Emoji's have been disabled system wide, folks seems to have issues with Emoji's populating and slowing things down, just for a test lets see how the system behaves without Emojis. 

Thank you

So far so good

I did like the older set a LOT better....the "new" set?  Meh...too much of a good thing...as in "Too many Cooks in one Kitchen" sort of thing.....took too long to find the right one, amongst a 1000 critter herd...

 

Old set never slowed me down..new set? POS.

This version of our community software is running at the end of it's lifespan, we are supposed to be getting a major "upgrade" moving a whole number up in versions from the 4.xx to 5.xx. So far having participated in the Beta version, it's looking really good. I hope many of these glitches become a thing of the past.

I agree 1,000% on that! (Insert thumbs up emoji here.)

Have we tested enough and reached a conclusion???? It would be nice to have the ones we had before the server switch.

Sorry, Larry, but it wouldn't let me click on "Love" and "Thanks" at the same time, so.... THANKS! But how do I access them? (Insert "Chin scratch"emoji here.)

Wait until you retire; you'll have far less time then😆

All old Member Favorite emojies have been restored.

To access the Member Favorites, click on Categories in the emoji box, then click on Member Favorites, once you start using them they'll populate the top of your emoji selector for easier access. 🙂 

This topic has been re opened for any questions.

How do I get the old emojis to reload or reappear in my selection menu? Tried refreshing. Are they located elsewhere? They used to always appear at the top of the selection menu.

 

Never mind, just saw your comment here...sorry
