This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I just don't care. Whether you keep them or whether you abandon them doesn't matter for me.

The color settings on my monitor must be jacked up, 'cause those dudes look green and yellow to me.

I suspect that many of the more "unusual" smilies harken back to the Nutkinland days of this forum.  I don't particularly care one way or another.  I don't see myself personally using the smilies in question, but I wouldn't shed a tear if the least tasteful of them disappeared.  

I do, however, like the availability of a wide range of smilies...it has been an outlet for creative posting for me in the past.

IMO, emoticons should be obscene but not hard...

Sorry, must have been a bad mixture of inattention and bad lighting towards my laptop monitor. With a bit of screen angle adjustment and close attention to the color, it is indeed green.

I wish we could add a ROFLcopter smiley to the mix.

In all honesty, I don't even know what a Tardis IS.
