getting rid of "message icons"
 

How can I remove the option to even select "message icons" when someone posts?

I noticed [H]ard forum disabled them.. how can I?

Remove them from the templates...

what specificly do I remove?

Go to your admin CP.

Scroll down to the bottom of the left bar. Under "templates", click "Search".

Search for "$posticons".

Go through each template and simply delete every instance of $posticons you can find. There should be one instance of $posticons for each of the templates returned.

All done.

OR you can do it the easy way. :D Run this query to turn off icons for all forums:
