The Rise and Fall of Weapon Smilies

[Thunderfall]

Its not just weapon smilleys that are not getting used as much its all smillies
I mean how many times have any of you guys used these cool smillies

3.

4.

I think the problem is that people are now trying to remember the code's for the smillies!
We can't be bothered to look for those complicated ones when we already have a few comited to memory.
