Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

This is a very stupid question sir. Everything that goes up must come down.

Re: Remove contest smileys from admins

This debate sounds like it's getting heated.

I'm changing my stance a bit. The admins and mods should be allowed to own the smileys, but they should limit their usage. Remember, the staff have the choice to use them or not. If it bothers so many people, they can simply use different smileys. But being that they are part of the EE team and are dedicated to making EE a good game, they deserve to own whatever they want.

Re: Remove contest smileys from admins

Considering that back then, when contests were a thing, the worlds you had to make to win 1st or 2nd actually had to be pretty good. Which means the people who won those smileys worked their **** off to get it.

It's a slap in the face when a new administration just "gives" themselves a contest reward that they not only did not earn, but more so did not even deserve. It's not the fact that you're not using it, it's the fact that simply putting the contest reward in your smiley "inventory" discredits the value of that smiley.

Re: Remove contest smileys from admins

It is NVD's game. And if NVD is okay with it, it's okay. Nothing is able to change that.

Remember this is just a game. Just a smiley. If contest smileys mean so freaking much to you, maybe a everybodyedits-break would be appropient.

While it's NVD's game, I do believe there is place for criticizing his decision. As I said before, it's a matter of principle. If they haven't won a contest why should they get a prize? Very simple, I suppose..

This is disrespectful towards those who legitimately won the smileys.

Re: Remove contest smileys from admins

I think NVD, Nou, and myself are the only ones with contest smileys... and nou only has the ones he earned.
I have said I wouldn't use them, and I haven't seen NVD use them at all.

We can bring this topic to a close now.  Instead of being at each others necks for the next 3 days, arguing over something that has already been settled.

No no no no no... Don't try to get away with this. The topic shall remain open as we want people to speak up.

I know you really wanna keep those smileys but you can't just silence us. It does not matter if you use the smileys or not, you should not even have them in your inventory.

Continue discussing.

Re: Remove contest smileys from admins

If you don't meet the conditions to have a smiley, you shouldn't have it...

I'm guessing thats the point. Most likely a, "if I can't have them, no one can" argument.

You, JaWapa, did nothing at that time to deserve them today.

Correct, he did nothing at "that time" to deserve them, but look at what he's done today though. We all could have let the game sit and rot after mrshoe left, but no. We've been putting our time and effort into keeping the game alive, and constantly working to improve it. That to me, sounds way more deserving of it than someone who simply built a level that was cool. The staff works on the game so it can stay alive. If it wasn't for us, the game would be back to years without updates. And because of that, we have a right to wear whatever smileys we like.

Also, why has nobody fussed about the superman smiley? That's one that nobody else can get. Why is a contest smiley any different? Sure people worked hard to win it, but I'm sure they put no where close to the amount of time into their level, as we have put into working on the game.

That being said - I honestly see no issue in the staff wearing the smileys if they want to.

Honestly though, there's no need to make a big deal out of something so small. That is why I am perfectly fine with only wearing the ones I won. Normal players should do the same by not caring so much ^^

What are you going to do if they keep those smileys? Leave? Riot? You can't impeach them, the only power you have is the power that they want to give you.
This isn't a democracy, they don't work for you, they work for NVD. They try to keep people happy because they want people to stay, but at this point I'm not sure they want you to stay.

This is the most outrageous thing I've read today. First off, the superman smiley is the official smiley for staff members and you can not compare it to contest smileys, that's plain dumb. You built no winning world and you deserve no prize.

Furthermore, name five things that you have personally done to contribute to the existence of this game, because all I've ever see you doing was ignoring my complaints about people who draw Nazi swastikas. You are useless sir, and no one would feel any change if you were to leave.

I really don't get what you are trying to accomplish here

Do you feel like some work of commanding force, that you are doing the right thing here?

he's not going to use it. Problem solved. If you're not happy with that solution, then that's your problem.

Yep.

Here's what we're gonna do:
1: Remove contest smilies from admins/mods who didn't earn them through the competition
2: Add superman smiley to all staff
3: Close this thread, the negativity dial is hitting the extreme


No u.

No, this wasn't because of you.  You're blind rage and disrespectful attitude gets you pretty well muted.
