Is it time to increase the Emojis ?

[FIFA worldcup]

Since the time i am using bitcointalk, we have the same number of Emojis in the compose section.
If you look at other applications like Whatsapp / telegram etc, they offer so many more choices of Emojis but in here we have only these few Emojis .

This is simply just a really really minor thing that I don't think it matters. Especially knowing that some people like using an unnecessary amount of emoticons on their posts.

Also, Windows 10, OSX, and Linux has Emoji support in the first place. Why need to integrate them into Bitcointalk?

[BlackHatCoiner]

Actually, these aren't all of our emoticons. There are some hidden.

Code:

0:)

I wouldn't say so. What did it change compared to 2009? I think that if the admins decided to just change the emoticons, they'd be getting feedback to make other greater changes than just adding a bunch of faces.

That. Google chrome also allows you to enter any Unicode 6.0 emoji you want.

The forum is old and many members in this forum are not young. They don't really like emoticons, in particular if users abuse emoticons.

The forum is for exchange or discussion of ideas, not emotions. I agree that forum members can show emotions but please don't abuse.

This issue repeatedly ask for many times.

I don't think it's fair to compare such applications with a forum ^{[they belong to a different category]}.
^{- Check other forums and you'll see the difference isn't that much.}

It's not; I can't really see a need for adding more of those.

I use Android for this, and as commented in previous posts above that there are ways you can go about it on computers. If I can do this, I think it is an obvious reason that your suggestion is not necessary. Although, I do not against your suggestion. There were more, but I was tired to input all here.

Who needs emojis, when you can just embed images?

[hilariousetc]

This is one of the most important suggestions for the forum in the last 5 years. Without emojis how are we meant to communicate efficiently? How am I meant to adequately poo-poo someone's idea without a pile of poop emoji? 💩 How am I meant to display sheer shock and awe without the eye lips eye face 👁👄👁. How am I meant to simp or express my utter attraction for someone without multiple heart eyes emojis 😍😍😍. How would I ever initiate sex without the fingerbang emoji 👉👌. How would I ever know someone is horny and wants the D without the cipher of the eggplant emoji 🍆. It's just too important of a feature and theymos needs to get with the times ASAP otherwise I fear it's only a matter of time before we lose the ability to communicate.

See, it's just not the same when they don't show:

Ain't nobody got time for that. It already takes way to long too type actual words.

Wasn't the emoji keyboard on android open sourced a while ago? It might be possible to put it on a main computer or just search the alt codes for windows.

[UserU]

I'm pretty fine embedding emojis from external websites since they're supported here.

Plus, the basics pretty much suffice for an average conversation. We have the happy face, sad face, angry face, laugh face, roll eyes. Nothing more that could be used as expressions.

[isaac_clarke22]

It's a good suggestion, but meh. This is somehow a bit similar to having a "react" button suggested here in the forum as a sign of expression.
I prefer neutral comments with just a minimal expressions.

I was not aware that this works. Typing in mobile is quite annoying.

Tell me about it

But emojis on mobile are easier to input. If setup properly (I use Gboard), all you have to do is simply tap on hold on the Enter key and voila, the emoji board is there.

Have you tried using emoji on your computer and not working, or you just do not even bother to check it out.

I'm with the opinion that Emoji's are for messaging platforms, rather than a discussion based platform.

If users had the common courtesy of reducing them to tolerable sizes, then it wouldn't be too bad. I imagine a lot of users here already block images, and scripts on this forum.

Honestly I'm not interested in Emojis, I rarely use them.

Yes, I know everyone has different eyesight, sometimes in our eyes it's bad, but sometimes in other people's eyes it can be good.

If you want to use Emojis that are unique and maybe look good on your eyes, you can follow the advice of @Charles-Tim, you will find it all.

Nope-rino. I never used emoji in my computer and I thought it was like a mobile-only feature.
I am not that much into emojis. I got used to the simple text emojis like we all know back when Yahoo Messenger was still a thing.

~

Gotta agree though.
Still scrolling down just to find that emoji is still annoying sometimes.
I even recall one of my colleagues in a chat thinking that I wasn't interested to reply and got mad, only to find out that I was still struggling to find that one single emoji.

Lol, imagine if it's your SO instead and you have to explain the late reply all because of a single emoji 😂

Now I noticed, you're a fan of Dead Space?

[isaac_clarke22]

Yep. I hope you do not encounter that kind of annoyance as well.
Other people think that I am too serious or I got beef with them just because I reply without any emojis or any slangs like lol,lmao, etc, that's why I am forced sometimes to use emoji.
Yep fan of the franchise. I wish I could still change it, but it's one of those regrets that you cannot change.
Good thing that I didn't use my Reddit username when I register here. Might die due to cringy username.

Personally I feel that by using emojis, it lighten things up and makes conversations less serious just like this.

Oh! Why the change though? At least it's way better than 360NoScopeDoritos and the likes.

I only really find them effective when your being particularly sarcastic, since that's pretty hard to convey over the internet, and through text. This also goes for anything which your saying in jest, but could potentially be interpreted as serious. Maybe, I'm getting old, and I'm just not that fun to be around anymore, but I tend to only use them when texting, and rarely on discussion based platforms.
