And the negative ones (along with many other things) do help to single out who's an asshat™. Replying innappropriately with a "" or occasionally a "" is one of the things I find rudest on the forum, and immediately singles out the poster to be eternally remembered by me as rude and up themselves. Oh, and vniow's earlier was an obvious and amusing use, and therefore is ok in my book.
Basically, give em enough rope, etc.

Not if it's tears of happiness, like you see at weddings, or when parents see their newborn baby, or when athletes win the championship, or when Miss America is crowned, or when Apple customers get new Macs. All those emotional celebrations.
But it's true that our forum sad-smilie seems to be just plain sad.
Can I also request that this:
be added as a smiley? It's used so often that it might as well be included in the default forum smiley list.

I have to second this request!
