Sometimes those emoticons qare a darn nuisance because it takes so long to go through the ist to find the one you're trying to figure out the meaning of. Posts with just an emoticon can be VERY hard to decipher.
I'm curious. Why do people just use an emoticon to answer a post or make a comment? is it that hard to use a few words too?
Cheers from Peter
I wont answer for other people, but I was reading every post and responding to most for a number of years. Partially because I am an admin and partially because I think everyone should have some response to their posts. Unfortunately I am constantly in pain despite meds and I'm down in the dumps more than up. A result of that is I have almost completely stopped posting and then feel guilty and try to post more again. For someone who answers so many posts I find I sound the same over and over again and so started just putting an emoticon down. Now I am just trying to stay current and so will likely use an emoticon because its simple.
As to the meanings, they are fairly self explanatory but if you hover your mouse over it will give the code which will explain the emoticon.
I know I am one of the worst offenders for just posting a pic with no content so if antone out there finds this annoying let me know and I'll stop plain and simple.James
Hi James.
It was NOT my intent to offend anyone. I was simply curious about the emoticons, their meanings and their use.
I think this is an instance when I should have just kept quiet. Very sorry if I've offended anyone.
Cheers
