Forum Emoji Request Thread: By vaguely popular request.

I love this

 

a few more

edit: remembered that "why" was already posted a while ago

 

the buckets were ganked from minecraft and resized. the white fluid in one of the buckets came from an unknown source. (if you want me to do a troll fluid color, just tell me and/or send me the hex code and I'll play around w making this even more disturbing)

the knitting needles are original, and the yarn was half ganked from craftmoji, but their version was fucking terrible so I redid it. well, technically the needles also started as craftmoji pics, but again their version was fucking terrible so I just started over from scratch

 

Quick question, what is the context of this emoticon?



I think maybe im using it wrong?

 

The context is that she realized that she missed the obvious solution.

 

Whoops i have been using it wrong then. I thought it was like, being embarassed but in a good way when someone said something nice

 

I mean, I have seen it used that way too. It's a very catch-all embarrassment image.

 

can we getas an emote?

 

that's very flashy and if it gets put in posts without spoilers I fear it's going to be super disruptive. A few of the emotes are already fairly disruptive and annoying with how much they move/flash...

 

That's a migraine waiting to happen, right there.

 

Alright, fair.

 

Somebody already posted this one, but there is always

 

A still version or a more slowly flashing one might work.

 

Could we get an emoji like dis?

Spoiler: Big pic sorry

Obviously not this one cause copyright, but like i need an emoji that expresses my love and desire for things and i frequently think we have one here but then we dont... so yeah, make emoji get? Puhweeese?

 

and/or

 

So I made these for a tabletop game i'm running in discord so people could react to scenes and interactions in a non intrusive way to spare their anxiety and also signal to me and the other players their current comfort levels with a scene and its content. Yellow is a 'slow down, check in with me' card, other two are p explicit. Realized these could be super useful on the forum, especially in threads that move quickly, bc an image post will grab attention much faster than someone saying 'please slow down' or 'stop' would when there's tons of posts? And also in personal interactions and vent threads it might be handy too, if people are too low on spoons to say "this isn't helping" or "this is helping, thank you" or just "go away" without risking making their state worse, maybe these might help a bit? Feels kinda like a system that we should have had from the beginning.

ETA: The colour symbolism in particular helps a lot i think bc it'll cut down on miscommunication? traffic light colours are p recognizable and it might help prevent accidental boundary violations from someone who can't pick up on subtext in another person's post when that person is too nervous to outright state the boundary.

 

if someone's too nervous to state the boundary, won't they be too nervous to use one of the cards too since Outright Stating the Boundary sounds to me, like, the card's function?

 

Sometimes, maybe. In my own experience, I will type and retype a thing and then not send it, but I'm far more able to drop an image, hit send, and run for a bit until anxiety has calmed down.
