Smilies discussion - Why do quotes count?

[TeriM]

Hi Marko,
Just curious why when we quote another message in our reply that those smilies count towards our small limit of twelve smilies? It just seems so unfair :sad: .



hint, hint

[rainbow]

I've been frustrated with the same thing .....especially with some of us smiley hogs.

[growler~GateKeeper]

Yeah , especially when multi-quoteing , one tends to collect quite a few from other posts, then I/we either end up having to post multiple replys or *gasp* deleteing smilies

I think we should be able to have 12 (or more ) of our own smilies in 1 post & not have the quoted ones counted

Yes, this is a good example.

Since Smiley Hog Growler used up nine smileys now I'm only allowed three.

good request.

sometimes we need A LOT of and A LOT of

and sometimes A LOT of good , just maybe not all in the same sentence. to get our message across.

so Marko could we ppppppplease have the limit increased and have the other smilies in a qoute or multi qoute not count towards ours??

[Diamondsmum]

I am not sure its possible.. it may be hard-coded into the forum's software.

We'll have to wait & see.

PS Marko hows you knuckles??

[marko]

This is something i can help with...I'm making a note about this for tomorrow.

thx
M

(Knuckles STILL bruised...but getting better - thx.)

Woohoo! We anxiously await your assistance .

[marko]

No setting to disallow the counting of quoted smilies as far as i can tell.

So I just increased the limit to 18 per post instead of 12...but the quoting would still count toward the total of 18.

Hope that helps

is there a way when you quote to not include the other posters smilies??

meaning when you quote the smilies just not appear..just the text??

[Stacer]

I think you would have to delete the other poster's smilies manually from your post.

[marko]

Stacer is correct. This can easily be done manually....

Thank you Marko 18 smilies per post, life doesn't get any better than this.

[marko]
