Title: One rule I have a problem with.
Post by: sleepin_dude_99 on September 25, 2007, 05:51:16 PM
Seriously.

We can't use awesome. I know, stupid smiley, etc. etc.

But that actually has situations where it can be used. It means "Awesome." So, basically.

"DUDE! *insert character here* made it to Brawl! awesome;"

The smiley there means that it's awesome that whoever made it to Super Smash Brothers Brawl.

Nothing wrong with that!

I understand things like "Hey. awesome;"

"What's up? awesome;"

Etc.

But not in proper uses? That's just wrong.

And what about other smileys? Such as...

Can we use them in proper situations?

We hate awesome; because of the idiots who abused on Ye Olde NSider.

Not to assume you all will do the same, but I guess the admins are taking precautions.

I could say the same to you about your dog.

Oh, quit complaining.

See what I mean?

DAMN ENTER KEY!

Anyway...

BUT!

I didn't. I actually told you a good reason to do what I did, not tell you to shut up and get over it.

Perhaps if Nsiders didn't make smiley-only posts consisting solely of awesome;, it wouldn't have become a problem.

...Who made that rule? Wasn't me. psyduck;

I'm fine with you using it as long as it's not obnoxious, i.e. too much.

I wasn't being rude. I was being serious. :|

Crying makes you stop crying sooner, so nothing is all bottled up for later.

Redraider is the one responsible in this case I think. NEVER EVER EVER USE THE AWESOME SMILEY OR BAN!

Yeah, I dislike that rule as well. Banning a smiley because it's abused makes no sense.
Why not just go ahead and ban people from saying "yep" because people make entire posts out of it while you're at it?

Yeah, that is one rule that is sorta weird...

I mean it should be allowed, as long as it isn't butchered, but the moment someone uses it just as a post, with nothing else in it, immediate ban for dem.  :)

Fine then, I'm making my own smily.

Can't wait to see how that turns out ;p

Yeah, it was definitely abused back on NSider, and like Snorkel, I don't have a big issue with it as long as it's used in the same amounts as swearing (or somewhere close).

Aside from that...yeah, it's still a smiley, so it's not totally harmful to your eyes...maybe...

Then why not ban the indifferent smiley too? It was abused. :| Seriously, that REALLY stupid.  :|

I know, that smiley was abused twice as much as any other. :|
People made entire quote towers of pure indifferent smilies...
