Flipa smilie removed

**Scooby** · 10-24-06, 9:28

You may be wondering where the flipa smilie (smilie shooting the finger) has gone.
It was removed after discussing whether it met our guidelines for content on the site (that is must all be family and work safe).

Some of you might find this questionable, but please keep in mind that many people have children and browse the site from work. It is important for us to maintain a community that allows all of our members to visit the site whenever they want. Anything less would hurt the community.

The flip smilie has been replaced with the thumbs down smilie. Please cease all use any images of "shooting the finger".

Thank you,
Sean (Scooby)

<<the remaining useless ones. i doubt id use them unless im taking the piss.

on a different note, 'sigh' is probably my favorite

I like the 'rolleyes' one myself. I'm glad to see the flippa gone, was never a fan of him/her/it.

I don't think you realized why I spelled flipa :flippa:? When you spell it the way it used to be, flipa, it is replaced by a thumbs down. :flipa:

^Joke in itself.

I noticed that the flipa smilie was mostly the starter of a lot of flame wars.

**Mx6kRaZy_03** · 10-25-06, 21:41

Good... glad to see that damn thing to go...
Now we just need to get rid of the rocket, flamer, and useless smileys..

Though, If I had to vote on just one, I'd go Useless all the way.
