It takes longer to add those cool beer smiley's and similar when you have to click "more" before posting..

 

Or the cool smiley's where you state your position with comodo..



And a few others..

 

That I really liked.. Anyway its not that big of an deal.. But I think the old way of handling smiley's on the forum was better.. Thats just my opinion.. =)

  Why was it changed? 

EDIT:: maby this was the wrong place to post this on.. Its feedback in a way but more about the forum than CIS!  =O Feel free to move it to a appropriate board if needed. =)

because apparently, some ppl think it's annoying to have animated smileys everytime they wanna post a message.

No probs M8,

It was a collective Mod decision based on the annoyance factor and amount of time it took to render the reply page,we felt that this was a pretty good way of doing it,but there`s allways one (joking)

I do miss direct access to

ps Sorry sir didn`t realise you were posting should i get down and push em out?

To many "conservative" members didn't like all the "bounce".


Every second is precious, and now these forums take even more time.

Guess I have to live with this "smiley problem" then.. 


Will have a text file open when browsing here so I quickly can post my desired smileys!

I hadn't noticed any change because I block them all.

I like the new way smileys are handled.

I can generally spot the sarcasm, but if I do miss it and quote their post to make a reply, I see the smilies text.

I just prefer a more distraction free browsing experience. It's actually the giant animated smilies that made me block them. The more conservative smaller ones are pretty innocuous and I would have left them, but the big animated ones did me in, and rather than create various rules to block the big ones, I just blocked them all with a wildcard.
