Their icon's still rainbow. They really need to return to green for marketing purposes. Rainbow creepers don't exist.

Woah woah man, I'll slow you down here. The rainbow flag symbolizes LGBTQIA+, and Minecraft has the rainbow flag for a reason - to support people like gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and more. Why would you want them to remove it in the first place? It would make no sense to take that off after promoting Pride Month and LGBTQIA+ in the past, that's a very risky move considering Mojang has been supporting the group for very long, just like most of us.TheGameyFireBro105 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 02, 2021 10:50 pmTheir icon's still rainbow.

I'm saying this as someone who is an LGBTQIA+ ally.
I highly doubt any of this would happen. Official Minecraft news and posts have never mentioned anything about a super secret rainbow creeper in the game, at all. It's clear they know their intentions - to celebrate Pride. So I don't think a kid would mistake that for a "super secret rainbow creeper", by now we're all aware that the LGBTQIA+ is here with us, and it'll be easy for kids to understand as well.TheGameyFireBro105 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 03, 2021 11:17 pm2. They could easily modify the icon to be a creeper head in front of the flag, or they could change charged creepers to be rainbowy. While I may be pro LGBTQ+, I'm also a man who understands marketing. (While you could argue it's like chiseled sandstone, it isn't.) A little kid might be dumb enough to believe there's a chance they may find a rainbow creeper. I hate to see misinformed people, especially kids, who can be extremely stubborn. Somewhere out there might be a kid that thinks rainbow creepers and herobrine are real, despite being frequently told otherwise. (it may just be my extremely weird anxiety talking, tho). As a bonus, the head being made distinct would also make the icon follow the game's art style. SQUARES!!!
Glad to see it's back:)
Because there were 2 mobs that didn't make it.
