Why are text tones important?
Text tones are important for people who struggle with reading the room especially over text messeging. You could be complimenting someone and they might see it as criticism which is why you put a text tone(/pos) at the end. Another example is how you could be upset or mad at someone and they don't know it

.
How do I use a textone?
To use a texttone just put a slash and the letter corresponding to the tone. Example: The next time mentions my height i'm going to commit an arson /nsrs

Make sure not to overuse text tones as it could be seen as mocking. Two textones for a sentence is plenty enough but you can always use more. Example: I'm about to make out with you /nsrs /j /pos

.

There are multiple text indicators I listed but the main ones you should focus on are
/j
/nsrs
/srs
/lh
/nm
