Smilies have been disabled due to the pirate filters somehow, but you can get around them. You need to put one smilie inside of each other, so :) would equal since the inner smilie would be deleted and the outside parts would come together. So *lol* would have to be *l*lol*ol*, since the inner *lol* would be deleted and the *l and ol* would merge to be *lol*. You can also do different smilies, so *lol* would also come to be *lol*. If you want me to put a code for some, just ask. This does not work for board titles, however. Once it reads the inner smilie, it will consider it a no-post. However, when replying, it will just remove the smilie so the other sides would merge.
