Weird little icons!!

What do the weird little icons mean that are in the column on the left of all the threads?? I've looked for something that tells what they mean but I see nothing. Maybe I'm not looking in the right places. Does anyone know??

I think you mean the topic icons. Most just mark the topic, and let you know if there are new posts, etc. Move your cursor over them to see, a little text should pop up to say something. Sometimes, they can be different, to signify a "sticky" topic, for instance, or a "heart" can signify a sweet/funny/anticipated topic, etc.

If you're talking about what I think you're talking about, there is a guide at the very bottom of the forum pages (not within the threads though) that explain them.

I do see that the blob is a "sticky" topic and the bell within a circle is another type. But there are little black dots on some of the circles with a bell in them - there is no explanation for that. Plus what does a white bell inside a circle mean with a black dot - most of the topics have a gold bell within a circle. Those things don't have a meaning shown at the bottom of the page. That's what I was asking about.
