That's why emotes exist, though-so people can screw around without using actual words.

Look at the fish emote, or the robot, or the evil face, or the Nyan Cat. Why describe how elated you are when you can just use a smiley face? Why talk about your depression when you can just frown? Why use ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) when you could just be bold and use words to create innuendo in chat? (Please don't.)

A 24-hour lack of emotes would be amusing, and perhaps even a sigh of relief. I do ask that this be enacted when I'm not on my New York trip, though... why do you care

theyre different ways of expressing emotions I see no emotion in a dancing yellow man, thank you very much. lots of people do tho In which case I think the emote should be removed. After all, last I saw, it was mainly used for the purpose of spamming dozens of yellow dancing men at a time. Is "spamming" considered an emotion these days?

Like I said, I support a 24-hour experiment. I see no problem with emotes such as basic faces. if there was spam then they action should be taken to those who spammed. people just as easily can spam with text. and not everyone that uses emotes spams.

also what would you try to prove from it? Well, different users have different reasons. I'd just love to chat without seeing so many images in chat, just for a day.
