Emoticon Issues

I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed, and perhaps a thread has already been created about this, but the emoticons are "cactus" as they say in the IT industry. Allow me to demonstrate:
smile =
big smile =
wink =
angry =
disapprove =
The above were copied from the "Rules and Regs" list of emoticons and, as can be seen, the code used to to form a traditional smiley : + ) no longer equals a smiley, but rather the "disapprove" emoticon (). I just thought that I'd bring this to the attention of the admin. We do not want any misunderstandings do we . Hmm, that's supposed to be a smiley by the way .

Well, the emoticons weren't like that yesterday. Now they are fine. A possible glitch methinks, but on TLR or my PC is the question .

Yeah, I have problems with them showing up when I don't want them. Like with ", should be " ) ,

There are a few other things like that. A post submission checkbox to disable the icons would be nice and a profile checkbox that changes the default state of the post submission checkbox would be good too. I never use them but thats probably because their showing up when unwanted is annoying.

If you added a Spitfire icon that would be cool, its a fireball with an evil grin face, kind of like "I wanna to torch something". Could be used for flamebate or just stupid posts in place of actually "flaming" them (a term I've never liked). Would also go well with my nickname.
