emotional about emoticons

i can't stand it anymore!!
could we please have these faces cleared up - or at least come to some consensus on them!!!

i don't know what they mean - do you?

ok i know some of them:

🙂 that's a smile (i use that)
😀 that's a laugh (i use that too)
😉 and that's a wink (i even use that)

but the rest seem so open to interpretation that all i can say is 🙄

what on the internet is 😏 or 😞

it makes me want to :'(

take this seriously and don't 😛

isn't this 😕 just so meaningful?

does it make you 😠 too?

and just who does 😵 think he is?

are you bored or asleep here? 😴

is this 😳 a blush or what?

enlighten me 😲 please!

tackling this could be the single most important step in advancing rhp communications!

in friendship,
prad

As I think has been suggested in the Help & Site Ideas forum, would it be possible to include these in the in game messages and in the out of game personal messages?

Russ, could we have a 'rolls eyes' smiley? I mean rolling eyes in disappointment, not in perplexity. Also a laughing smiley would be nice.

Doesn't rolling eyes connote a sarcastic attitude, not a disappointed one?

the 😛 is if i do something or say something stupid, and so's the 😉. the 😕 is just if i'm confused. i don't reallt use the others 😛 (see-they're creeping in now...for some reason, i just type them everywhere..i was doing ym computing project write up, and stuck thataone in...!)

Perhaps - I don't really know how to put it in words. That's why I want a smiley for it! <rolls eyes> 😉

There is no reason why we couldn’t do this - a fairly minor update.

I'll try to bundle it in next time I do a release.
