Do you use emojis

[TheGlitch]

Do you?

 

[Seriel]

Sure, but not excessively so. They're useful for conveying emotion in messages, but that isn't always necessary

[SylverReZ]

Don't know why, but I use them often when speaking to friends and here.

 

[Veho]

I have never used an emoji in my life

 

[CoolMe]

Do i ever? Yes, when i feel my message needs a facial expression of sorts beside it to make it clear what my intent is, as that way of communication gets lost here when purely texting. Gotta make it known that you're just goofing around and not being serious like when joking around with Tempers.

What's an emoji?

[Beauterham]

Sometimes even at work

 

[linuxares]

No!

 

[SpookyBaker]

Shit I guess sometimes I do
There are some that I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole though like those cat emojis like so
But those emoji fusions are pretty funny (yes I use Android)

I am happy with emoticons where you make a face with text characters. I don't intentionally use emoji, but am not offended by them. What annoys me is characters being automatically converted into emoji so I can't type the sequence of characters for their intended purpose e.g. colon + open bracket being sad, or less-than-3 being a heart. Sometimes I did just mean less-than-3!

I highly prefer the dawn of the internet text ones, not to keen on those new fangled picture emotes.

When I was a kid, it was all about colon-hyphen-right parenthesis, and the nose-less variation soon followed. You could give the face glasses with 8, a laugh with D as the mouth, or add > to represent irrational anger. Good times.

To answer the question, I usually don't use them.

Emojis? No

Smileys? Of course

 

[Aergisgeist]

Sometimes, but mostly to express how I feel about what I'm saying, so it doesn't get misinterpreted

 

[JustABadger]

love it

 

[Veho]

Emojis? No

Smileys? Of course

That's a frowny.
