A question about smiley threads

I seem to remember from a number of months ago a ban on threads made mostly of smileys due to the strains they put on the server. Is that ban still in effect, because if it is, there's an example of one in General right now. I'm not looking to get anyone in trouble--it's possible that these people are newer and don't know about it, but that thread can't be helping the server lag.

And of course, if the ban was lifted, then by all means ignore this thread.

Posting a large amount of smiles is spam, with or without the ban, so I'm thinking it's illegal.
(Wow...that kinda rhymed. :o )

I've said it once, and I'll say it again.
"Smilie spam is bad, mmmmkay?"
Now, if you would be so kind as to provide a link to the offender......
Well if there really is a ban in effect, mabye it should be posted someplace. I can see why such a ban would be needed, but you do need to let people know about it. I'm around a month old (a little more) and have never heard of this "ban." How about making a sticky? I mean, it's only fair to let new nations know about it.
