I think my eyes just crossed, I'll learn about it on the fly....

[Scarface]

Blame loop, he asked for it.

[Scott]

Don't understand this credits/bank thing, what's the purpose of it?

[Scarface]

ummmm ... good question....

[Eldandoerino]

:vacant:

[Adam]

ummmm ... good question....

LMAO should of started with something simple like moods or something. :lol:

[30111987]

smilies in quick reply seem to have been lost in the upgrade...

[Scarface]

There!

Bloody happy now?

:)

[Loop]

No, they're underneath whereas previously they were to the side.

[Scarface]

......:wtf:

[Loop]

My logic is undeniable!

[Scarface]

:sarcastic

[Alexandros]

It does look incredibly messy. They should at least all be on one line.

That said, whilst it works for Quick Reply it's buggered up the layout for New Reply.

[Revolver-Ocelot]

:clap: smilies are good.

oh for ****s sake!

That's the best I can, you are welcome to try and do better.

Just don't **** anything up.

[Alexandros]

I never use Post Reply. Why, when you can Quick Reply?

[rebelbwa16]

Some people just like to complicate things.

[Scarface]

Or be a prat.

[Laughing Man]

It was mentioned earlier and dismissed, anyone worked out what the credits thing is about. I read the link and got about half way down the list of the fourty-two thousand things you can do to earn them, including naming all the states of America, naming ten Presidents of Botswana and being stupid enough to complain about Scars VB coding.

I got bored because I couldn't find what you can do with these credits, apart from collect them. :head:

[Scarface]

.... and the answer to the most asked question on GG in recent memory (what do credits do) is ..... *drum roll* .....

Absolutely nothing!

Basically it was a hack that was installed because I thought it did something else.

Something on the internet that servers no earthly purpose, that's new.;)

[Scott]

Is there not a way to use the credits to buy things from a vShop or whatever it's called, like slightly bigger avatars, coloured, bolded usernames on posts etc?

Sure I've saw that before (years ago mind you) on another vBulletin forum, just an idea if you wanna incorperate it into something, if it's even possible with this particular hack.

[EDIT: Saw the other topic on this, never mind.] :(
