Another thing I really don't like about the Internet is tone indicators. They are helpful if you know what they are, but they're useless if you don't know every single one, it's like inventing your own secret language. Nobody else knows what it means until you tell them, and if they create their own words in the language or modify some, the language is now inconsistent across all the users, which is a pain to understand communication. Instead, you can just use normal words, like these, to explain the tone, in some cases you probably wouldn't even need a tone. I don't use tone indicators on the forums, and pretty much nobody does, because your post is meant to be constructive and helpful, it's usually going to be positive or negative based on the contents, not on your tone.
