Can you please change the emojis back?

Could this not have been an auto update from the company they license this forum type from?

They are gross. They remind me of those creepy basketball head emoji things on the sweet sixteen basketball commercials.

Nope. Can’t be. They have the ability to add it back if they wanted to listen to the people.

I'm torn because these new ones are uglier but because they sink up with iPhone emojis I don't have to use the awkward menus

They can make the same old-style emojis sink up the same way. That’s not a problem. :)

"The new Emojis don't support my emotional expression."

Of course they don't because there is nothing emotional about an internet forum. It is a cold relationship less digital communication. I suggest everyone go outside and "touch grass" for a few minutes every day. What is the world coming too?

I have officially turned into my father. No emoji needed. Good day.

Also
Everything needs the two thumbs up and hug emoji, not just R2R

 

[Miami Reef]

Agreed. :)

The ones I posted above are the OG. That’s the one I want.

These are the new styles:



The artwork is cheap, cartoony, and doesn’t properly convey or express emotion.


Anyone else agree?

No.

Use them too much and they remove your ability to do so. So you probably shouldn't worry too much about it.

I don’t get it.

I touched grass for five hours today, I’m tired! Lol!

I don't think you actually know if this is true or not.

I’d give you an emoji but none properly express my emotions!

Thanks for the feedback!

We updated the emojis on R2R to align with the standard emoji set used across the web. This is the same style you'll find on most iOS and Android devices. This helps us stay consistent on the web version and the new R2R App as well.

Of course it’s true. We had it before. :)

Interesting. The emoji set is fine. It’s just the artwork of it that looks hideous. I’m having trouble understanding why we can’t use other artwork for both the IOS and web. I’m having trouble believing you can’t customize your own forum and app. lol.

It might not be a big deal — they’re just some stupid emojis. I just thought the other ones looked better. That’s just my opinion, and a few others agreed. Some were indifferent, but im not sure anyone preferred the new styles over the originals.

Whatever. It’s your forum.

There's more to it than...."it's your forum." I would rather give you what you want but it's not that simple now with how an app works with our API here. Trust me it was a pain in the old butt for me too! I would rather have left it but we had no other option. Thanks for understanding.
