Disappearing smiley

C'est un Espagnol Brestois. (Horacio will get it.)

Welcome back, Horacio!

Ou on peut dire aussi que je suis un Breton de Madrid...

Thanks, Gez!

LOL

Any chance of a laughing smiley? LOL and other abbreviations, I don't like.

shame to see the rolly eye one to go.

IMO, no; rather, it is rude in itself.

I am really having a hard time in understanding...

What about this or this , they look insulting!

 

[KnowTheToe]

How can an emotiocon be insulting. I used it to roll eyes at my own statements. Do I need professional help?

Really, it is about time we got the emoticons under control, those darned unrully little turds were getting on my nerves. At least we are not geting too PC her on the boards.

In fact that's what I though the roll-eye one used to mean... I used it after confessing a silly mistake I have done as a DM typically, definitely NOT as a response to someone else's comment! And I didn't even notice that so many posters used it that way...

About the other 2, if roll-eye is "rude" then those 2 must be "insulting" or something similar...

That's what the blush ( ) smiley is for.

= to roll your eyes at the statement just before or just after the emoticon.

it is a snide remark about how you feel the statement is not correct. it is rude. but not necessarily the only rude comment made in the thread.

many times it is used to respond to other rude comments, which don't contain smileys.

 

[Nifelhein]

Well, I always used it when I make a ironic statement or joke, that I don't necessarily mean...

Anyhow, I love roll eyes... he is so... ironic!

 

[Horacio]

I also find it ironic and useful. It can be rude, yes, but words can be rude too, and nobody has suggested to ban words from the forum
