Today I encountered someone on the internet who misunderstood everything I wrote, and even told me to think of what tone I use. :iconpokerfacememeplz:
I mean come on, you can't use tones in a text, tones is something you use when you talk, not write.
The only tones that comes from a text is the ones you imagine it to have and it can literally be anything depending on your current mood.
I tried to explain it to her that even if someone wrote in a joking sense "I'm the best in the world" there would probably be someone out there finding that rude and perhaps even offensive.

I have a feeling she will misinterpret again..

Didn't say they didn't exist, just that it's not the same as when you talk. Know the difference. ;)

Yes, you did say that:
"you can't use tones in a text, tones is something you use when you talk, not write."

I don't like the font you're using.
It's so abrasive.

Not much I do about that unfortunately since dA doesn't allow you to choose :shrug:
