this post is probably going to get me told of.. or flamed until i'm crispy brown..

can you please lose the add banner at the top of the forums??
I know it probably pays you to be there, but the flashing text is bloody anoying.. and i doubt anybody EVER clicks on the type of ads that say "you've won, click here for your prize."..

also, can we please get some decent smilies, the cog ones look like crap and they all look the same on my monitor..

New smiley's, yes. Removing banner, no.

It's what pays for this site. Besides, I can think of a few things more annoying than that banner. O.O post 1111

Yes to new smileys, or no smileys at all. The current ones are just terrible.

I don't mind the banner.

the current ones are uninspired and unoriginal... how do you expect me to identify with gears?!? Fucking GEARS!!!
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

They have incy-wincy wee faces on them Atoga...
Oh that's right, I'm using a 1600x1200, I don't think it's supposed to be viewable at this resolution.

Then again...
Killzig might have chosen the gears so that they wouldn't be overused...

Anyway, I hope for new smilies...

I think they're kind of cute. :)

Either keep them or do away with smiley's entirely but just don't bring back those horrible ugly yellow ones, I really hate them!

The answer to your first question is shaddup.

hey, how about custom Dilbert smilies? Now that would be something to be admired.

You know, I'd support the return of conventional smilies if only to get people to stop using ^_^ and the like.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.
