That is exactly what I used to think. I hated smilies. I thought they were tacky and like you said, kind of girlish. Like dotting your "i" with a little heart or something. I never used them.

But then I realized they serve a real purpose. Like they say that your actual words are only a small part of the message, and people get more from your tone and even your body language than the words themselves.

Smilies are a way to convey tone in an all type message. That serves a valuable and real purpose.

However I understand ... I can see how it might be hard for a hulking manly REAL MAN to use them. I still don't like to myself. Just remember it makes your communication weaker.

I'm guessing the miserable maggot thing is a joke given the context of the thread ... ha ha ha

If you are part of the in crowd, you can read people's remarks and you get to know each other so slams don't hurt.

For newbies, tough shi...

Right...you little furry teddy bear with a kitchen knife who needs to ask SG3 out...

Note the use of smilies to keep your tender feelings from being bruised...

That is too funny. The "in crowd" of an internet forum for a computer game. You're doing a good imitation of one of those guys who's self concept is wrapped up in post count and date registered.

Anyway at this point I'm sure you're just trying to get people mad because of the thread topic. A daring experiment who's time has come, or a waste of time? Only time will tell...

Thanks for the laugh though!

Nato, you friggen newbie!!

Bow before my post count! You out-of-it, little kvetcher.

Ok, you got it nato. Now I better chill before Mark PCR's me.

BTW, its not just a troll. I mean half of what I say. Hopefullythis helps people understand the forums more and enjoy them like I and Kitty Horse do...

Real men eat smilies, or was that real men use quiche ? Maybe smilies ear quiche? My mind's going in my old age.

[nato]

You guys are funny...

Ok, I'll bow out to the massive post count and the coveted 1969 "Founding Father" registered date ... any submarine guy has to be cool.

Smilies could be less cute. Sometimes they're like asking a guy to buy something bright pink with glitter on it ... enhhh

I'm not big on smilies. I have bad experiences with that tongue-sticking-out smilie, but that's not why I don't like them.

[devilmunchkin]

gP: is all of you this nasty? or just the part that comes to poly?

[notyoueither]

This is his nice side.
