Advanced Members SethTI Posted September 14, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted September 14, 2018 not a good idea- You can already remove faces from smilies, any sub can. For example: (noface) is the no face smilie, type (noface#square) to have no face on the (square) smilie. (noface#heart) to have no face on the (heart) smilie. (NOFACE#ALLHALLOWS) to have no face on the "allhallows" smilie. A smiliar smilie to "noface" also comes with the classic power, "cback", and works the exact same way. Easy bypass for this power, so I don't think it's a good idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Members Brabo Posted September 14, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted September 14, 2018 I believe it will produce interesting combos of smilies. I also do not see problems with the name, in fact the community of xat is multilingual. Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiki Translators Maxo Posted September 14, 2018 Wiki Translators Share Posted September 14, 2018 " nocara " " noface " ... or any name, for me i can't say if it's a good idea or not until see what's the goal and the difference between this smiley power and the prévious smiley powers, even if it's a smiley power like a lot of powers there is something different that should be done. when i say " difference " i don't mean the form of the power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members adam_ Posted September 15, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) BREAKING NEWS: xat.com rebrands to elxato.es Seriously, who thought randomly switching the language powers were named in was a good idea? As someone said above, breaking consistency is one of the most stupid things you can do, not that Chris cares whats happening to his website anyway. I don't use xat anymore, I have 300k sitting in my account, but I choose purposely not to use xat, and stuff like this is exactly why. I login to these forums once a week only to witness the gradual decline of the power quality. This power had some potential I guess, but how low has the bar been set at this stage? You can't get much worse than BAGHEAD. Naming the power in another language is a weak attempt to cover up how saturated all the smiley options are. Not only that, but it isolates the English speaking users who made this site what it is back in the day. More people know English than Spanish.

Well, now that you understand, are you still having a confused? I'm sure not. That's what happens to the majority of those who do not speak English until we see what power is about. At no time do we cause as much drama as it is now being caused by a power that you will use once a month.. (if you buy it or use it) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members Daniel Posted September 15, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Seems like the ones defending the name are the ones who speak Spanish, and seems like they may be a bit bias because they understand it fine, and have nothing to say except “there’s nothing wrong with it!!!!!” “You’re closed minded!!!!!” “Stop being jealous!!!” (mega LOL at the last one) which is just playing the victim with no real argument. Changing the name to English is not an attack on your language, culture or anything else. Multiple people have listed actual, real arguments against this and why it could be a problem, with myself even stating popular human computer interaction trends. See those posts. I'm sure it would be a completely different story if this power was (沒有面對) or (لاوجه). Of course these are extreme examples but it seems needed to get through to some people.

Bot Service Providers Nezhit Posted September 15, 2018 Bot Service Providers Share Posted September 15, 2018 Since post got cleared. We still think power name shouldn't change just because one or two people don't like it, Can't 10% be against 90% of xat users. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Members Bau Posted September 15, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted September 15, 2018 NOcara vs FaceOff Wtf let's be serious. . What is the name of power with English language? It's not a word, it's just a name for power, I do not understand why everything has to be in English. For example: It's an idea of Portuguese food or an animal or fruit, it's an idea and it's the name of that power, now let's say George calls me why should Gioni call me? There are small examples to be considered. I think in powers can any name added, a more appropriate name for that powers. Anyway, he did a good job, I think it's a successful power! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Members Ravey Posted September 15, 2018 Advanced Members Share Posted September 15, 2018 I'm really wondering, is this power only made so people can add eyeeye to a smilie?

There really should be a way to keep the mouth... is that coming or? Wouldn't it make more sense to have a smiley customization application similar to xavi instead that gives users choice between what eyes, mouths, noses etc they want? 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah @Lemona i think can this implemented @Admin might like this idea: costumes#mouse#nocara = all off costumes#mouse#nocara#on1 = eyes = On costumes#mouse#nocara#on2 = mouth = On costumes#mouse#nocara#on3 = nose = On costumes#mouse#nocara#on4 = ear = On 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
