I think Hubpages need to allow/implement EMOTICONS ....What do you think?
Emoticons is very prevalent in the world we live in today, especially amongst social engagements .There are thousands of emoticon apps so we can express our facial and mood expressions.
There are a limited amount of emoticons that can be used in the forums, but I don't think they should be enabled for use in Hubs... it would make them look cheap.
Not in d hub itself fat fred but in the comments for the hub like lol , rotflol etc sometimes we comment at a funny hub and an emoticon would be ideal
I would like the emoticons if they were cute and SIMPLE. I think lots of the ones used on websites look awful and I purposely use symbols that don't turn into emoticons.
Hi nornsmercy thanks for your comment well yeah cute ones will be nice. I use symbols to turn into emoticons but they don't sad face lol
I agree, Lady. They would be used in the comments sections in hubs. I think it's a good idea, with certain limitations. :-)
Sure right Genna i cud do with some emoticons in my comments
Sure, why not? It is hard sometimes to put into words your feelings, that would help, but I wouldn't hold my breath. lol :-)
Lol jackie yep the little faces in our comments will help elaborate on our expressions
I would rather not see emoticons on HubPages. Even in the comment section they would take away from the discussion of the hubs.
Ok Eric that is your view no one said there won't be discussion because it will be dumb just to put this in the comment box . I am speaking of adding and emoticon along with your comment to lay more emphasis on your mood towards what you read.
The problem with emoticons is that they can be easily abused.
And again, since there are so many of them, that means a very long list of characters and symbols to be crammed.
Unless hubpages will incorporate just a few of them.
Which in that case, defeats the purpose of expressing how you feel.

<link snipped>While enjoying my tribute to ImKarn23, I've been dealing with a somewhat awkward sitituation. Someone who calls herself Diva43, left a hateful and horrible comment on my Hub about Imkarn23. This is a purely personal issue but after the many comments left afterwards, I decided to...

I am not looking to name names here as this happens quite a lot on Hubpages, but can someone please clarify whether or not it is against the rules for a Hubber to come to your hub, leave a comment and then include a link to one of their own hubs as a part of that comment. I know it says under each...

In which cases would you flag/report someone to Hubpages, or even ask that they be banned?For example, if someone slandered your name, would you flag them? Here is a comment taken from a religious Q&A comment on Hubpages: "Compulsive lying with an inclination towards spreading...

I have an odd situation. When someone comments on one of my Hubs that's on a niche site or on discover.hubpages.com, I can't create a reply comment. It logs me out of the site, and when I try to log into the niche or discover site it sends me back to the old hubpages.com. There's some sort of bug....
