Why are people posting emoticons in threads a lot now? And can anyone actually see what they are?

Post Body

So, I've noticed over the past two months, that I've been seeing a fuckload of emoticons posted in threads recently. No matter what the thread is, there is an emoticon. Thing is, for me, and about 90% of other people it seems, it's just a square. There's no emoticon that I (we) can see. Can anyone see them? Why are people posting them anyways?
