All right buckle up for my (probably) last ever plea on this issue. Ever had a piece of hair in your mouth that never came out? A seemingly minor issue that triggers you to infinity and beyond? This is like that for me, except its been going on for YEARS!

Now before we start, an important history lesson on the Spiral.

Part 1 (The Children of Wolverine):

On the 22nd of December, 2013, at exactly 5:16am, this wonderful image of 110KB framing at 238x157 pixels, was posted on p101 central:

The beautiful image prompted many to investigate it. Historians learned vital things from this ancient era of 2013, most notably the weapon of concern, the tiger claws, was visible in a normal, non-combat and non mounted situation. Internet archaeologist Sir "Silver" Dino Hawkins claimed it to be the greatest treasure in the spiral, beyond El Dorado, simply because the weapon was not invisible in the photo.

TL;DR Pirates could proudly display this weapon in normal, un-mounted situations, for it was not invisible.

Part 2 (Dinosaurs and Floating Claws [DFC Era]):

On the 21st to the 23rd of May, 2014, a bug report came that changed everything. The DFC era marked the inception of invisibility. Here is a primary source from that date:

Here the Ancient Pirate King Sano Musa requested the one-eyed mage, who resembled a rabbit, to fix an issue of concern- tiger claws floated awkwardly on dino mounts.

Part 2.5 (Logans lost his claws!):

And shortly after that the one-eyed mage (aka the guy who is moderating this), came up with a solution for the DFC era- The Declaration of Invisibility. It was one line, forged in the fires of flotsam, one line that changed it all:

"Tiger Claws shall become invisible on mounts"

However his assistant mage sister, One-Eared Jill, heard "Tiger claws shall become invisible!". And so they became invisible, in all situations save combat, and still are to this very day.

Part 3 (A punny hero is born):

Legend tells of a pirate named Pie Rate. He was one of the first to notice something odd:

...

And now we reach modern day. Please please fix this glitch. If you deem it a minor cosmetic issue, it will never be fixed as it is deemed unimportant. And so I ask, for the last time maybe ever, PLEASE MAKE TIGER CLAWS VISIBLE AGAIN!
