The solution to all of your problems is the Jeremy Paxman smiley.

It's definitely better than any of your suggestions.

If theres one suggestion for the emotions its the removal of that rolleyes. Its used for nearly every condescending "Im better than you" crap attack seen so often amongst the various heroes on Boards. It serves no positive purpose, it is only a tool by which people can avoid real discussion.

*waits for someone to quote above and reply with rolleyes*

No. Just no. It was removed,then the amount of effort to get it back was ridiculous. No removal of rolleyes. We aren't going through that again.

:rolleyes: should be replaced with Jeremy Paxman.

We all know which one is clearly better.

(See, Jeremy's face clearly shows how smug my previous sentence was.)

So your justification of keeping it is that it would be hypothetically hard to get back.

...or were you being sarcastic....hmmm...
