Starting Using Emoticons

I usually comment and post discussions using my regular emoticons (like :) and :D) but they don't look pretty here on myLot. I am used to post like that because on facebook, they convert to the beautiful yellow emoticons. And now, I have noticed that comments here on myLot look much more prettier when they have a emoticon. It won't be easy to change my habits but I will try to... and I will start right now! By the way, do you use a lot of emoticons here on myLot?

Hello! Nice post. Yes, you are right that when we work on FB and if we type :), it will automatically get converted in . Here on mylot it does not happen. I prefer using emoticons as much as I can. I use emoticons with the help of mylot Code. I feel using emoticons helps us communicate our thoughts in a better way. Earlier there used to be a restriction of using only three emoticons, now we could use more than three.

I use emoticons all the time, as Ithink they add character to the discussions, and other posts. I have been using them for quite some time and I use them as much as I can.

Yes Enough that I have most of them memorized and so I don't have to stop my 'typing-flow' to open the smiley-menu & choose one And I seem to remember that there are 'a few' secret smileys! Ask @GoAskAlice

@fufurinha I tried that but it came up with nothing but why discussions are removed no matter how many responses there are. I will not be memorizing.

Oh nice, I have to check that out. I don't memorize because I usually just use smiles in the end of my sentences

I like using the emotions but I haven't used them enough to know them by heart. I used to always put in :) but it doesn't work on here so emotions is the only thing to use.

It is good to express what we are feeling when we write in the internet.

I know this is a bit old of a discussion but I just saw it Lol I think conversations do look better with the little emoticons, but I am like you and having a hard time adjusting to it. I wish it would record the easy ones it sometimes takes me a little bit to go through them below o I forget about them all together by accident.

It is okay! There is no problem in commenting old discussions. When I have time I do post a smile once in a while
