Title: 'Clickable Smilies'


Vall3y - September 27, 2006 07:02 PM (GMT)
I have some complaines about the 'quick' 'Clickable Smilies' pics when making a post...
they look good, but some of them are usless and some kinda express the same feeling.
lets take this for example :banana: . wtf is that supposed to be? lol
:metal: :boing: :jawdrop: :bowdown: :vhappy: are also kinda stupid. i suggest removing them all.
i dont mean they are completly usless, but they arent very common.
now lets look at these: :angry: :pullhair: :banghead: :angryfire: . 3 smilies for angry. id leave :angry: and take off the rest.
why isnt there a sad expression?
i advice you to look at some other forum's smilies.
remember they are supposed to show me quick common basic expressions, and not dancing banana s :banana: :banana: :banana:

Click on Show All below the smilies to see a whole bunch of smilies. You'd be better off using little to no smilies, though. Makes easier for people to read it, haha.

now that i click there i see some really better more common smilies.

the idea is that i wont go open that window with all those smilies every time i wanna put a :(

Then just type
CODE
:(
It's not that hard to remember. The ones you'll be using the most are probably:

CODE
:(
:)
:D
:P
;)
<_<
:rolleyes:
:unsure:
:lol:



Remember those, and you won't be needing the clickable smilies. :)

dude, if zombo takes the banana out of the clicable smilies, im leaving ucpsb.

Vall3y - September 27, 2006 07:38 PM (GMT)
i know these codes, but still
shouldnt such common and so-used smilies replace such akward unusuall smilies :metal: WTF DUDE?

Zombo - September 27, 2006 07:39 PM (GMT)
well the way I think is that, the most common emoticons are naturally known to people, and it is easier for people to type
CODE
:)


then actually click on it.

So what would be the point of putting it in the quick list, since most people type it, even if there's no emoticon attached to it or anything.

I am only putting in "cool" emoticons, but whose shortcuts are harder to remember in the click list.

Ok?

i guess we just think diffrently
:banana:

to enlighten ivan's point, the banana can seriously basically be used for anything.


Like this:

Nice mod! :banana:

Then when i saw a neobak fall i just :banana:

and it can be used to express sarcasm

flame war avoided with a banana!
