Emoticons

[Grog50]

Do emoticons piss anyone else off as much as they me? God I hate them AND of course most people who use them use like 5 per sentence. Don't mind my bitching lol.
btw inb4 spamming me with emoticons.

Theyre alright for showing expressions, like say you say something that might come off mean, just put a smiley and they know you weren't trying to be mean.

but yes, I hate people who spam them.

Sometimes emoticons convey emotion just better than words can. Also, if emoticons are tacked on to the end of a sentence, you can usually tell if someone is being sarcastic or not.

Bad example:
I fucking hate you, you cunt.
This is flaming and therefor not right.

Correct example:
I fucking hate you, you cunt
This is OK to use, since the smiley wores the flame-effect off.

I think the second one might now sound like:
haha, I hate you.
I think ithe example is a bit extreme ;P
But I agree that without I smiley it would have been a lot worse.

The second one looks more like sarcasm or a joke than an actual insult.

Ill admit a lot of his posts annoy me haha
See I use haha. Although, now that i think about it, spamming haha is annoying too. So pretty much spamming anything in a sentence is annoying.

Now now, how can you possibly hate emotes? ^^

They are just so joyful and nice.

And you can never have enough smilies.

Personally I find the use of them quite liberating. ^_^

I never feel quite alone as long as I have my smilie friends to back me up out of a tight spot.

Know what I'm saying? ~_^

Anywhoo, I found this thread to be quite enjoyable.

And I also like your avatar, very stylish.

Toodles for now!

I'm off to play with my kittens. :3
