Not everyone puts an emoticon or "ha ha" at the end. Some people like humor to be a little more intellectual than that.

If that's the case then an emoticon would have been helpful because we all know it's difficult to discern attempted humor and sarcasm from a serious comment on forums. Most people use the emoticons to avoid any possible misinterpretations of their comments.
In the future I'll be sure to run someone's comment by you and hope you can help me ascertain the seriousness or sarcasm of said comment before I proceed to misinterpret it.
