Okay, maybe not all, but I'd like to propose a serious culling of the smiley-list. I mean, omfg :mad:

I was actually thinking something along those lines the other day... I'd imagine that's only something Tundra or Sillypants could do.
And, as a side-suggestion, what about getting the little "most-used" smilies box updated or something?
...Also, this thread should prolly go in another forum. With Management and stuff.
But good idea Aimey!

I didn't post it there because no-one but NO-ONE ever checks that forum! And I want a discussion on the matter!
I'm just wondering why we're still using this particular smiley-set (along with the junk that originally came with it??) when vB has so much to offer. Such as:

I've always wanted a sweatdrop smiley.
...though I use anime-ish text smilies, so I don't really care that much. ^_^

I agree the smiley list is way too long. But its kinda silly to request it when you know that Tundra is on holidays.

I check the management forum... a couple of times a year. I do try to make a point of checking it more often.
But anyways, yes, I think probably a few could be done without. Beginning with the 3Dish ones. Yes, they might be cool but they're highly impractical.

As a self-appointed forum-policewoman during Tundra's absence, I second the motion to put this into the suggestions forum. In addition, I feel that the regular smilies work fine and we don't need fancy stuffs.

July 17th, 2007, 03:37 PM
yeah, I probably could, but a) I have no idea how, and b) I wouldn't be doing it while Tundra's away. Maybe when she gets back we can get her to look into it?

Actually, this is the perfect time! This way, when Tundra gets back, she can make an instantaneous decision based on what we've said here, rather than having to worry about it for days!
Also, I def. want the "fancy" smilies gone. You know, the diablo smiley and its ilk.

I'm not even sure how those game sprites got on the smiley list... @_@

I'm betting she's not going to be deciding based off what we've said here. Plus, she'll think about it anyway, instead of just making the decision right off.
Maulden, I know SP is the official forum police, but I decided that I should help.

Abysmal. :D Especially with a pencil, because I don't press down on the paper hard enough so the writing ends up really faint... ^^

As opposed to my pencil writing which you can't rub out if you try--very hard.

Id rather write in pencil, due to my dislexic tendencies to muddle up letters and spell things wrong.

I can't stand writing in pencil, but I'm madly addicted to fancy pens. I used to drive math teachers mad by always doing problems in pen instead of pencil.

I'm used to mechanical pencils, myself. I've got quite a few too. >_>
...which reminds me, I need to buy a new favorite pencil. I broke the clip on my old one during final exams a semester or two ago. @_@

I know people who intentionally snap those off of every pen they use. *shrug* I'm not really sure why. They're useful.

It was an accident. I was getting fidgety during the test, I think. >_>
Maulden: (reading test) "Explain the theory behind..."

Maulden: "...I liked that pencil. T_T"
...something like that, anyways. ^_^
