are they allowed?
Wk, I hate saying no, but in this case, I'm afraid I am going to have to say it now--they're not currently allowed. The problem isn't the average user, but the user who takes things too far and you can't even find their post through all of the graphics and blinking toys. It's also a big drag on the server as well as those with slower connections. I hope it's not a deal breaker as you're here because you're a valued poster among us.
I'll also take the opportunity to suggest to the board that there CAN BE TOO MANY EMOTICONS! If there are as many emoticons as words, it's nearly too distracting to read. It's like interpreting hieroglyphs.
