As someone who’s been on here for over 15 years, along with several others in the Welsh community, I speak for many of us when I say we really, really, REALLLY want a Welsh flag as an option for representation—both for our community and our national identity. I understand that we have the Union Jack as an "overall representation," but I don’t think it goes far enough in representing us. Below, I will lay out my reasons.
The British government recognizes the national flags of each nation, and each flag is flown alongside the Union Jack. There is no political contention between these flags, as they are also recognized by several countries around the world.
The Union Jack has no Welsh representation, unlike the Scottish, Northern Irish, and English flags. I, along with many in my community, feel that there isn’t enough representation for our people within the Union Jack.
Final point—and probably the most important one… IT’S GOT A DRAGON ON IT! People across IMVU would love to have the optics of our Ddraig Coch (Red Dragon) on their profile cards!!!!!
So be a legend—let us get what we want and just please add the flag.
On top of that, there's overseas British territories that also has representation!

I agree completely as a welsh person I find it very disrespectful to see flags from countries I have NEVER heard of...and honestly, sound made up. Why is there no Welsh flag?? WYH??? It has a red dragon on it!! It is by far the BEST flag in the world and that you have not included it in your supposed inclusive flag array is diabolically wrong.... I urge you to rectify this over sight ASAP!!!!!
