Literature proves that written text can adequately represent emotions, sarcasm and everything spoken communication can, but it takes extra time to craft texts like this.
Traditionally, people wrote books and they wrote letters. In both cases, the writer had a lot of time to carefully choose his words and review his sentences in order to convey the right emotion and achieve the right tone.
Nowadays, we often use writing as a form of quick communication in text messages and chats. These don't leave the time to carefully consider how we can avoid misunderstandings of our tone, so emoticons are a very useful tool. That doesn't mean that we should start to use emoticons in books - books shine precisely because the author has expended some effort to convey emotions without resorting to drawings or emoticons.
The faster the communication, the more acceptable is the use of emoticons. In chats and SMS they are very acceptable and have prevented some big misunderstandings. In long e-mails, emoticons are less acceptable but may occasionally be used if you want to be absolutely sure that someone understands your intention correctly. In other situations, emoticons are not and will never be acceptable; given enough time, you should be able to come up with phrasings that will convey your tone without the need to resort to emoticons.
Explanation:
The smiley face is used to convey emotion, much in the same way we use facial expressions when we communicate with people face-to-face. Despite its simplicity, it helps others to correctly interpret your intent and meaning in online conversations. A smiley face may also be called a text smiley, smiley or emoticon.
