Is there anyway to block custom emoticons from one person...instead of all of my contacts, because I have a few contacts that have really annoying custom emoticons and I cant stand it!

[example: is supposed to say Hey whats up?]

and I have a few contacts that talk like that all the time but I dont want to disable custom emoticons from all my contacts.

Can anyone make a plugin that can do this?

hmmmm sounds like a great idea I get so anyoyed with people like that imagine the forums liek that it would be horrible you woundent understand anyones questions.....anyways off topic if i could code i would make it pronto oh well i need to learn how to code, great idea non-the-less

That's pretty annoying: Yes....... I agree with you..

I'm afraid you can only disable ALL emoticons (Extra -> Show emoticons) for that contact... The only bad point is (or not) that no emoticons work, not from you and not from the other one.. And the setting isn't permanent

I think MSN Messenger should force people to put something infront or behind (or both) of their custom emoticons.

For example, I always put all my emoticons in some sexy curvy brackets {} e.g. {dodgy} would make

This would stop people from sending those damn annoying emoticons all the time.

so is anyone interested in making one of these?

I agree with you... some emoticons are abused and very annoying...

Hmm, I don't know if this helps, but I have noticed you can sort of disable custom emoticons by turning them off, opening a chat window, then turning it back on again, the windows you open while they are disabled will have them disabled, while all new ones will have them enabled.  Could you have a script that enabled it while opening conversations to certain people only?

I always use a * before mine (eg. *slap)

If you did manage to stop emoticons from showing though, it would just show the characters used to send them such as =p which is ok if they use conventional naming patterns for emoticons, but I know people that use things such as !43 for one that says "hi"... Not very smart... You'd have to find a way to overcome people that speak moron

I was just looking into this script. I cant find a way yet, unless you like, replace all e's with é. But dt thinks that lame...
