Title: Where have all the Smileys gone?
Post by: Willy The Londoner on December 08, 2012, 08:47:24 pm
Last week or so I notice when I make replies etc there are no more Smileys shown above the message to use - nor is there any other things like changing to italics or even SIZE. and we know how size matters?

Is it something I have done?

The newly elected/appointed leadership might have considered the smileys western propaganda and banned them on your side of the wall! ::) :o ;) ;D

Well obviously the redelivery to China must be taking longer as I do not have them. 

 I am now like a Chinese Car driver's without a horn in so much that I cannot work without them.

Until they are back then I am sort of speechless!

Or is this just a way of gagging me??????????????

Well well well. China cracked down on the VPN services last week. Every one I tried failed to connect. Vpn Express  handed out a tempory solution and a real one after I had already shutdown my computer and pulled the plug. So maybe the smileys were bening censored along with every other trival thing in China. But at the moment I just don't care. I am 9,000 miles away.

...there are no more Smileys...

I hate to break it to you, you old Honourable Schoolboy, but China's security arm had to Tinker & Tailor with the internet settings because they found out from John le Carre that you are one of them - Smiley's People - but I am sure that you will soldier on .

I have the full ExpressVPN back after last weeks problems.  But I fear suicide may creep in without the smiley faces.
