What happened to the Legacy category of Emojis ( thumbs up/down, drool, laughing hysterically, etc)

  Yeah what happened to those

If you don't want to scroll through all the options that come up when you click the emoji icon there is another way.  Type a colon and then the emotion you are looking for and it will give you options...   (:up)  (:drool)    Don't use the parenthesis.  They are just there so you can see how to do it.

Had to ditch the legacy emojis as preparation for the new version of the forum software.  I anticipate moving us to it sometime in the next month.

 Oh great! Another way to confuse this old guy. Not enough to take away my best communicative devices! lol

 Thanks KahrMan, I never knew that, it works well.

I always thought there were way too many emojis anyway. The legacy ones were about all I ever used. The rest just got in the way and were annoying. I'd like to see you dump all of those. BTW: need a legacy version of the roll eyes emoji. I like that one and would use it pretty regular. The other versions offered just didn't work for me.  :rolleyes

Like I said, I had to dump them to move forward.

Great, another update and more mass confusion, endless grumbling for at least a week.  .  Hey that semi-colon thing works.  LOL. 

JK on the upgrades, it's part of life.  They don't have any upgrades available for body parts that don't hurt for us old farts do they??? LOL

 

[TGO David]

I wish they did.  I'm starting to have to do more and more preventative maintenance on my parts.

It ain't the "golden years", it's the RUST years.

The new shrug just doesn’t cut it.  What do you think @hughd?  

“Modern” emojis are simply too bland and generic.  Not to mention impossible to see and interpret sometimes.  But it is what it is.

Why yes they do. Knees for instance.

Looks like it really has gone missing this time.
