My Favorite Smiley Disappeared !!

This is B/S. The old default original smiley is gone again. Nobody asked anyone it is just gone. We ..... or rather the devs at SRP, did an update last year and took away many of the tried and true beauteous smilies and replaced them with emoticons that are inferior to those they took away. Not a big deal you say ....... well there was no discussion .... no vote ... a few devs .... or maybe just one of them ? took it upon themselves to change the character of posting for everyone.

I don't know about anyone else but I use those emoticons to express my feelings, the intent behind my thoughts ..... the menu of images we have now ....:td has impaired my ability to completely express myself and it really annoys the hell out of me. End of rant. :rant:

Sorry to hear about the lost smiley.

......................

Muahahaha, like taking candy from a baby

Hey, maybe this could be the new smiley for the next secretly scheduled bubble-bursting upgrade?

Too late, the big boss already saw it and the ninjas are gearing up .... ";"

You devs think you're hot stuff doncha ? Hey .... when I grow up .... I'm gonna be a dev ..... and then lookout ... no mercy .... :gwh:

I hope he had his coffee first.

Slartibartfast, I don't want to speak for Jimmy, but I personally feel he is entitled to a full refund for services - no, check that; lack of services rendered here on SRP

I mean come on, even our ancestors relied on their favorite forum smileys, and what do we get? cheeky little yellow faces? ridiculous!

I knew I could count on your support Lee ....... :banghead: .... See this is a good example ..... if we had the 'old' emoticons I could have posted the one puking which would have better conveyed the sarcasm ...... :shrug:

:overkill: ............

You go Jimmy! This anarchy has to stop! Just like your avatar...no more B/S! :rofl2:

You young whipper snappers don't know how good you got it! Why, I remember when I first joined this here forum we had to connect using a piece of string and a baked bean can, and if you wanted smileys you had to make them yourself out of asterixes, commas, full stops and lines. The really fancy guys used letters too. Now it's all plugin this, animated that....soft!

Its progress, Jimmy. We old farts just don't get why we have to replace the old bugs with new ones.

At least we don't have some slimy salesman flapping his gums about how its not really a bug, its a feature.

Next release will make your old smileys stay in place until the expiration of your longest running ad.

Devs!: A cut in pay is in order :)

Perhaps a scotch fund should be established for the Devs - for having to listen to our bellyaching.

I got news for you mate - they don't listen.... :)

Yet, that's not a reason to abandon a perfectly good idea! Let the scotch drip like <self censored>!!!

I've decided to remove the classifieds in order to remove the bugs from the system...

//or do I?

It's like Stalin said "Death solves all problems - no man, no problem"
Burn it all, the ISH will sort the bits out!

Remember a time when men would express themselves with words?

Or, maybe we would have been better off with emoticons?
