 * The super “massive” code of this plugin is, literally, :
 * `add_filter( 'option_use_smilies', '__return_false' );`
 * altough for newer PHP 5.3+ I would suggest
 * `add_filter('option_use_smilies',function(){ return false; });`
 * **I fear the times, when you will have to install separate plugin for every WordPress
   option…**

 * Yes, I mention it’s a single line of code. 🙂 Some people don’t want to edit 
   their functions.php file though, so it’s a quick install. Good point on the code
   update however. I’ll leave myself a reminder to do that. Thanks!

 * [@geek-goddess](https://wordpress.org/support/users/geek-goddess/) Don’t get 
   me wrong, **YOU** did **AWESOME** work, I hate when people try to do simple things
   with frameworks… (note that I did gave you 5 stars 🙂 )
 * I am just unhappy with the fact that somebody kept function in core but removed
   the “off switch”, even though it is something that alters user’s content.

 * Oh, I totally agree! Didn’t think your comment was anything negative towards 
   me at all. I appreciated the suggestion of updating that single line of code.
   And I agree – I was super unhappy with the fact they left that in core but removed
   the “off” switch! Unhappy enough that I wrote a plugin. 🙂
