smiley?

Wierd question I know.... but on my site it is considered a sarcastic smiley .. and you have to be careful on how you use it Anyone else find this? (I tend myself now to see it as a sarcastic smiley, think I Have been brainwashed into it)

I consider "rolleyes" to be a "sarcastic" smile myself.

For a sarcastic smile, I'd use

For the smiley face, it's just a smiley face. I generally interpret it as making a sentance 'soft'. Like...
"That's enough " is just a gental reminder to go back on topic, wheras:
"That's enough." is more what you put when you're closing a topic

I think its ok , its not sarcastic at all

I do tend to over-use smilies myself though (both on boards and on msn / aim etc) , most lines have one or more

is not sarcastic at all.

might be interpreted as sarcastic though.

or is sarcastic and yes, I have used them many many times. is just a smile, don't people on your board believe in smiling?

Yes lol but tend to use this

when I post on my board using , my members start PMing me asking what I'm up to,

Compare the current smiley (v2): with v1.3's:

Any of them look sarcastic? I find the current smiley a bit 'odd', but maybe I'm not used to looking at it, yet.

It must be my site lol we also think this one --------> is a bit a kinkyish (is that a word? ) since it altered

Since I've been beat on for being blunt in my replies, I tried to use the smiley to lighten things up. I've been told that my usage of it seems sarcasmic though So it seems that people see it differently everywhere. I'd like a "you're number 1" smiley for some uses though :-"

I reckon the new wink looks better than the old wink

old wink looked like he is taking a dump :S

To me, is more or less a generic greeting type smiley.


Of course, I'm spoiled by having so many terrific emoticons to choose from.



I useto say, "As if..." or "Yeah, right..."




For me, gentle would be
A more stern warning would be

JustCuz, I think you could hold a conversation with your smilies.
