Dunno where exactly to put this but I figured it needed to be in with TFS stuff- and site support seemed a good enough place for me.

I've seen quite a few posts from people who say they don't have certain smilies, thinking maybe they don't have enough points or something.

There is a link to get to those smilies! Under the smilies you usually see when making a post, off to the right side of the text box, there is a link that says, "More >>". Click it and every TFS smiley will be shown. This includes and many more.

Actually, no there isn't a "more" on mine. There is a custom smilies, but I have to add them in as it is empty.

You need a certain number of points to have access to the smileys I think.

Ahhh...that actually makes sense. I wonder what the required point count is.

That I do not know. May be something like 30,000 but that's just me plucking a number out of the air I'm sure a mod will know.

I was talking to Gsnap a while back and she thought the custom smileys was only available after a certain point count but she may have been thinking of the extra ones.

Its either 10 or 20k. I think its 20k, but I really dont remember for certain.

you can always type in the codes for them at any time.

Thanks for the link. I do have the first few on the side, and I did know you could type them in, but I didn't know the codes to type in, so it is nice to have access to that info. I have less than 5000 points so I guess it will be a while before I get there.

I've seen people even with 20K points or more saying they don't have access to them though! I can't recall who it was but I remembered it today and thought I'd post this. It was just irking me. I suppose I should have cleared that up in my post, sorry...

And, why is it that the people even without the link don't just use the code? I don't understand, surely they would have noticed the code for some of these at one point. Not for all of them of course but is pretty simple.


I guess that's what bothers me more than anything, just that some of these smilies are really simple and you can almost guess the code.

well, I tried to guess shrug for the dunno one, but I was wrong. Where does a person "notice" the code? We see smilies, not codes. I suppose I could have figured out hug, but don't really use that one much.

I almost always type mine out, because I'm old school. When I came here there was not a "more" link that was a recent addition. I hardly ever use it. Though I don't generally use a lot of smilies.

I did learn a lot of the codes by quoting people that used them, so I could see what they were.

The code shows up in quotes. I suppose if you don't quote people often, or have never quoted posts with those smilies, then you wouldn't notice after all.
