Here's your chance to have the emojis removed.

Don't ask about seeing who posts them; we know that causes too much trouble.

If there is something you would like added or removed from the emoji list, comment on what and why.

I can explain it for you - but I can't understand it for you 😀

 

This is awesome. lol

I would trial it for a month, or to end of June then maybe try another option, no harm in trial and error to find the best way.

YouTube is only thumbs up, i would try that

I just voted, then looked at the results, which showed One voter.ME? The results however were the exact opposite of when I voted, unless I misread the choices.

I think people moaning about the emojis is hilarious.

I say we keep the emojis, but we should see which leftists who posts all the thumbs-down emojis.

How about none. If any how about just one neutral “?” or whatever and one positive. In either case, folks will be more apt to exercise a little more thought than a simple button push.

Add more emojis, with the faces of world leaders past and present.

Only positives and question mark. This leaves those who are cowardly and the few trolls to explain themselves, if they can, when they dislike a post. Question mark can have some not understanding, or thinking it's incoherent, which also leaves room for an explanation.

Get rid of the question mark, thumbs up, thumbs down, and broken heart emojis.

Question mark emoji: if someone's confused, post and say why. Also, question mark emoji is larger than other emojis.

Thumbs up emoji : redundant with +1 emoji

Thumbs down emoji : being used largely vindictively, and undermines sense of forum community; only breeds resentment and grudges. If the thumbs down emoji is continued, I would especially like to see it changed so that it doesn't detract from one's community reputation. It appears people are using the thumbs down emoji for the sole purpose of hurting a poster's community reputation, sometimes out of jealousy.

Broken heart emoji: If someone is truly moved by the sadness of a story, let them post about it - much more meaningful than an emoji. Aseannow is an almost all male community, not particularly prone to sentimentality. This emoji is unnecessary.

Emoji options should build forum engagement and sense of community.

Yeah post the top 5 most emoji nutters

Never used an emoji. As I said already though... the new dark blue for the thumbs down is fab.

Should add a few more.

The flip the bird and the Jerk. They would be very popular on this site. thumbsup

That would keep the traffic up on the site. and just under the boiling point.

If the emojis were removed traffic would go down.
