Why exactly do people use these patronising scabs of yellow facial smallpox ? I’m not completely sure that I like them.
Because, like Everest, they’re there ? Maybe some believe that their posts cannot truly be understood without bluntly signalling the intent, but you have to admit that they are pretty lame. I really can’t see the point, except for illiterate seven year olds, and sir actor.
Am I being a tad sarcastic ? If only there was some way or hint I could use to help you tell………… I was reading some of Churchill’s great inspiring speeches, and thought, damn, if only he could have used emoticons – I’m sure the War would have been over a lot quicker. They are so very last century anyway, and isn’t plain text what all the cool people use? Not having them would of course give this place more of a Luddite feel, and might even add to its charm, if that could be possible.
I might use one if it could depict my usual state of mind. However, as yet no one has been able to depict anger, jealousy, tourettes, fake keyboard warrior-ness combined with a slight hint of inferiority complex on the one cute smiley face.
Luckily.

Because theres no intonation in the typed word not that anyone i here would take something the wrong way like heaven forbid
If nobody used them then all would look the same.
That would just be pants. :shock:

Pete, you’re saying that they improve sound quality ?
Intonation isnt sound quality now is it

These are just formulaic yellow blobs. The heart and basis of any post is in the text, which has to be read anyway.
My heart is with the yellow people man, I cant break the ties that easily.
They is my friends dude!

ok, I think I see what you mean. But for that we have words which can do the job better and in a million different ways too.
