What emoji reactions should be added or removed?

[Hazel]

I'm making this thread off of https://www.speedsolving.com/threads/forum-upgrades-new-rules-and-more.96972, partially to avoid the clutter of that thread and partially because I do believe this is a discussion worth having. So, what emoji reactions do you think should be added, and what (if anything) should be removed?

If you weren't aware, the "meh", "rolling eyes", and "confused" emojis have been recently removed, and a simple heart reaction has been added, though none of this is necessarily permanent.

To start, I'm personally on-board with those three being removed, as I feel they were most often used as mild forms of passive aggression, rather than as a constructive discussion tool. I'm also a big fan of the new heart What do you all think?

(Note that this thread isn't necessarily endorsed by pjk, I just thought it would be a good idea!)

“?” to replace confused

Remove heart eyes if we alr have heart.

Somewhat unrelated, also make wow give reaction score.

 

[HellHeater]

An equivalent of :bruh:

Wow doesn't give RS?

Somewhat unrelated, also make wow give reaction score.

Currently, the Wow reaction is used in both positive and negative situations, making it more neutral than the other reactions. Makes sense that it doesn't currently give RS.

So, I'll suggest adding a Shocked reaction, mainly used for surprising but more negative/unfortunate situations. Then the Wow reaction could be used to express amazement (& could be modified to give RS).

The Heart reaction is great, so is the to replace Confused (although it's funny to think of the old one as being more of an "ayo" reaction, amirite?)

this is probably just a me thing but a reaction would be nice for minor corrections (i.e. to denote "actually...") though this might not be that helpful since it doesn't actually address an issue unless you make a post to go with it

THIS IS OUR CHANCE TO ADD A SKULL EMOJI REACTION

To be fair, I am getting nightmares from this

I dont see the idea of bringing back "Meh". We need to bring back "Confused", probably "Rolling eyes".

though none of this is necessarily permanent.

I think removing "Angry" is an ok idea, its rarely used.
PLEASE add any of these ""

I agree with the question mark replacing the confused emoji. It still implies confusion without bringing the negative vibes. And I think that replacing the angry face with something way less aggressive would be so much of a relief. I often worry that I am going to make someone mad and they hate me for it, using the angry face to express it as loudly as possible (however, I am known to be paranoid) so having a less aggressive face would take the edge off of whatever heated discussions there may be. Maybe the would be good?
I love the heart reaction by the way!

 

[Mr.Ducky]

Alright alright we should just make a poll and settle this, but of course we need an argument for the choices so basically i think we should add back the confused emoji or the ? Emoji and other fun emojis And if someone uses them really negatively and aganist the rules(if that is the reason why you removed them) we should just report him/her
Edit: so basically the emojis are neutral they would be used for either good or bad so they arent really a pure "negative" sign except in specific situations which is why i think my idea is good

I like them changes already made, but I think they should remove and DEFINITELY PLEASE ADD SKULL EMOJI .

 

[bldcuber314]

I dont think theres any point in having since we already have similar ones, I agree with having question mark

Skull? My brain *whimper* "Skull?" why? I love having both the heart and the love reaction! But question mark can Definately replace confused. It sends the same message without being aggressive about it

I'm still not entirely sure of the purpose of the new Heart reaction is, when Like and Heart Eyes pretty much already cover it, but it is nice to see something new and refreshing under posts.

this is probably just a me thing but a reaction would be nice for minor corrections (i.e. to denote "actually...") though this might not be that helpful since it doesn't actually address an issue unless you make a post to go with it

We meet again, Maniac.

 

[TheSpeedSkewber]

Remove heart eyes if we alr have heart.

Definitely don't remove heart eyes- heart eyes to me shows emphatic agreement, whereas heart is something completely different.

How about thumbs down instead of the angry reaction? It could be a less harsh way of expressing disagreement.

I'm all for having both heart and heart-eyes reactions, even though if redundant.

Thumbs down would be so goated its just saying no there's no problwm with it in games maybe if you spammed a thumbs down that'll be evil but what's the problem if I just put a thumsb down there aint no problem I'm just saying no instead of writing an essay to do so
Edit: tho replacing it with angey is kinda bad there's not really a problem with angry

We need some kind of Lesser annoyed reaction, but keep angry. Confused would be nice too. Keep all the ones we have now though.
