Smilies
 

The smilies here at MT kinda suck ballsack. Maybe that was the plan all along though, so nobody uses them? Well either way they really suck. I got an assload of good ones if you want.

:idea: :behead:

I remember when we got new ones...IT WAS SO FUN. :alc: :band: :horse: :spider: :banger: :finger: :smoke: :rofl: :banger: :beer2: :grave: :tomato: :handed: :guitar:

That's what all the posts looked like. haha. :lhdevil:

Actully i should reword that, we should get different ones in the MAIN post area.

We should all find some new ones post them here and see if Nomad aprroves of them.

this would be the most useful one i can think of

Actually the relapse board (sucks now though) has the best one ever. It's a picture of Fenriz of Darkthrone gripping an invisible grapefruit.
Can be used in place of wrods such as: |< \/ |_ T and gr1m. Haha

Why would we need more smileys? Everytimewe hadnew ones, everyone loves them, and after a week they are hardly ever used.
About 90% of the smileys we have aren't used.
:spider:

Smilies are shit. What's wrong with words?

A generation of idiots that grew up looking at picture books instead of reading?

Sometimes you can't tell when people are being sarcastic on the internet... that's where smilies come in though you could always go "j/k" ...
some smilies are just retarted though... like who is EVER going to need the 'riding on a horse' one??

See, this is a complaint I don't believe. For centuries, authors could convey sarcams using nothing but text, but magically the ability to do so evaporated with the advent of the internet? Bullshit.

But I bet Alex'll add onto the number of stupid smilies if you guys want.

Ha, very true, I never considered that. Alot of people type like shit on the internet anyway, and you can't tell what the hell they mean even it's in perfect English.. I say lack of puncuation marks and shit like just saying 'ok' have alot to do with it.

I agree. Especially if you know the person's internet personality. The only one here I'd change is to put the :birthday: on the main list.
I had a bunch of crazy ones on one of the old tc's, but that's when we had a bomb set up and as an admin assistant I could upload them. A few people submitted them to me to do it. The garden forum I'm on has some cool ones. They don't have a HB one at either place.
