.::... About IRC Smileys / Emotions ...::. |
| Another
important part of IRC is the "smiley" also known as an
"emoticon". Unlike MSN and certain other chat clients,
IRC Is a text base medium and mIRC supports text - therefore, the
smileys are made out of text and can be a little more cryptic than
IM (Instant Messaging) clients. The best idea if you don't understand
a smiley is to put your head to one side and try and work it out.
Smileys are made out of the keys on the keyboard, mostly done with
the grammar keys (i.e. ;, :, (, ), etc.). Some of them are very
simple, which are the ones you're most likely to come across, and
some are a little more elaborate and use 'ASCII' text to add eyebrows
and other features on to the face.

| As
you can see, there are a number of emoticons to be used to display
what you are feeling. It's good to use them as it can be hard to describe
exactly what you're trying to say (or rather HOW you say it) without
an emoticon or two. At the same time, it's also hard to interpret
what people are getting across to you if you don't understand what
these strange little things are at the end of their sentences. |
