well... they are still here... but, you will NOW need to type in the "code" for them.. (like :smile1: or whatever the "name" of the emoticon is)

why u ask ?? well... seems that every time someone made a post, 50+ of those damn things would get re-downloaded each time (killing lefty's server)... and 60+ lines were added to the html log (not a very good thing) :biggrin:

enjoy :biggrin:

well if ppl had fast connections there would be no problem.this code thing makes things more complicated now we have to memorize them. let me try one here to see if it works. if it doesnt work tell me what i did wrong.

machine1: look what you said and look what TMYAPP said... you understood wrong !

it isn't "OUR" connection who is the problem, it is "FORUM SERVER" who is. you see when you have more then 190,000 person coming each day, even if he has a really high connection to the internet... it will just drop down on everyone causing "LAG" to the "SERVER". so he had to recuperate some of his speed and one of the way he found was by getting rid of those "sometime annoying" little smillies !

now do you understand what he said and why he had them removed ?

i will copy that picture, so i can have the smillies i need !

ok no big tragedy. so you have to remember the smiles code so what? If you want to you can even copy TMy's pic so you won't have to remember. my god all this fuss over a bunch of little faces... :music: besides it could be MUCH worse they could just turn off all the smiley's So basicly we don't have a say in it. :plain: We just go with the flow that's life for ya.... :( yeah it sucks but there's nothing we can do about it well life goes on. :yinyang:

This won't really affect me to much, because i hardly use smiles in any of my post. Besides some people tend to go berzerk when using smiles. This will help to maybe stop that from happening and cut down on the work the server has to do.

08-16-2002, 11:03 PM
actually i kind hated those smileys.i am glad they are gone.

well it's not all bad about the smillies because if u liked a certain one u can still use it everytime. All u have to do is write the ones u like down on a stickey note and put it on ur computer :) TJ5 u said that "95% of cyclops users r cheap and 5% r not!! Well i thing 99.5% of cyclops users r cheap and 0.5% r not :angryfire:
