I'm bored

Hate to tell you this, but mass-smilie posts are generally frowned on. They’re bandwidth-suckers.

Glad to see you’re so happy with being bored, though.

[samarm]

Well, if nothing else, he at least picked the right forum.

[IThinkNot]

I personally don’t “frown upon” mass-smileys (I love them) but I do believe you need help.

I figured as much. That’s why 0.1% of my posts to the SDMB are mass smiley posts.

I think that one smilie in the “R” should’ve been moved over one space.

NOT better. (I broke the r again) Here it is after much toil

Sorry. This is the last one (I promise)

[garius]

YOU CAN’T DO THAT! I’M TELLING TEACHER!

[Lobsang]

You know? If I look at my op - I can see “so there” within all those s!
I should have done a big “1000!” for my 1000th post - If I hadn’t wasted it.

I have an idea for my next project to annoy the hell out of everyone -

I am going to construct the alphabet and numbers 0-9. and then using copy and paste - write all my future posts with big smiley words!

[Lobsang]

Surely It doesn’t take up much bandwidth as it is just ‘sent’ as combinations of ‘)’ ‘(’ ‘:eek:’ etc…

and the picture for each different smiley only needs to be sent once.

[Lobsang]

‘:eek:’ etc

forgot that typing the smiley string would actually produce a smiley (doh)

[Lobsang]

And it has ears!

[Coldfire]

Oh, for fuck’s sake. If you’re bored, go help an old lady cross a street or something. There is such a thing as “too pointless”, amazingly enough.
