Increase the emoticons count (per post)

[Captainkidd]

I think the emoticon count per post should be increased.

 

 

 

Blogscape is one sections that would definitely appreciate this update as some sentences just need one at the middle/end to make them get there point across, peoples blogs have soo much writing that they require more emoticons, yet they can't have them.

 

 

 

Note: I do not wish to add more emoticons, just more per post

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks!

Emoticons can't be added to specific boards only; they apply to all. So if we add any of them, they'll be on all boards.

Oh... :uhh:

 

 

 

 

 

However, if you have suggestions for Emoticons, if you post them, an Admin can probably review them and determine whether they're necessary or useful.

I don't want new emoticons, just more on a single post...

 

 

 

As for the 'Guide' with links of picture of the emoticons...can I make it?

[InkofDeath]

Happiness: :D

 

Laughter: :lol:

 

Love:

 

Luckiness: =P~ 8-)

 

Scared/Fear: :uhh: :ohnoes:

 

Sarcasm: Yes this may be one that's needed. Points to OT.

 

Jealous:

 

 

 

You can have every basic emotion with the current smiles. Don't need more.

 

 

 

And from your above post, are you saying more emotions per post? :-s

 

 

 

Also, if you want new emotions, get the emotions yourself, and then present them, asking why, they would be good, and help the poster, as an admin will probably decide yes, or no. Then again you got some hard competition.

The only thing he is trying to get across right now is having the ability to have more than 10 emoticons per post. I'm for upping the limit to 20, 30, or more - there's no reason for having it be so restrictive just to prevent some random spam post. I personally think there is no need to have so many emoticons per post... but I know people get hit by the limit when they quote someone or whatnot.

 

 

 

I've seen a handful of complaints about it just on random threads throughout the boards... so it would be nice if that restriction was loosened up a bit. I see no argument for it from a user OR staff perspective - either way, a problem post can be removed easily.. and the limit will still be in place to "defend" against huge spam posts that don't load.

On a similarly related subject, a new user-designed emote might be a good subject of a rank contest :P

[tryto]

I've only gotten hit by the limit when quoting several people, but I have nothing against it. People can spam just as easily with letters or numbers.

[tripsis]

I agree that the limit should/could be raised. Back when I was maintaining my blog in BlogScape, I was constantly going over the emoticon limit. I see no harm in raising it :D During my time as a moderator, I have rarely seen people abuse smilies. I have more often seen people abuse letters or numbers to stretch out the page.

[Dragontotem]

All i want is the dancing cow milk can thingy emote :D

 

Though i think its rather too big.... Oh well ^_^

[darkblade986]

Ah. Now I understand. I didn't realize that our boards placed an emoticon limit in count, not in what there is. I had never experienced this because I rarely ever used more than 2 or 3 emoticons per post.

 

 

 

 

 

Although I do think we still need a better *Facepalm* emoticon... #-o just doesn't cut it. Perhaps this:

Except the current one looks 10x better, even if the second one brings the actual emotion out more.

Alas! My message gets though, I was un-aware that I was being broad... :anxious:, Sorry :

Now if it's still out of the question could I make a guide that has links to the emoticons uploaded on a image sharing site?

 

This was recently done... check the PMG forums.

If we do add more they should be the same style, you can tell that is diffrent from #-o and :) you can tell they are from different sets.

 

 

 

And I'm all for more emotions per post. I've tried to copy chat logs places a few times and whenever someone in chat goes

:P

or

:)

they turn to forum smilies like :P and :) when that happens you have to go through the log and find where people did those and delete them, annoying.

[Necromagus]

Actually, you can just tick the 'Disable Smilies in this post' box above the Submit button. :-w <-- See?

Yeah, I know that there's a difference, but that was really just supposed to give an idea as to what should be aimed for if/when looking for a new one.

Just spent half an hour digging for it without any luck... I'm stumped. I remember it so clearly though...

I'm up for a smilie contest which serves as a rank contest. That would be pretty cool. :)

Is the all powerful Sith going to tell us when this change comes. :D

Sorry Captain, I'm not staff anymore so your guess is as good as mine. :)

:shock: Since when?

 

 

 

And maybe the_tallest1 will stumble upon this topic, he seams to be the techy admin.

[mrmyk]

There is one emotion on my clan's forum that I really want to be here but Kill Life said it's probably copyrighted meaning we wouldn't be able to use it #-o.
