    Title says it all. Are there any plans to add Emojis to the forums (eg. :joy: :thinking:)? The emojis tab is empty right now.

    Although I am unaware if the server is planning to add emoji's for the forums are still under development and having its final touches - I would still like to see a basic list of emojis but not an excessive amount.

    Another thing servers have done is having "Positive Ratings" instead of just likes so there is a range of different good ratings someone can receive. I think it adds to the style of a community forum but that is only my opinion.

    Honestly, I'd rather just stick to one form of post reaction (likes). A lot cleaner and less cluttered. Plus, every other server using Xenforo does that.

    I know they have been doing a ton of updates and adding a ton of stuff to the website such as able to create a banner, upgrading avatar sizes, gif banners, ect. They will be adding the assign character feature pretty sure too as well. I would hope this gets added to that list of additions they could add here to be honest. I have a couple more ideas in mind but I am not sure if Xenforo can even do them.

    Edit: I really do hope they also add the character feature again because I liked our avatar skin on the left side of our posts to be honest. It looked nice.

    Yeah, I'd love to see emojis, character integration (apparently there is a plugin that allows for that?) and some other features that were on Enjin. While I do like the new forums, I think that these additions would be amazing and make the new forums feel more like home.

    hey! so the emoji tab/button is on all xeferno sites. i think servers can add emotes if they'd like to, but there isn't any preset emotes..

    okie. hoped this helped. As always, Have a star day

    Thanks :tearsofjoy: but do you think we could possibly get the Twitter ones? Just looks better in my opinion, more clean.

    Twitter Emoji Example

    and tearsofjoy might be a little long for an emoji name, could just be joy lol

    The Twitter emojis are good though, and they made all their emojis public:
    https://twemoji.twitter.com/content/twemoji-twitter/en.html
    Don't see a reason not to take advantage of this :smirk:

    Also emojis look a lot better as SVG files, so they don't lose their resolution when shrunk or enlarged.

Many people will have been able to express emotions like never before. Also, what is your discord?
