    He give his fans his used panties.

    Icons are still ordinary objects after all so even if nuf's ancient and outdated history considered it as the icon for the GL sect, nothing is stopping others from using it as they want and attach their own symbolism to it. As @Aho has said, "You do you"
    He's been away so much lately, that I nearly forgot all the wild rumours about his existence. *sigh*

    The creator and mascot is Tony. Don't forget best girl! (which some girls wanted to woke against to get Tony cancelled with cancel culture because Tony was more popular than them)
    Justabot is justabot. The omnipresent op that informs the uninformed.

    Don't forget the @Parth37955 fund!
    Also, your tags are horrendous.
