Why is it that some people use inappropriate smileys in their posts which totally confuse the person reading them? :love::love:

It's really annoying as quite often the smiley contradicts the point the poster is trying to make and sends out mixed messages! :help::gag:


Personally I can't see :rant:why anyone would want to use smileys in the first place. If your language skills are so poor:rant: you can't convey:cool: your meaning through the words you use, you shouldn't be posting:suspect: anyway!
