Alright, I have two suggestions for the forums.

1. Fix this emote: :D
Can we PLEASE fix it to something else? It looks silly the way it is, a green face with rectangular teeth. I'd be fine with it just looking like :`D alone, or another emote that would replace it, that looks a bit better. But I'm sure most people have to agree that this: :D looks almost as bad good as: :cold:

2. Moving the IRC/TS Ban Appeals to possibly a subforum inside Rules and Information, or somewhere that isn't that visible. The majority of ACTUAL IRC/TS bans are from community members that more than know their way around the Blocktopia forums, and this goes without saying that most people on the IRC and very much so the TS server have been in the community long enough to find the section if moved. This format has been copied everywhere, and it seems like 1/5 of the appeals we get forum-wide are using this format and does not deserve a place so large, when the word Ban Appeal will catch the appealer's eye.

These are just 2 suggestions that I have noticed for a while. Thanks!

Yeah, I'd like for the TS and IRC to be its own forum, with announcements about it in there along with the ban appeals as a subforum, I mean, it's large enough (I guess) to have that kind of a spot.
No, it really isn't. We haven't had an announcement or news in regards to IRC / TS in ages, in fact, we had to make people more aware of it.

However, I'll look at changing the location, I've been considering it for a while. (Possibly just moving it a lot lower in the list.)

Frankly, that's racist against green smileys. :D looks exactly like I'd expect it to look. A huge goofy grin. As opposed to LOL which would look like this :laugh: or roflmao which looks like :roflmao:.

Notice most of our smileys have different skill colour. It's to promote acceptance of diversity. So you're just being racist against blue and green skins. :devilish::rolleyes: SO SHAME ON YOU! cautios:oops:

Rest me one thing to say.... You need to :cool: deal with it, have some :balanced: balance in life, and dont worry so much about :alien: faces that look a bit different from yours.

I have learned about the racism against the green smileys I have conveyed throughout my stubborn attitude in my posts. The smileys, at first, replied with a :furious: and a :banghead: but after a bit of diplomatic action, it became more of a :unsure: relationship. I formally apologized to them :running: and after a bit of a :oops:cautios discussion, they accepted me and gave me this: :showoff:

I've come to terms with the diversity of smileys, and you are much a part of this. I would like to thank you for all of this, and have a good day.

(also, I guess I can live with the :D smiley, I just thought it looked a bit off, that's all)
