I actually went searching for this kind of smilie here in a GC thread that made a particularly revolting comment, and was shocked to realize that EoFF did not have a *bangs head against the wall* smilie, despite how often one could be used. So I went and stole one from another MB.
Hmm... sometimes that kind of smiley would be good, but it could risk turning into one of those "inflammatory smileys" - the kind people use when they want to be awful to one another without actually posting flame. The :rolleyes2 smiley ( :rolleyes2 ) is an example of one we've already got which has that kind of effect. It tends to get used frequently as the "omg u r dum" smiley, and that's what could easily happen to a head-bangin' smiley.
If we're talking about head-bangin`, I demand that we have the rocker back.
Seconded. :rock:Quote:

So is this feedback with rejection?
I can't believe I haven't noticed this before. Raistlin is only two letters away from raisin.
I propose a "Fail" smilie.
:blahblah:

Ooh, that one's good.Quote:

The yellow one is like, "Oh my god I'm surrounded by stupids" while the orange one is like "I'm ANGRY *headbang*" xD
This is a better version of the one WesLY posted:
Although I like the shading on WesLY's version. I'd make a better version of that but I frankly can't be arsed :smash:
Yeah, that's a good description of the difference. The former is more appropriate for my purposes.Quote:

Levian wins.
That is the most hilarious thing I have read here in a while. :love:Quote:

I don't think Samus and Simon should be available and public to the entire member base unless you want tons of them at the end of every post just because they're there and running or dying.
What the hell, I've been calling him Raisin for at least a year now, or whenever the hell it was we decided that'd what we'd change his name to at Aiyon. You people are ignorant. >:O
No, you're just brown.

What happened to that one thread with all the Calvin and Hobbes ones? Now THOSE were some kickass smilies
If you want cool smilies, go to Aiyon, silly.
I'm with Big D on this one.
The last time I was bored and went there, Ayion was a ghost town
Aiyon is pretty active now that we host the Eoff Post there.
Aiyon has no good smilies, with the possible exception of that beer one, that's probably the best beer smiley on the internets.
No, I do not class Wasim Akram and the Hurricane as good.
Which I'm happy for, because you liking Aiyon's smilies would be like Rirse saying he loves my grammar.
Oh ho ho, obligatory oldbie jokes, references to Aiyon and the discrediting of Psy's taste in something. This must be the Feedback Forum!
People discredit my taste in Feedback now? Oh no, we're not going down that road. I'm not going to be your new Raistlin when he finally croaks. :irked:
How many of these threads have we had now?
The emoticon request thread is the lowliest of the Feedback threads, usually created by the dimwitted and slow, in the vain attempt to prove His worth to the forum elite.

When you feel so frusterated over something that someone said on a message board that you want to bang your head against the wall, that could just be God's little way of saying it's time to unplug the computer and take a walk outside.
Flamethrower speaks true. :cat:
Why even bother asking to have smilies added when you can just load whatever smilies you want onto Photobucket and then use them at your leisure? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...Arehandora.gif
Oh! *Saves Kitty* :cat:
First off: I agree with this. But not in the sense you mean.Quote:

Secondly: However, something I've never understood - why, when something is said over the internet, is it "less" than what is actually said offline? The aforementioned frustration stems from hearing/reading the same hashed "facts" over and over under different names and motives. Why is it perfectly okay to feel irritated when something is heard said or read in a paper, but not read over the internet? Is the internet world somehow less real?
Because no one cares what you say or think on the Internet. Or at least I don't, and that's all that really matters.
It's not :joey2: dammit. It's :roo:. His name is Roo.
I was looking through my documents for that one but you had already posted it. <3Quote:

I never understood the "arguing on the Internet is dumb" argument. It's no more or less stupid than arguing offline. A discussion is a discussion, whether written, spoken, or typed.
EDIT: Also, the "arguing on the Internet is dumb" statement is typically given by people who want to feel superior by implying their superiority of being "above" arguing on the Internet. The same logic could be applied to the "everyone on the Internet is dumb" statement.
No, it's just I could kick your ass offline.
What about implying your superiority of being 'above' arguing anywhere? And applying that logic to make a 'everybody in the world is dumb' statement? Would those be ok?
I take a five website stroll every morning. It keeps me trim.
I just realized that the 'arguing on the Internet is dumb' argument is a contradiction. Neato.
xD Touche.Quote:

Just as bad, definitely. Probably even more irritating offline. Sometimes I don't want to debate, simply because I don't want to, for a variety of possible reasons, but not because I'm "above" arguing.Quote:

G'job.Quote:

Just start laughing maniacally and call people, "you fools", whenever the situation arises.
Aiyon needs more smilies too, and if you people actually bothered posting there I could finally take my rightful spot as top poster :cool:
What you say offline has more value because I can punch you in the face.
Is there a point to this topic now?
I think Raist is just being crotchety. :\
I think a :poop: smilie might be a good future addition. :|
You could probably rip one off deviantart, as they have a few of them. :screwy:
No, actually, I made that one and uploaded it with the panda ones and they made me take it down.Quote:

I simply laugh it off and see the comedy in the sitiuation. Life's too short to be offended or pissed off by somebody's opinion, and yes, that includes opinion's from both online and offline.
Also, one thing you must understand about arguing on the Internet: 99.5% of the time, no one's opinion is going to change because of you. As long as you accept that, have at it.
Absolutely. But that's not exclusive of the Internet.Quote:

I would actually hope they would act like their opinion is a fact. But that's another discussion entirely. :)Quote:
