Use of the smiley has gotten out of hand, people are whippin it out in cases where they "think" it is a repost...and in some cases they "think" its a repost since they might have already seen the material posted elsewhere on the internet and the content hasn't even been posted on beyond yet.

If you are using the smiley, then POST THE LINK TO THE ORIGINAL THREAD ON BEYOND!! A quick search on your behalf will help in dealing with reposts and will allow for moderators to deal with it appropriately. If it is NOT already on BEYOND.CA then it is NOT a repost.

Also a reminder to people posting videos/pictures/anything else, PLEASE use the search function prior to posting anything...if it COULD be a repost then by all means just do a quick search, it only takes 10secs of your time.

Thank you!
