Mods or EviLore I think its time to add a clown emote.

GAF what do you think should we have a clown emote? In these clowning times I think its necessary.

 

[Captain Zyrain]

Honk honk! (That mostly means yes)

 

[Hideous Snake]

Yes, definitely. We need one

Plenty of clowns have been wearing their costumes around here

 

[DESTROYA]

Make it a sad clown please it would be epic.

 

[Papa]

Can it be a crying Juicy Smolyea face with some string around its neck

 

[Papa]

EviLore pls

As each year passes I become more and more certain both that:

1. Unfinite universes do exist, and
2. That we are in one where most every stupid, ridiculous decision that could possibly be made, has been made.

A clown emote just lets us embrace that self awareness.

thomas wayne sucks!

 

[Nymphae]

Sounds like a purely negative reaction which I thought was frowned upon. The lol works well for clown world nonsense.

Please Avasarala give us the

Triggered is a positive reaction?

Triggered is a positive reaction?

I wouldn't call it a positive one, no. But whenever new emoji ideas are discussed, the staff have made it clear that they don't want to have emojis that would strictly be used for negative purposes. The triggered emoji often works well for WTF stories you find in the clown world thread. Not exactly negativity directed at specific users, but not all that positive either.

I could see a clown enoji being used simply to react to posts you think are suitably "clown world", it's a negative judgement on a users post. Just doesn't seem like we are really in need of a new way to laugh at a post.

We need a direct way to tell someone that he's a clown

I trust you have a keyboard.

 

[Hideous Snake]

I trust you have a keyboard.

I trust you can get jokes

She, them...

 

[Hideous Snake]

She, them...

Yes yes. They them she shim and all that

 

[Nymphae]

I appreciate that but in this case your trust was misplaced Apologies!

 

[nush]

I'd like an empathy emote, either a tear emoji or a hug emoji.

Giving a "like" to a "my Dog died" type topic feels wrong.

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

We need a COCK cap emoji.

I have started using the love/heart one more often, still kinda weird tho.

 

[Airola]

Yes.
More is always better.

 

[bronk]

Id love more emotes!

 

[LegendOfKage]

If you mean emote as in our smilies, we already have one. If you mean a clown reaction, then no. No negative reactions, please.
