The Adding And Removing Of Smileys

I just would like to know why some of the smileys were removed? some of the best smileys were removed recently: :laugh: :thumbsup: :redface: :tongue: ect.... I noticed this recently when looking at older content, I think if you remove some of the more popular smileys it takes something away from the older posts. smileys just say alot that words just cant :iono:
These new additions are great though :threadjacked: :dnftt: :attention_whore: :lol: :sm3: Thanks

They're not removed. Just click "more" and you'll see them.

I did click more and there is no :laugh: :thumbsup: :redface: :tongue: ???? what happened to these smiley's?? They were my fav's

I agree. They've replaced some great ones with ones that will hardly ever get used. :frown:
