More emoticons please..?

I would like to hereby request the addition of many more emoticons, for emoting more emotional context at ATS. Thanks for the consideration. And from what I understand, they are very easy to add with this type of forum software. People would LOVE it!

Some more would be nice, and maybe an update to the ones already in use, they are looking very dated. Starred and flagged.

I also raise my hand in favor of this. Obviously within this community there are many many people capable of creating ats orientated gifs.


Suggestion:

Why not hold a fun competition for ats members and allow them to upload their creativity and allow a vote. Lets see how well democracy runs with this simple proposition.

Yes
yes

Great idea would be good to have more emoticons

Does everyone know that you can still use the old BTS ones?

Indeed they are fun, but perhaps its time for an upgrade. I mean and am sure that there are members capable of some serious gif's and obviously perhaps and i mean perhaps, when the three amigos all convene at level - 5 at Langley they can perhaps issue an internal memo and see if it can be cleared through the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Lets face it, several dollars out the black project budget would not create a black hole at the aurora project or the rail gun launch tests



P.S. I am bumping this thread as i feel it has a positive momentum as to its outcome.

Because NewAgeMen like to be able to express their emotions- all of them.

LOL!!

:cln:

I really miss the dancing clown

Agreed!!

I've been pissed since they made the new 2010 "upgrades" and left my boys behind.

:w::shk::bash::bnghd:

BRING BACK THE BTS SMILEY BUTTONS!!!!

Not trying to come across as a complete ego maniac but what this forum really needs is a :ds: emoticon

Suggested uses would be
I was talking to in chat and he's a jerk

Let's wait and see what thinks

I am totally in love with

I think a shill e-con could be useful.

I agree. We need more emotions. Stop using this 2002ish crud and give us the opportunity to convey how we feel thru tiny animated pics!

I mean what are we? Yahoo users?

I am starring this a dozen times! I miss these! I have no idea how to do them either..



Ok an alien and a ufo icon would be AWESOME!

Oh and a cute one with glasses

Sorry to be the party pooper, but more emotions bring out more emotions.

Plus, think about how much more immature and rude comments these extra smiley emotions will bring about to your cleverly sophisticated and professional thread.

Then people will start taking offense and the cute little extra smiley emotions will be blamed and all freaking hell will break loose.

TSwillHTF here. Then,

the world will really end.

Lol, hell, who am I to say, the votes are in.

Nah, didn't know that at all, thanks for telling. I do think they could do a few updates on this site again, I think they do them every now and then though, so maybe they'll give us more (and better) emoticons when they do a whole site upgrade. No, I did not read all posts.

When i said ill support the extra emotion gifs i was thinking that perhaps some member could actually design gif's that are directed to the ats and bts side.

Common people let get that creative area of the brain working.

edit: ...to add, i also mentioned that perhaps a poll vote with a time span of 15 days. That should give many members even those who log in once a week the opportunity to vote.


Bump...!
