Emoticons are usually facial expressions formed from ascii characters.
As these are not considered good role play, certain emoticons that are
used at the end of says and saytos are stripped and replaced with a word
equivalent. For example:
Say I am a very funny guy. :)
... displays to the room as:
<Your character's name> says with a smile 'I am a very funny guy'
