You know, the reason I post laughing smilies is because it lets people who said something amusing know that it was appreciated. To me this is something that encourages the kind of environment I'd like to be a part of: one that has a sense of humor. I started doing it on a stuffy, intellectual forum that I was a part of for many years before coming to MB because I felt people never acknowledged when others said something funny or clever and to me that seemed to stifle discussion. I don't begrudge you your verbose posts, why do you begrudge my simple appreciation of others' comments?

Yeah, if I can't make posts consisting entirely of emoticons, memes, or gifs, then I'm out.

As I wrote a long time ago, the short nonsense posts rule should either be enforced or it should go. If my suggestion to consistently and equally punish with infractions was adopted, and there was no rule against short posts, then such posts wouldn't break the rules and would not be punished.

You know, consistency between theory (rules) and practice (enforcement).

Edit :

The last comment about you deserving infractions for being minxy and cheerful with emoticons was just a joke. If you hypothetically ever earned infractions, it would probably be from rule breaking.

Just here to remind you guys that calling each other sexy constitutes as sexual harassment. The word 'cute' is OK I guess.

Tore, apologize to Janszoon for making him feel unsafe.
