Dating Kristoff? He's got a reindeer, a good sense of self... He's got it all.

/g i just realized how helpful this actually is for me! i thought it was cool when i first came across it, but then my friend used one and i can confidently say if they hadn't i would have misinterpreted the message. thanks so much for these!! :)

"g" This is such a wonderful piece Anne, thank you so much for writing this! I personally have never heard of tone indicators before, so this is such an insightful and educational piece for me! I have learnt loads from this and look forward to involving tone indicators in comments now! (:

Huh, I have never heard of these! /g I might start using these. hj /hsrs (is that allowed?) Very informative! You did great! /g
Also, your Message... Ahahahahahaha! That part about Kristof made me LOL /g.
Replying: Yeah, that song was amazing and I’m glad you still got to enter it! I was wondering [since your song was amazing /g] if you have any advice for song-writing? I asked Rohan’s Defender because she’s been writing some songs, but I think I’ll ask some more people. I started a chorus for a song called “To the Choirmaster” (like the end of a prayer meant for singing). Would you mind reading it?
“To the Choirmaster, with clapping hands and singing hearts.
To the Choirmaster, with stomping feet and swaying hips.
To the Choirmaster, let’s all sing this so joyously.”
Yeah, I practically have nothing. Your song was really good so I was wondering if you have a process or something for writing it? Thanks so much!

re: Thank you very much for your praise! I actually ended up liking it more than I thought when I started writing it. Since I based it on your work, would you mind if I decided to turn it in to contests or anything? Also very informational piece! This is a good solution to that awkwardness that happens over texting and stuff... /g

JACOB HOUSTON has been copying and pasting comments
I read his comment on a piece that said something like "this is incredible, I am in awe" and then launched into about checking out a song he wrote
the crappy piece I wrote bout my computer shutting down?
same comment was there
it was not an astonishing piece at all.
and his comments do seem very repetitive

yes, this is very important! it can be helpful, even if you are really good at reading tone through the internet, and it helps clear up any possible misunderstandings! /g

Re: just keep prioritizing your mental health. i don't know if you've seen any of the new stuff, but it's just really not necessary to take a look at. i don't have that kind of self control, so i definitely admire you on this one.

This was actually pretty awesome to see these used in context. Nice.
And sending smiles your way :D :D :D with the fiasco from last night continuing

I can see why it's difficult. When I was first online, I often had to reference from other's comments. People have a different set of humor from me. /g

re: I get what you mean, but its not defeat, more like leaving the pitch alone, lol

I didn't know of these--but I know several people that this would help--so thank you so much! I'll try to use them as much as I can!

re: thank you so much! yes, in that piece there were a few lines that could've been unclear, so i thought, why not try the tone indicators? very useful.
doodleninja
ah i've heard of these before, but never actually knew what some of them were. thx for compiling a few into this piece! :)

i've not heard of these, but what a superb and helpful idea! as this circulates more, i have a feeling we'll be seeing more tone indicators. because no one likes awkward confusion. thanks for writing this, anne!
