Everybody knows and loves the  emote. Thing is, what is it, exactly? I've seen people use it when hitting on other Maplers, or in response to various things said to them. Is there a single unifying definition of  ?

I think one of the definitions is "rolling eyes". :f6:
Edit: Also sarcasm.

It's sarcastic but 99% of maplers don't know how to use the emotes properly so you see in all cases.

That's the thing, it's not Amherst material. I quit 8 months ago or so, but I played since Dec 06, and some of my friends played for a comparative amount, they don't know exactly what it is.
If it's rolling eyes, then why do people use it when hitting on other people? Yeah, I don't get what's going on.

I see it as an arrogant "Yeah, I just whooped your ass" or "Yeah, my damage is teh owns" face.

I think it's also used as an "attitude" face, also unserious (but that goes with sarcasm).

The lips go somewhat similar to that of the 'smoochies' face. I guess it's the poor mans smoochies lol.

Its for when you pwn or someone and want to rub it your face. (Also in the case of a scroll dropping in HHG1 and you pick it up, f3)
Other than that, sarcasm.

I see it used mostly as sarcasm and poor mans kiss. But since we are in a global community here as well as a variety of ages...13-50+ the ability to detect and understand sarcasm as such is widely varried. More so in text than emoticons but still its there.
I say  w/e and leave it at that!
:f6: is on my F1 key cause i use it all the time...

It works better if you have high jump.
If you do it in Nautilus Port, you'll be able to do some physics-defying feats. LF> water in every map!

I use it for =P (usually when I'm joking around), and occasionally I use it as "I'm the best".

I see it as being prideful or thinking(or speaking) about something awesome.

I also see it as a response to this, like saying "Really now...?"
