Ok, I'll keep this brief, if someone doesn't understand, then ask:

Some few months ago, I suggested to TF that the :o would be replaced with the :blush: -smiley,
and :o -smiley would be eliminated. IIRC, Starlifter and few agreed with this one,
and TF said he'll change it. So, what's the...?
 
I say we keep them. Sometimes you make a mistake :o and sometimes you blush about things. :blush:

Well, maybe we should just have one. But I like :blush: better.
 
To me, both smilies denote slightly different expressions..... So I say we shld keep them both. Besides, the more the merrier. :)
 
The real problem is, :o.

What the dell is that? I always have wondered, what emotion it is
when you're mouth is round and you're red. Blowjob?

:lol:

Embarassment- red for being embarassed, and a round mouth for, er, well embarassment. Kind of like saying "oh".
 
I think each smiley meant embarassment of a slightly different nature. But then of course, it's all up to individual intepretation. ;) Or somewhat lack of...
 
We should keep both. You don't blush every time you feel embarassed, do you? :blush:

This one is certainly not on top of my priority list. :o

How on earth the round mouth does stand for embarrassment?

Well... My new suggestion is that we place :o for :o, as usual, but replace :blush: with :O,
for the smiley :blush: .

Of course not, but guys like me who have way too much time on their hands,
afford to be perfeonisticals (sp?). :D

Yes!

But don't forget Ack smiley.
 
Ah! These two are useful smileys TF! Well, conversionalistcial at least. (inspired by Juize :p) :goodjob:

That's why I bolded the sp, so SPELLING PLEASE? :p

*said in a whispered game-show host voice*

The word is "perfectionist"


On topic, I don't think there is an issue here. Having both is fine, and TF shouldn't worry about this because he has more important things to do.

Edited for topicality

In a similar manner to :o, when the heck would you ever use the smily? It has comedy value, I agree, but there is no emotion whatsoever being expressed here.
I disagree; it would be extremely useful to try to move a succession or maybe a PBEM game along. Whenever it appears to be dying (no one playing), the 'poking to if see if dead' smiley will be perfect for it! :D
