Do U Prefer Usage Of Emoticons For Good------Or Bad

First, how dare you insult me like that just because I use the "angry" emoticon once in a while! Second, I usually use the "DOH" emoticon to show that I was being silly or dumb or having a "DUH" moment, and sometimes I use it when other people are doing that, too. Third, I have never thought about the "wink" emoticon as dismissive or careless of your comments. I actually thought that it was more of a flirty emoticon like when you wink at someone that you like or to indicate an "inside joke".

Well my BB. Let me think on this. To all my other friends here i use them as it will be the exact emotion i feel. But for someone else who is the culprit just here, i like to irritate the hell out of him. As i know i can do to him just what i want. Don't you agree, my BB?? But, i will back of when someone want to be left alone. TATA.

Belated Fools day to you! Haha

well i love emoticons but sadly i need a rank of 200 for posting emoticons in my discussion! what ever does that mean!? i just feel so deprived of expressing myself the way i want! :( lol :)

Emoticons are understood without the need for language. I like to use them if they are available handy. I don't think people who are really having hatred or dislike use emoticons to show it. Instead, such emoticons when used with close friends, convey more friendly messages! In general, emoticons convey the tone in which the responses are given as in real life how we would behave.

I dont know how to place emoticons, I would like to but I dont know how. Help.thanks. Its good to express your feelings in just a mere icon. Happy lotting.

I use emoticons very often. I guess because it's on the internet and not conversation face to face I like using emoticons to show my expression And mylot has added quiet a few new emoticons lately so I'm hoping I get to use more of them. Most times I just use the smiley one but all of them look so cool. I think emoticons are a good way to express emotions online. ~animegirl

You've really got to be careful on what you assume an emoticon means, the "doh" emoticon may just mean the user is being silly and not that they want you to back off from their discussion. I use all sorts of emoticons, sometimes the silly one to convey a silly mood, I believe others do this as well. As for your question, I would rather use them for fun and so good.

Hi sunnycool. I usually will use my emotion icons to show friendliness or my expression towards a thought or a feeling. I hardly ever do it when I annoyed at a member here. My emotions are normally used when I have a good or bad feeling about a subject of an discussion.

i use the mylot code and the emoticons most of the time and when i wish to. but not to the point that i know i can hurt some one's feelings.

I love this facility on My Lot, I think it's a great idea. I generally only use the smiling face though and rarely use any of the others! I think that it just adds quality to your post and makes it more colourful! I like the laughter emoticon rather than constantly typing lol all the time, it's far easier to have a yellow laughing face! I remember when I first started on My Lot and how I was unable to use the emoticons as a result of not having made enough posts! When I finally graduated to the point where I was able to use them I was really happy! Well, I think they're a great idea all the same! Andrew

I just use them to show my emotions, that why they called it emoticons right? I never meant to annoying the person, just wanna show them what i felt. that's it, we can make friends if we know how each other feelings right. It gets me to know how my friends feelings too.

I love emoticons! They're cute, and I think that they make answers softer looking, as it always sounds less serious to read something with a funny face on it. Of course, there are angry icons, but if I was really angry I would never use an icon, as I wouldn't be on the mood for it. Icons are something that I like a lot

I'd like to ask, where can I get those emoticons? I'm interested in using them but don't know where to find them here...

hi sunnycool I do not look at the way I use emoticons that way.if the discussion is about s omething really bad I may use the devil, and the evil grin, and maybe the dunce cap as I am labeling the contents not the poster, theres a big difference and I would hope to heaven people do not think I am using emoticons to point at them,but at the topic, you should not take the emoticons to be directed at you as I am sure others here dco the same thing, if we are talking about wife batterers I am use the devil and the evil grin to show my feelings on the topic, as I never ever imagine anyone would feel I was using those agains the poster.Yes I use them to show my mood but my mood is not against the poster but the good topic or bad topic or in between topic.I will never express hatred towards anyone here. If I truly felt that way I would never respond as i am here to enjoy mylotting and have fun. lol lol lol.

I think the emocotins are an expression of feeling, but I don't really use them. Though depending on the person I've seen it both ways, but I take it all in stride. I don't pay attention to what it indicates and usually pay closer attention to the context around it to gain the meaning.

Well, i do use emoticons to show happiness, fun and my feel towards a situation. At critical discussions i never use it, coz i am bit concerned on how that emote will make them feel. So i always use the lol for my happiness and no icons for others sadness.
