It must be a strange world that you live in if you consider a good-natured joke said with a smile to be "annoying". Anyway, my comment missing seeing the smiley

It must be a strange world that you live in if you consider a good-natured joke said with a smile to be "annoying". Anyway, my comment missing seeing the smiley was in reference to untog's comment that Roger was starting a flamewar (when he clearly wasn't).
- Dylan16807 11y agoBringing up an often-seen furious bikeshedding debate is not a good thing to do. It can be an honest mistake, but it's still a mistake. Smiles convey intent, they don't have magic powers. They can't stop something from being annoying. So it's not that I'm against good-natured jokes with smiles, it's just that those attributes can't save all possible statements. Smiles don't strongly affect whether you effect a flamewar, either.
