Actually, when you look at it. Christmas celebrations are quite varied in different parts of Europe. Not everyone celebrates christmas around 24th-26th of december. But I think this is interesting enough to get a thread of its own...

Xmas smilies
Christmas season begins Dec. 1st
How about implementing this for next year:
Let the posters decide for themselves if they want Xmas smilies or not. Just keep the Xmas smilies stored in a subdir for smilies. Then on dec. 1st for all poster who has activated xmas smilies, the smilies are taken from xmas smilies subdir
Then you don't need to do this every year, and get tons of posts from people who hates xmas smilies (or doesn't like to see Xmas smilies before Dec. 24th )

Sounds like an awful lot of extra work IMO. And Locutus didn't want christmas smilies before Sinterklaas, which is 5th or 6th of december...I love being beaten by women - LorizaelComment

In the end each poster can have it's own set of smilies
Well... might not be that useful... but that's besides the point
And as an extra bonus it will take even longer before we upgrade to the newest version of the board software, as that adds one more thing to the list of features that needs to be transfered
Oh no, Xmas smilies are 4 days early for himOriginally posted by Zoid

I should start a thread, complaining about it being ONE FULL day late. Christmas season starts Dec. 1st here...

Noooo, it should be 12 days after Christmas!Originally posted by DanQ
That they had been around until mid-January in the past was not done consciously that I can recall... They could serve New Year's too, but this time around I'll remove them between Christmas and New Year's.

You have to admit though, off all the things you could debate about (e.g the future of 'PolyCast, mod appointments, staffing issues, splits of responsibilities, who has the best glasses etc) Christmas smileys probably isn't up there in terms of critical issues. Especially since you are both debating rather forcefully, and in public.Originally posted by DanQ
"Feuding"? We're debating.
But still, my gosh -- we're both site owners and we're having a disagreement of opinion... on Christmas smilies! Oh no! Run for the hills!
Just a thought (I don't want to be accused of severe/intense antagonism again).

Wouter raised the issue publicly and I responded to it in the same environment. I admit I didn't expect to be having as much if any back-and-forth on it period, but it's not a "critical issue" as you say so the fact that it's in public is itself a relative non-issue.Originally posted by DrSpike

Having it addressed publicly once raised publicly seemed to be the better approach.
