What really irks me is when you post something and all you get is the 4 or 5 frequent posters... who have nothing substantial to add and just for some reson want to make themselves look "cool" to their other frequent posters and will just add one of those emotion thingies and think.. woa that is cool.. no words.. no substance.. no text.. what is this?? laugh rolling on the floor laughing

I think it is just an easy way to show how you feel without saying words..isn't that the point of them...some people do get carried away though

maybe.. but if someone takes the time to post something that they feel is important to them.. why not make yourself clear and post something that is relevenat.. instead of something that is just put out there to make you look cool or funny... if you have nothing intelligent to offer the poster..refrain.. period.. JMO...sigh

Sometimes a little humor is needed to lighten the tension that happens so frequently around here.

Ouch!

Actually, it's a public forum..so trying to censor people is senseless.

The mods will take care of the posts that go too far.

Exactly, try telling posters to stay on topic and see how far you get.

some of us are going through some real hard times here.. and when we post something we really do not want to hear the jokes etc.. is that so hard a concept to grasp..... we really just want some honest feedback... We know you don't want to hear that we have just lost someone near and dear to us.. but this is life and it happens.. and we want words of encouragment or at least something positive... so.. if you have nothing of substance or encourgement to offer... refrain.. is that to much to ask? surely you have more class than that?sigh sigh

comfort works when someone is having a bad day. I will not post on a thread if the OP or the posters are upset.

I am postive if you said something truly that serious no one would make fun or judge for that they might use a sad face emotion but it would be with the best intention no malice behind it
