G'day Guys,

Welcome to the Speedo Forum.

If you are a guest, you can only see a small portion of the forum. Members like posting their speedo selfies so I don't like that to be 100% public. However, joining is free.

If you are a new member, you need to email me your username so I can manually activate your account. This is a pain (for you and me) but it is the only way I've been able to keep the spam bots from ruining the forum. My email address is: DaveEvans@SpeedoFetish.com

This forum is free and I don't allow any advertising (except my own sites), if you would like to donate please click the link above, all donations go towards the hosting and maintenance of the forum for everyone to enjoy.

What’s With The :insert word: On Posts?

Questions about buying speedos - ask them here. If you manufacture or sell speedos - feel free to post about them in this area.

What’s With The :insert word: On Posts?

Post by chicagoswim » Sat Jan 12, 2019 7:05 pm

Maybe I’m missing something by using TapaTalk? But I see stuff like :lol: or :mrgreen: and I don’t quite get it. Is that supposed to mean something or take the place of an emoji?

Lol means laughing out load
Ffs means for fuck sake
PMSL means pissing myself laughing.

You can use these and others or emojis. It’s down to preference.
Love speedos, running shorts, rugby shorts, Aussie rules footy shorts.

Haha, I know what LOL mean and the like. In Tapatalk, it doesn’t show all emojis when posted in the forum. See Aircat’s post and compare that with what I’m seeing and my initial post will make sense.

Might be to do with the emojis that apple use and tapatalk use aren’t compatible IOS and android devises mixing with each other. Weird I know.

That’s what I suspect. I see some emojis, but probably from other iPhone users. I didn’t use to see the :word: thing before. It started maybe a few months ago. Regardless, mystery solved!
