    smiles are used by people who have poor communication skills.

    Now, if someone had remarked that large picture files of say 250k are a bit unfair on dial-up users, as they take about a minute to download, I could understand the point

    And that's what I expected this would actually be about, before I read a trivial complaint about something that usually helps people read a tone of voice :p .


    ... and adds fun to the place :j :rotfl:

  • Really folks, search for a life out of MSE, yes that means you with excess of 1000 posts.

    Some of us who have a post count of over 1000, actually are here to help others, hence the number of posts. And yes I do have a life outside of MSE by the way :)

    Sometimes using smilies can be very helpful - particularly when you're making posts criticising some of this site's most prolific posters! ;)

    It can make the difference between coming across as a bit of a joker or a pompous miserable bloke. :rolleyes:
