a brief history of modifications to clock crew smilies

this one comes to us unchanged from at least 2005 clockcrew.net. the pokemon pulling the cart is a peggey. the passengers are pineappleclock and probably quartermelonclock, both somewhat active administrators at the time. also orangeclock because he easy to draw

this is orangeclock in a hat from 2005 .net

this is ornageclock rockin out from 2005 .net; we used to use this one as a litmus test for losers

this is orangejbddlcknf feeling unwell from 2005 .net

here, am oregon cloak is feling nerd from 2005

I can't seem to find the thread, but this variation on

was created because billiardball10 once sent a pm to another member asking them to buy furry doujins for him because they wouldn't ship to his address or something. being immortalized in this way isn't exactly an honor

iirc englishclock is responsible for this one. he's the rare kind of clock that actually animated, so by popular demand this little loop was emoticonified

mspaintclock was honored with this emoticon when he complained about

not being clock themed. he doesn't like this one, either.

heinekenclock was honored with this emoticon for being an attention-whoring liar; years ago he publicly pretended to have suffered a severe injury that left him wheelchair-bound. he was the kind of person who'd do things like that.

rupeeclock was the original furry that anybody who knew what the clock crew attitude was about knew didn't belong in the clock crew.

i don't know why pumpkinclock got his own smiley. ask me my opinion of pumpkinclock and i will say he seemed like an alright guy

biologicalclock may soon be the first clock to hit retirement age. i hear he was in his 40s when he was involved with the clock crew prior to when i joined in 2005. especially by contrast, he was probably a lot more level-headed and mature than most of the people then hanging around here. seemed like a natural variation on


insomniaclock was maybe one of the earliest flamboyantly gay clock crew members, and this smiley dates from an era, and time in many of our collective lives, when gay jokes seemed funnier

at some point we found a post on an internet forum about scooters or motorcycles where a poster was saying he used to call himself plumclock. in his honor, the zoom smiley, which originally depicted orangeclock like everyhing else, was recolored to depict plumclock

another smiley created by a reactionary against unamended somethingawful smilies like

being added to our fair board; both versions kept as an ugly compromise
bonus beats:

we had a rofl waffle smiley, and then we realized masquattoclock looked like an iron waffle

we used to use this smiley when we still had to talk about software piracy

someone doesn't know how to export a damn .gif; sarezjay/ironclock is as mexican as i am asian


vanity emoticon


this has always been batteryclock don't know why but he was pretty over the clock crew by the time i got here

upon a return to the clock crew, tonymontanaclock continued to make "dodgerclock is fat" jokes; dodgerclock had not been seen in years and probably wasn't even that fat, but she was
a girl so you know

another vanity smiley but mochaclock/bbqbeefburgerman was the type of person to turn himself into a meme and then force it

elementsclock had a well deserved reputation for being emotionally unstable and attempting suicide on and off the forums; we keep it classy
the moral of the story is that becoming a forum smiley is often a combination of luck and being annoying. moral #2 is that

is the only smiley you really need.

here's orangeclock holding a "5"
