You are right Baz about the "facial expressions" part! But the smilies can paint a positive picture of your personality, as long as the comments which go with it match the smilies. But I have to disagree with the "tones in your words" part. I can certainly spot "tones" within the words and comments and sentances and paragraphs written. So can we all and that is why things can either go horribly wrong at times, or, very correct and friendly. It depends how well it is written. Tact helps!! The problem with jokes, they can backfire!! also, it depends who is telling them and also, the past history, etc, etc, etc... I mentioned this earlier in my other big post in this thread.

I disagree. I could tell you to "get lost" in a joke way but you could take it as an insult. You see what I mean?

Seems to me that you are both saying the same thing. May be I misunderstood.
