Nope just annoying.
The best part of anonymous forums is not having any tone.
Oh my god man get a grip, everyone has a tone over writing, like how yours right now is rude.
Using emojis just communicates more informality plus whatever the emoji communicates. It’s not annoying to most people, and it shouldn’t be to you
I disagree. There is no tone on the internet, that is what makes forums work. Emojis suck. Period.
And I know this because you think my words have a tone. They do not. They are just a statement.
Edit: I want to add, part of my aversion is that people often just slap whatever the keyboard recommends to them into a sentence, or AI helped write it. They clutter communication, not help it at this point.
A long time ago, like in the 80’s people actually discussed what would indicate being friendly and they went with :-). But now its dogs, cats, silly clowns, hats, that stupid celebration and starry eyed smiley and so on. Just plain annoying to have to read.
