Yeah I miss the old smilies as well, although I'm sure Saddo could create some new rep ones for us to develop nostalgia over.
As I said I have come to accept it, it's just different from the old system. Whereas the old system was a permenant rating system that you could build a reputation over only a long period of time, this new system allows anyone to jump right in and get a reputation quickly, or after an abscene to rebuild it quickly again.
Ultiimately I guess it's a matter of personal preference which one you prefer.
I liked the old way but then I am admittely quite a nerd and love stats and records of all kinds. Most people arn't as anal as I am and so really don't care and instead prefer building up a huge punch power to smite people with or barter reps with.
It's quite fun having a constantly changing table and I enjoy getting back to number 1 after slipping down again.
I guess most people don't even ever check the table but it provides amusement and interest to me and a few others so each to their own.
