Re: Abdul here. Testing 1 2 3
Oh dearie me. Abdul, man, the smilies here are far, far beyond lame. Far, far, far beyond lame. At some point, you might want to consider disabling them in your profile because seriously, it's a smiley madhouse up in here.
Still, the good news is I once rode the Orient Express to Istanbul. It kicked ass.
Welcome to FF, Abdul.

I know, huh? I bet ceptimus is snickering behind his big, waxed, curled up at the ends handlebar mustache right now.

Re: Abdul here. Testing 1 2 3
The smileys here are so far beyond lame they circle the entire universe and arrive just on the other side of lame.
This may be the source of Abdul's confusion.
Welcome aboard, Abdul. Hope you enjoy your stay. As penance for your smiley remark, I suggest that each of your posts must contain a minimum of 5 non-lame smileys.

There is but one non-lame smiley here ==>
And it should not be over-used.
This one is borderline ==>
I will not disable smilies, because I want to know who is lame.

Re: Abdul here. Testing 1 2 3
Erm... Abdul? You don't think the smilies you see on the right when you're making a new post are the only ones here, right? Because there are 1830 others waiting behind the "More" link.

Hopefully it will encourage you to be more discriminating in the future.

In the long and storied history of the FF, has a smiley ever been banished?

Oh sure. Before we opened I did major smiley purges at least 3 times. Once we went live, however, I couldn't do that anymore because banishment of any smiley which had already been posted would leave bereft smileytext instead of a pretty picture.
I have replaced a couple, though. is the most recent example of that.

Ahh, so by that rationale, if suitable replacements could be found, we could remove these smileys that are not up to par?
Or could we?
I mean, if were to replace the big green freaky "Welcome" smiley with something else, then all those posts about how freaky the big green freaky "Welcome" smiley would be rendered with a completely different smiley which might not be big, green or freaky.
That would bother you, wouldn't it?

Re: Abdul here. Testing 1 2 3
It would only bother me insofar as all previous discussions of green freaky would no longer make sense. Like this one, for instance.

Simple solution to that is to prune all the threads. About time this place had a good spring clean anyhow.
* ceptimus runs. Runs zig-zag in case she has a gun.

First you drag Abdul over here to talk smack about the hoard, then you suggest database mutilation. There ain't a zig-zag fast enough, son.

Re: Abdul here. Testing 1 2 3
Pick me, I'm lame!
Blind in one eye, too. And I have not one, not two, but THREE front teeth missing. I've got perfect hearing, though. And, happily, I squeak when I talk.
So how about you - wa'choo got?
Cheers!
