Chris,

General Ripper and I are pleased that you've decided to join the fight....the fight against EMOTICONS!

[Leftseat86]

We should order all civilian radios confiscated as they could be used to issue instructions to saboteurs...and to transmit emoticon signals...such as
*:*, *-*, or *)*

[Chris_SE]

i think the dictionary post meant to say "its called substantial"

why not turn off the emoticons completely? just allow =)

[DeltaCappy]

So now were shutting down this smilie thingys. Jeeze, whats next.

Emoticons are good when used in a good post with something to say. But when all there is in a post is a bunch of smiley's clapping it pisses me off.

Don't be surprised, General Ripper gave fair warning of this action a few weeks ago.

Remember?

[DeltaCappy]

Your too funny.

Have to agree though, alot of those damn clappy ones just in one post is annoying.

[Leftseat86]

This forum actually has a pretty good emoticon selection.

Best emoticons ever are in MSN though...

The emoticon's corrupt people like they are some sort of wealth, we support General Ripper's mission.

MSN does have sweet emoticons

Chris. As you are one of the three moderators and I assume that you all agree on this subject. Your next step is to announce the day it comes into effect. Thanks for the decision.

[DeltaCappy]

Whats the big deal.

God you people freak out over the smallest things.

[ptbodale]

You are right Cory. I don't care either, however if they (moderators) make the decision then go with it and don't agonize about it.
