Guest Fabrice Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Hello everyone I was asking myself, the first time I wrote a message, what do all these smilies mean ? Maybe they have subjective significance ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using the faces allows you to let someone know what the intent behind the message. Some people use little jokes in their messages but these jokes can sometimes come across badly and an argument starts :angry: and both people end up confused as to why their initially friendly conversation turned into a riot. :???: These situations can be avoided by using this face: at the end of your joke to make it clear to others that your statement was a joke. Thus avoiding unnecessary conflict. Hope you enjoy your time with us livingwater29 :inlove: and have a nice day :thumb: All Praise The Ancient Of Days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't there some food-fight riot going on somewhere up above? Is THAT what started that? LOL Would someone tell me what the smiley with the blue light on his head is all about? It reminds me of Kmart's "blue light" specials and I have no idea when to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always delete it if it doesn't match your meaning. I use smilies a lot because I tease a lot and don't want anyone to get hurt feelings over a well-intended joke. And about that food fight issue: for the record, TIMOTHY started it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
