Brighton Express Posted April 14, 2012 Share #1 Posted April 14, 2012 Are we getting the 70s smileys back? Or the bus ones? Excuse me if there was already a post on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Via Garibaldi 8 Posted April 14, 2012 Share #2 Posted April 14, 2012 Good question... I really like the old ones better, aside from the fact that it actually clear what each face represents... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeystoneRegional Posted April 16, 2012 Share #3 Posted April 16, 2012 I think so since they are "restoring" the site, but the NYCTF Staff team are most likely going on pace and keep everything as precise as possible so the site runs smoothly. I'd rather have a reliable site, than a site with flashy graphics and such but poor stability, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4P3607 Posted April 16, 2012 Share #4 Posted April 16, 2012 All I know is :tup: is missing. I always use the :tup: symbol for liking people shots of the subway and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCtrainfan01 Posted April 16, 2012 Share #6 Posted April 16, 2012 How about the old face smileys like back in the old site? Ex: :tup: :mad: :cool: Just wondering if we are getting those back or are we staying with the current ones we have now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Concourse Posted April 16, 2012 Share #9 Posted April 16, 2012 Eh, I kinda like it better without the smilies. It's annoying when some people use them excessively. 1 to 4 per post, fine, but not 10+ in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's annoying when some people use them excessively. 1 to 4 per post, fine, but not 10+ in a row. When they're used to spell out names, yes it's annoying. But, it is good for making points in a post clearer and easier to understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B35 via Church Posted April 16, 2012 Share #12 Posted April 16, 2012 The one thing I don't miss are the icons for the bus routes.... The subway line icons are good.. I'll use them interchangably; for example.... Sometimes I'll just type out (for example) "Church av on the B/Q"... Sometimes I'll go Church av .... If I'm in the subway section, and it's known I'm talking about a particular line, I won't keep using the subway icons.... It irritates me to see a post with a million & one subway icons (or any smilie for the matter).... The emoticons (I guess you call em) I use sparingly, and when I do use 'em, it's to display positive emotions (the wink, the "joe cool", the "tup", etc)... I don't like using the angry, the "tdown", the roll eyes, etc..... When I'm not in favor of something, I let the words do the talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we don't have the the "tdown" icon anyway now which I do miss so I feel rather lost without it. The rolling eyes icon is just so off that I have to laugh. The old one was much better and the red face for mad... Nothing tops that one. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it is good for making points in a post clearer and easier to understand. Understood, but for example the :tups: - there is no need for more than 2 in a row. Anything '5' and more in a row is too excessive and unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Express Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share #15 Posted April 23, 2012 Well, if you hit up that R160 thread, I can tell you why it is useful.

B3 Via Av U Posted April 28, 2012 Share #16 Posted April 28, 2012 Can we have all of the old smileys back? The Stick Out Tongue and the dancing padlock ones were my favorite ones on vBulletin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
