Ok, I have two simple requests:

1. Let people turn off smilies for a post.
2. Add <label> tags to the check box captions so that we can click on the caption to check/uncheck a checkbox.

Simple :)

Because they suck. : )

I like the text better, and sometimes you want to post something without them.

There are other good reasons to remove smilies from a post, for example if you're trying to post some code etc. <<< (just an example, no need to be a smartass and tell me about the code tag!)

More to the point, it would be good to disable mDBCode completely for a post, rather than just smilies... :)

Exactly. Like, click the ON link next to your post and it turns it off, as simple as that :D It sounds like a good enough idea :)

Smilies aren't parsed in the code tags, so you're set with that

:D D::D: :D :D :D ;) :P ;( :deagle: :garg: 

Who posts code without the code tag anyways? You gotta have your proper spacing :P

I eat my cereal without milk when there is no milk :D

Anyway, I think it's a good idea to have a choice to turn on and off coding :)

Smilies have made links break before on many forums, thats why you might want to turn them off... but if I am correct moddb's smilies are smart enough to prevent code breaking anyway because it makes sure the string isn't included ina word or something...

Just as a note, I don't want to remove smilies, I just don't want them to be parsed as images... I like the text better :)

Perhaps this should be a profile option instead?

Cereal without milk? WTF? What else do you use? Water? Coke? O_o
