Turning threads into replies of single emoticons is not big, nor is it clever. It ruins the board and makes it boooring.

Threads going off topic because two or three people start to have a conversation amongst themselves is also not big, nor is it clever. This also ruins the board and makes it booooooring.

Replying to this message with just a single emoticon is predictable and also boring.

People who do this must lead pretty boring lives.
