CRESCENT MOON emoticon vote here.....

!!!!!

Sometimes, Nelliem!

I took a wander around the garden last night - it was so bright! The midnight almost full moon cast beautiful tree shadows around the place.

I think a Crescent Moon emoticon will make a wonderful companion to the sunshine one.

Still hopeful..........

At 4am crescent moon icon indicates to me the degree of my insomnia! Are there any other gransnetters awake at this ungodly hour?

Oh, too difficult then!! It takes more than a Like button to shut a Gran up!

NfkD GNHQ have already refused a "like" button on the grounds that we should be 'conversing' rather than just ticking a box.

Can we also have something along the lines of Facebook's 'like' to indicate agreement? A often doesn't fit. I can't think what though. A big tick perhaps?

All we get is promises, promises.....

It's probably with the disappearing threads!

Flag has gone so where's the crescent moon?GNHQ?

I've been on boards where people over-use them, to the point where they don't say anything, just send a string of emoticons. Just as irritating are the folks who post a message that contains nothing but a url, usually one that links to some news story -- I would at least like to know if it's a) something I have already read elsewhere, or b) about some pop celeb or footballer, in which I have no interest.

feetlebaum - Just wondering if it's the whole emoticon thing that's irritating you, or this specific one?
I think they do help to a certain extent, when facial expressions and verbal intonations are not possible when chatting on forums.

Anyway, no one has to use them - although they can be a very useful form of short-hand.

It's a friendly thing to do sometimes.

Isn't it possible to turn the wretched things off on this forum?

The only emotion they provoke here is irritation...

Oh crikey, I've just replied to your post from the first page Johanna. !

Nah, they wouldn't dare, johanna - we're much too rambunctious a set of gransnetters

Are we there yet???

Looking forward to more late night Threads so that I can use the new emoticon!

High five, Josie...such a trooper!
