    We have a good assortment of rep smileys beyond the simple agree and disagree. But I feel like there is a concerningly growing portion of Wordforge for which we need a rep smiley to address overt racism, race baiting, and various forms of dog whistles.

    To that end, is there a way to convert the :sarek: smiley into a rep smiley?

    It could be done easily. The question is whether or not the admins would approve, but yeah, technically speaking it's a 10 minute job.

    Can't argue your point logically? The race card is just one click away!

    That will definitely improve the discourse around here. :yes:

    Yes, thank you for explaining the entire premise of the rep system. Welcome to 2008.

    Just bumping this to remind the mods that we need this rep smiley to address the racists on our humble forums.

    I have been very patient with this request, and in the meantime racism and ethno-fascism has been growing not just in North America but globally and among certain board members. I feel like this rep smiley will put Wordforge on the map at addressing such issues and usher in a Web 4.20.

    Yeah pretty fucked up that the mods are OK with us not passively aggressively calling out bigots like UA and FF.

    meh... we can do that already in replies with the added bonus of watching them watch each other dig deeper as they try to gaslight out of it.
