Car: Dodge Viper (I wish!) Rep Power: 237    |  Thread Icons I'm tempted to remove the thread/post icons. Seeing  next to half the threads is kinda annoying.  Any objections? Hmm.

Car: 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190E (W201) Rep Power: 67   | I'm all for. They look like crap and don't have any added value. At least i ignore them.

Car: (as soon as I get my license) 2001 Focus 1.8D Rep Power: 33 | Down with them. They're especially annoying in the hands of a thread whore/troll like Flynn was right before his ban.

Car: IS250 RWD Rep Power: 93 | Sometimes they can be useful such as if you need quick replies or something, but it generally just gets abused by people who come to rant and talk about Top Gear when it's on air. Get rid of them if you want. |

Car: 2-wheel Haro F1 Rep Power: 21 | No objections... But what about when the thread needs urgent attention? Any remedy to that if the icons are removed?

Car: 2008 Pair of Sneakers Rep Power: 11 | I don't think I'd ever have a reason to use them. Maybe make them and admin/mod only feature so you can denote things like readme threads and important announcements? |

Car: Dodge Viper (I wish!) Rep Power: 237 | And turns out I can make them permissions based, so admins/mods can still use them.
