When I want to include an emoji, it takes about 20 seconds for the drop down to load. After selecting one it takes a similar amount of time.

 

Any suggestions as to why?

 

Thanks

I see the same issue, so it's not just you.

 

No idea why right now ????

 

If you know the short code for your emoji it works much faster.

 

For example

I'll try that, thank you.

 

May I ask though, that if I use your example, & use a wrist shaking, will I get the desired result, or just a ban?

 

They need to emulate LINE app. Best, fastest, most descriptive emoticons that I know of.

 

Great for messaging with persons of other languages (like Thai). Can almost do without words.

20 seconds- LUXURY!

Mine takes way longer than that.

Never used to- used to be almost instantaneous.

Could the reason be that they're downloaded from a third party?

I did report it a few weeks back, along with the page up thingy has gone.....

I am not experiencing any lag time...

Confirmed... it is gone from the default theme.

 

@Tech Doctor Can you please have a look at this?

We don't fall into that category do we bro? 

At least 30 seconds maybe much longer... rarely use  now because of delay

looks like a primary js library isnt loading will ask why.

The emoji are lazy little shites

me three.  15 seconds later....

 

actually the most thought provoking topic in a long time.

Can you please also have a look into why the Top of Page icon has also disappeared?

 

Not just the default theme... it was working OK in the mods theme up until about 15 mins ago.

I've found opening the emoji selection recently in Android often causes the page to freeze completely. This disables the back key and requires closing the browser, leaving no option but to open the forum again and retype the message from scratch.
