- layer8 3y agoWe are talking about emoticons composed of and displayed as text characters, like :-) or =D or ^_^.
- toast0 3y agoAre we? The thread started out with: > This doesn't discuss Internet forum software which allowed including "emojis" in text, via small predefined GIF images. Which I claimed were not termed emoji at the time. Those were all called emoticons or smileys in that time frame. At least in my neck of the woods.
