Please Enlighten me on Smiles

[Dagaron]

Can someone tell me what these smiles represent: (sorry for the ignorance in advance)


:ordom:

:ulchosen:

:inq:

:slvcrt:

:bc

:liondor

Are they guild ones that will confuse people if I use certain ones in my signature?

[Krauser]

I would say no, go nuts. No guild has the right to register any form of "Smiles".

[Defektunge]

Not really the right forum for it, I suppose (Off Topic (http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=11) or Site Related (http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=13) seem appropriate), but what Krauser said... go nuts.

[Jester262]

:inq: this is a warhammer 40k symbol for inquisiters

not sure about the others

[miber]

I'm guessing on some of these, but:

: ordom : - Ordo Malleus (Daemonhunters) (http://uk.games-workshop.com/daemonhunters/)
: ulchosen : - Ulric's Chosen (http://uk.games-workshop.com/empire/cult-of-ulric/1/)
: inq : - Inquisitor logo
: slvcrt : - Empire Cross(?)
: bc : - Skull Shield (probably Empire or Chaos?)
: liondor : - Bretonnian heraldic emblem (http://uk.games-workshop.com/bretonnia/emblazoning-shields/1/)

They're all guild smilies. They used to be exclusive, but I don't see why you wouldn't be allowed to use them now-a-days.

In the order you posted them, they are:

Ordo Mortis.
Ulric's Chosen.
The Inquisition.
The Silver Court.
Not too sure what :bc: is.
An old Brettonian guild. Name escapes me.
You'll also find:
:coa: Court of Asuryan.
:bwolves: The Black Wolves.
:skink: YNH's, if I recall correctly.
There are also smilies for -
The Shadowmancers,
The Rebels,
and Jake Swallow's Crew of Crazed Pirates, or whatever it was called. But I can't post those smilies because we're only allowed four per post.

Some of those guilds have disbanded, some are inactive, some are still going. And Krauser, originally these smilies were made by the guilds, for the guilds, so really they have all the right in the world to 'register' them.

[Archangel-WHA]

Corellion's got it right.

Ordo Mortis. :ordom:
Ulric's Chosen. :ulchosen:
The Inquisition. :inq:
The Silver Court. :slvcrt:
The Black Company.
Court of Asuryan.
The Black Wolves.
YNH's.
The Shadowmancers.
The 13 Blades.
Captain Jake's esteemed Crew.

All esteemed and ancient guilds, most that have been a part of these forums for years. Alas though... their meanings have been marred by being given to the public to use. Something that can't be helped, but is a little dissapointing for all of those venerable guilds.

I bring you information

[J_Heldenhammer]

Archy... you m, m... missed the Rebels. :rebel:

Worst smiley to date; but it's at least 3 years old with these forums :D We'll be back, mark my words.

[Corellion]

Don't take this the wrong way, but I've always wanted to ask - what exactly is your smiley? Is it a tree with a hat? Is it a spear with a fluffy green tassle on the end of it? What is it?

[Snorri]

Reminds me of the game Lemmings : ) :rebel:
Looks like a lil' hairy green dude with a sword and redshoes.

I love it :(

[J_Heldenhammer]

Corellion, I can't take that the wrong way. ^^ Ever since that smiley was made we had talks of making a new one, I don't think anyone knows quite what it is.

But it's been that way for years so we got accustomed to the unknowingness. However, just for you man, I can unvale that it was supposed to be: a clover with a dagger through it.

:)

If we ever reform I think we will make a new one.

[Corellion]

Haha. Well, there you have it folks, it's a clover with a dagger through it. Who would have guessed? Now all we need to do is figure out what the YNH of the YNHs stands for, and our lives will be complete.

[J_Heldenhammer]

Haha. Well, there you have it folks, it's a clover with a dagger through it. Who would have guessed? Now all we need to do is figure out what the YNH of the YNHs stands for, and our lives will be complete.

Don't think we should even go there!

[Khaela-Mensha-Khaine]

Can you create your own smiles? I know in some threads you can put different smiles in, although i could be wrong lol.

[Corellion]

No you can't.
