Turning Off Smilies?

[exgman]

Is there a way to keep them from being visible on posts?

AFAIK the only way is if the poster doesn't include them.

Maybe....but it would be way complicated. Not sure why you are asking. Usually a big help- "Time to Grandma" "Time to eat Grandma"

I think the smilies are a big help in understanding the tone of a post.

It appears that for some mastering smilies is easier than mastering the English language. That snarky comment aside, I do agree that an occasional smilie is helpful in establishing the proper tone.

OMG, I thought the anti MOA Board sentiment on this forum was bad enough, but no! Now it is anti emoticons

Spring better get here quick.

I asked one simple technical question, and it turns into a mess. I should have just asked Omega Man directly, who gave me the answer...then everyone unloaded.

Spring is slightly under two months away...

Unloaded? I have seen it get much worse here. Just say we should move the National rally date and watch things get ugly.

Just having fun. There is nothing wrong with your question, no offense intended.

Maybe if he used a smilie or two we'd know if he was really mad or just joking.
