I think TH has enough of emotes. Those other smilies are a rare use type of thing.

It takes quite alot actually to get new emoticons (they have to be good). Best thing for you to do is post the images of your suggestions and we will consider them.

Emoticons are used to have you express your opinions, right?

Each one of us has a unique way of expressing himself, so that's why there are a whole lot of smileys. However, there is no need that the site covers all smileys, when you can do things like this on your own:

o_O | -_- | 0_x | ^o^

etc.

15 Emoticons are enough, if you want your own emoticons then just upload some on imageshack or photobucket and use the [noparse]

Yup, what Ghan taught me to do :p

Though the XD and o_O That Goths High has could be an add on possibility, but are smilies are good as they are.

What?
No.
Why do we need them?
For the love of god, nuts and banghead drive me insane enough.
The helper needs not any more animation.
Not to talk about they are not even required (the ones you offered).

My humble, unofficial opinion.

Personally I find -_- o_O and anything similar extremely childish. Makes me sick when I see anyone using those.
Not only that we don't need more emotions, but we actually have too many, I definitely could live without banghead one.

Heh, seems like me and SFilip agree on this one. Indeed, no more smilies are needed, but if you insist on smilies, don't make them move.

Edit:

> Personally I find -_- o_O and anything similar extremely childish.

Same here.. except that I like to use o_O when I really am confused about some thing.

List of emoticons of TH that I really don't like:
:banghead: :nuts: :confused: :mad: (if <3 is used too much.. then it's counted in too)

No more smiling balls.

Agreed. I hate the Banghead, confused, mad, eek, and nuts one. Overused and Noobish/Chilidish In my opinion. Also, they are often spam, just leading to more Childism (Real word?) Eek could be ok on how its used, but only rarely.

I personally prefer the other way of expressionism...
The 'tone of expressions', which means words that reveal your emotions. Like:
um...
eh
haha
??
darnit!
pityful
ahem!
*cough cough*

Well, how do you say for example :)? Usually when making a post over the internet it is hard to know what you mean, becuase we read it, we can't hear the tone nor see the face. I think it is good to use smilies, but not animations, and not too many smilies.

Off-Topic: Meh, Insane! usually is not appreciated around here to give -Rep to someone when all he says is his opinion. Bah the immaturity.

It affected you? He's already in the red. And i totally agree, has happen to me twice before.

Anyways, back on topic, Words dont always work as emotions, like Rhieas said. They can be used for talking, but you do need to use smileys to express the face or emotion of it, Like
You are so great :rolleyes:

Is sarcastic while as

You are so great

Is actually saying you are great.

> darkchaoself

Exactly. However, I think the original topic was if we should add more smilies, I think no, for the reasons I stated above, however, I guess TH could always add another one or two to make people feel good. As long as they are not moving, you won't hear me complaining.

Off Topic: > It affected you?

He did it before he hit the red it seems, but I really couldn't care less, Reputation is nothing bar a green dot. Anyway I think an admin bumped it back up. ;)

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
