This is a pointless thread I am going to admit to this. You guys should be lucky that you have animated emoticons, cos back in the old days of LPF we had crappy emoticons that didn't move and all. Go and make a emoticon with a cookie and a sad panda, then get the rest of LPF to copy and paste it.
This isn't a scare tactic btw. A scare tactic would consist of me jumping out of the dark and scaring the noobs with a nuke.
