Some emojis work

This is worse than blocking them all. The forum puts words in people's mouths. And it's arbitrary and undiscoverable. Trash.

I don't understand how the vast majority went with the emoji options on the poll and yet we still don't have emoji

Most forums and social media on the internet allow emoji spam. GAF and Era were different because they actually encouraged people to write a couple of words, at least after the point when entire posts would be a line of laughing smilies.

Shockingly, people can write crap posts with or without emoji. They can spam GIFs currently for instance, or just write a low effort driveby post. This is like the 20th post in this thread bizarrely arguing that emoji will magically enable bad behaviour with no consequences

GAF supported emojis though

It didn't have an interface for them, but you could use them freely. ERA strips them out

i'm not gonna get greed and revive my campaign to implement likes yet, but we're a single modern feature away from truly living in the future

I think its harming legibility and it always felt like spam. Same with gifs, though these are at least entertaining to some level.
