We's bitchin' because emotes have become, for many of us, part of our vocabulary when we post on Facepunch.
We've re-appropriated them, attached our own meanings to them and as such they've become part of a code that only we can fully understand; our own language, almost, in a similar way to memes.
Wait, all the old awesome emotes have been taken down but you left shit like :yarr: that people don't even use.
I don't get it.

They were just emotes.
if he's still hosting the files but they no longer work as emotes then he's probably going to reinstate them.
otherwise he'd just have deleted them

[QUOTE=Lazore;30855020]I dont like the fact that garry doesnt respond.
If he does a major change, we should atleast know about it when it happends.[/QUOTE]
Last time he did that there was a user genocide, a good portion of the thread got banned for "backtalking" him about the changes. Which was actually pretty funny in retrospect as nobody complained shortly after.
