Rationing the Emoticons?

I quoted a post that included 2 emoticons, then used 3 emoticons in my post and got this message. Is this new?

We used to allow more with the old software but the new one reset it to 4. It is easy to up it, I will check with Ken to figure out how much more to allow. I know when you Quote that cause cause a problem if there are to many when you add them all up and can stop you from posting. I think 8-10 should be good, Ken knows better

Thanks Frank. 8 - 10 would be good

Yea, many of the old settings got lost. This will not affect how the site functions so I would be fine with say 10.

I changed the setting!

Note - only one video per post however!

(I can't get videos to post embeded still...)

Frank - you want to upgrade it or do you want me to do it?

I got it, You take care of the ones that require asprins
BTW since we are on the Smiley subject, I am suprised with the new software we did not get a bunch of new smileys.

I actually had to copy the old ones over. The software only comes with about a dozen. I may need to go into the old backups to make sure we dodn't looks any with the upgrade however.

OK wise guy you said do it, I went to do it and I felt important for a minute cause I knew where to find it and I go in and see it was at 10 so I raised you 2 now we are at 12 just so I can show you I knew how to change it and I also now made it so we have more than 30 to pick on the first page. Now you may not have to hit more to look for the cool ones.

BTW if posts start to get to distracting with to many the 12 will be cut down to 10 and then 8 untill we all feel it is good.

You use them? Or did you mean to say that others use them in reply to your Political posts?

I'd answer you, but I prefer to keep anything pertaining to politics where it belongs....In the political forum.
