  1. of course some of them are genuinely awarded, but talking about the rest of them, that have suddenly appeared in the last week or two - do they originate from:-

  2. If forum readers scrolled with the fingers on their left hand, the rating emoji banner is out of reach of the accidental touch. The banner does appear to have become more sensitive/less discriminating to the touch recently. I’ve not changed my hardware but is it too simple to blame the software ? Andy

  9. Earlier, I gave an unintentional emoji to a post, where I did not put my scrolling finger anywhere the emoji bar, deliberately kept the point of contact in the middle of a post before scrolling, it still happened

  17. Your answer is the only one I liked! History 'O' Level started in 1958 = Hurrah!

    Anyone who left school prior to 1958 will be about 79. Therefore everyone below that is not old.

  18. I'm old, and I never use emojis. Don't believe in them.
     
  19. excellent! the only time i have ever been happy to be a one in ten. i was technically a one in five. the one in ten was a uk average thing but best discussed in another thread
    i sent my first ever EMail yesterday rather than replying to them. i guess that makes me appear a lot older than i actually am.
     
  20. sound advice.
