This will be an entirely new version of vbulletin and my current styles, etc. will not work with it. It also will have a reaction instead of thanks/groans...

Bonuses in vbulletin 6:
1. If you have someone on ignore and they react to your post you will not get a notification about it.
2. If you have someone on ignore and they quote your post you will not get a notification about it.
3. It works with the required European cookie notices, etc.
4. It is more secure.
5. It works with the latest versions of php and mysql, increasing speed and reliability as well as security.

Downsides...

1. Some of my modifications will not work, like the spam filter that stops bots from registering... I'll have to figure out a new way to do that.
2. Thanks/Groans become emoticon reactions.... but at least I can modify the emoticons...
3. My awesome green version isn't available... I'll have to see if I can recreate it. The CSS for this version simply doesn't work with the latest version of vbulletin.
To start they'll be what vbulletin has, then we can start a "suggestion" thread for emoticons. From what I've seen I can swap, add, subtract, etc. so we'll figure it out as we go.

There are quite a few styles already in the default load of the new vbulletin... Hopefully there will be one that will fit with what you like. I'm going to try to recreate the green one though, their "green" one is white with green headers... I do not like a white background, it hurts my eyes and I love green. I'll use the dark mode until then.
 
A smile, a wink, a facepalm, and a middle finger are all I'll be required.

The current facepalm is good. It'd be nice have animated emoticons with an actual winking face. Something like this except only one finger?

All the "loser" emojis are 404 on the links. That's the one I want. :D
 
Cooi! Can we vote on what reaction emoticons? What about the current emoticons, will they still be there? The notifications/ignore thing sounds excellent. Can the font face be made a bit darker for us visually-annoyed folks?

We ask so much and give so little. :laugh:
I'm not sure how riske' Damo wants to be with emoticons. I know some of the ones already on the forum are pushing an "R" rating:
:1up::yay::3d:

Then there are these NSFW emoticons:
sheep.gif
< name this "goat & Arbie"
bj.gif
<name this "KKK initiation"

jagoff.gif
<reaction gif to most MAGAt posts and all of Sybil's and Perry's

ggw.gif
<this for those with excellent tits
eaty.gif
<for those who appreciate excellent tits

3some.gif
< for cliques and clubs

Speaking of which, it'd be nice to have the spoiler tag in the options menu like the quote feature.
 
Emoticons seemed to be frowned upon but I like em and use them, thought not as much as when I was at DP and put more effort into my content.

I am all for having a quality set.

I bet you can't tell which are my personal favorites. :laugh:
