Default How many smileys?

No, not how many distinct ones in the library.

How many total smilies are contained in all the posts, including duplicates?

Default Re: How many smileys?

I would begin by assuming that an 'average' post has, say, five smilies (remember that some posts have hundreds). So just multiply total posts by aspp.
