That sir is a horrible assumption to make. I was making fun of it because it is supposed to be spelled emote not emot. Hence the reason spell check says emot is wrong and emote is right.

Use xda app and you'll have back all the good ol' smileys(for now)

Ah, but 'emote' is a word in the English language meaning "to display exaggerated emotion as in acting behave theatrically" - it does not refer to emoticons.
That (and the fact that it was still too damn early in the morning here) is why I made the assumption

So you are telling me you pronounce the word emoticon as:
ee mot icon and not ee moat icon?
Also I realize that emote is a seperate word however emote is still the proper spelling of the shorthand for emoticon.

You're quite right (almost);-
I pronounce the first part as 'emote'
I pronounce the second part as 'i-con' (the 'i' as in tin, not as in my)
Until this thread I had never actually seen anybody try to abbreviate the word 'Emoticon' to anything and I can't actually find a precedent either way at the moment.
Doesn't take away from the OP - they are bloody awful :crying:

I've always seen it as "emots" in it's abbreviated form even though it is pronounced "emotes". I think the differentiation is because "emote" is a verb. LOL
But it could just be laziness. And at least it is in haxor speak as "3m075".
Anyways, I made a compromise and corrected the title. It shall be "emōts"

I'm afraid we only have ourselves to blame. These adds are "intelligent" ads. The sort of add that appears is based on the text you are viewing on screen at the time. So for example, I notice that you were viewing a post that several times mentions the word gay and lesbian - and that is why the lesbian add appeared. If you have the word Nokia appearing on the page or Muslim for example then the adds that appear may well be related to Nokia phones or Muslims in some way.

PS - Nothing out and out pornographic or extreme will appear.
In all probability then this kind of add will only appear in the off topic section. Assuming folk post in the correct forum.

Not to hate, but what is it doing here?

XDA is known for being the place for anyone who has enough brains to customize and tweak the Android or WP phone in order to make the full use of the phone, and not only use stock stuff and wait for updates.
Even when you press Ctrl+D ( bookmark the site ) it says Android and Windows.
So it is odd for me to see a forum for Icra...*clear throat*phone on XDA, and even being the first device forum on the list.
It does take you to another site and not stay on the XDA forum site as the other device forums, but I can't wonder as to what this supposedly phone... device... thing ( you get the point ), has to do of being shown on XDA's forums?

after all, it says XDA in fine print under the.. devices name on the site, AND it is shown on XDA.
Shouldn't it than be on the bottom of the list instead of the top? or have a a link from the portal?
I'm just being petty about it. plus I'm bored of the internet.
And I have a co-worker here with me who has an Iphone, so I'm trying to make him mad for wasting money of such a thing.
For example, when he was not looking, I switched his SIM card to a blank T mobile SIM (we don't have that company here at all, son't ask where I got the SIM ). he didn't understand what is going on becasue when he checked for a SIM he saw that there is one installed. Iphone users... not bright.

ehm, no. get your facts straight. Higgs boson has nothing to do with God. It is known like that just because until recently we couldnt observe it, but we knew its existence( until yesterday we doubted that too) and in a report someone gave it that name( "Gods particle"), but he was being humoristic ( like the above can be applied to God too) . It has NOTHING to do with God. and yes, physicists have terrible sense of humor...
no some do have a good sense of humor..that Lederman author of "The God Particle: If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question?" infact wanted it to be Goddamn Particle...not sure how true that is.
But seriously...Richard Feynman is right up that alley.
One of the greatest minds.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!"

lolol. No your wrong, this particle IS god, it died for your sins and it loves you and will banish you to hell if you break its commandments. Also it wants your money. /sarcasm
Mod edit: I'll just remove the rant that would offend anyone with certain religious beliefs. Carry on now.
This may be the biggest scientific discovery of our lifetimes. I will be following this story for the months and most likely years and even decades to come. To anybody that isn't an idiot or a reality tv junky this should be extremely interesting. More than anything else on this entire site. Dont get me wrong I dont claim to to be a physicist and fully understand it, although I do have a firm grasp on the concepts, but I'm bright enough to recognize this is a huge leap forward in understanding our universe and how it was formed and how it will continue to grow.
My edit: might as well remove it, you know what they say.. The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off.

I would have to disagree with the your statement "we couldnt observe it, but we knew its existence", nobody knows of the existence of any deity. I didn't see anyone saying this has anything to do with god.

oIc, I didn't get to read it before it was edited. Still my opinion is relative, but it is just that: an opinion. It is MY opinion though, I didn't go somewhere to socialize every weekend and take those people's opinions as my own because I cant come up with mine.

You're a poor grammar nazi if that is the only error you found, as much as I typed I am sure there are plenty more. I will give you a second chance though, try one more again. Also, in your signature.. That should read recovery, not reovery.

I agree u, i've been excited ever since i first came to know about CERN but i've not been following the developments lately.
Now that a major discovery has been made..i'll start listening again.
Luks like it has not been officially confirmed yet.
Also, in your signature.. That should read recovery, not reovery.

Yes, your signature, I see you found it and corrected it. Funny how you stopped reading my post because of a grammatical error yet you have had them in ALL of your posts. Ironic, huh? It's really not a big deal though so dont feel bad, typos and grammatical errors happen. If you cant even read something with one in it though that is a problem you might want to look into. Its not like I was typing in ebonics and using numbers for letters with multiple abbreviations and acronyms.

lol, no mind. He and I are 1 for 1 on grammar correcting, if we got together on this thing we could probably grammar check all of Off-topic before the end of the day. What do you say m1l4droid, are you down for the challenge? Wait let me guess..
"My Off-topic. Where?"
