What are posting icons?

You may associate an icon with each post you make. These icons are intended to identify the general mood or subject of the post; they range from a simple note to sadness to warning, and appear next to each topic in a forum listing and on each post. If you do not see icons, your forum administrator may not be allowing icons on this particular forum.
