Pfft. That's ridiculous! Why don't they just remove it

That would probably make more sense haha but I still think it’s hilarious. I think there is apparently a way around it though. I think the ones from your phone keyboard would work but idk

 

[ShrekDawg]

Nope. That doesn’t work either.

I suppose it is funny, I've just lost a bit of humor over what happened yesterday. The emoji is in the list and the very most innocent thing you can do with it is show someone where it is, but some little girl is running around here with her mouse over the "report" button just waiting to get someone in trouble to get some attention. That is what I don't understand.

Honestly, how do you use that and not cause an issue? Like we're trying to "weed" out the problem child's with it. Ridiculous.

I'm sorry, Kelsey. My little rant has nothing to do with you. I hope you don't take it that way.

I understand what your saying Meg it can be tough and takes from why we are here

Nah it’s okay, I get it. That part was a little ridiculous but honestly we got a warning on another thread too (I didn’t use it but some others did) so I don’t think someone was specifically targeting someone here but I do think somebody had to have reported it at some point which is definitely a little bit absurd because on bother threads, everybody was joking, no one was using it seriously at all so I do find it a little bit weird that somebody apparently reported it.

But that said, I don’t really have a problem with it being taken off or whatever cause it probably shouldn’t be on but I guarantee there are probably other emojis that shouldn’t be on there either that they have left on...

They should probably just take it off completely but they probably had to add that conversion either way in case someone tries to use it from their phone but idk.

It’s probably not that funny I guess but I just thought it was kind of a cool feature being able to turn it like that but idk

Thanks, Penny.

It is funny, really. I'm glad you pointed it out. It would be really funny if someone was all bent out of shape and trying to use it literally and kept getting a smiley face when they posted it!

I don't think someone is specifically targeting someone on this thread, but I do think someone is specifically targeting any so called "wrong doers" and that person getting justification is really what's bothering me.

If there is no right way, than it shouldn't be on here. Joking/showing shouldn't be reported. ETA: or it shouldn't be handled as an issue.

That’s my main reason for thinking it’s funny! Like if someone was trying to use it seriously and how mad they would get getting that

Yeah, I’m starting to think so too cause there’s a lot of weird reports lately I feel like. Even when people are just joking.

And yeah I agree! And I had no problem with the joking either here or on the other one, I actually thought it was quite funny, but apparently some people don’t.

But I guess maybe they don’t want kids even seeing it? But if that’s the case, take it off the list completely. They do censor swears though so I guess it makes sense but I don’t get who has so much time on their hands that they are running around reporting everybody!

I'm pretty sure the new set up on the home page is going to create more work for the mods. And the new smilies
