Please not. Think about the translations. I can't translate a few thousand emoji codes, and we can't force everyone to know the then needed english names for emotions and such. We must keep with a graphical overview of offered smileys. Smileys which can be clicked to copy them into the text field. For those who don't need to know the necessary codes of these emoticons.

There can be a way to show them as a list or something? I didn't know that, sorry. I thought I have to begin to write the name of the emoji and then a list appears...

What will you do with old posts that already have smileys? Also aren't emoji kind of annoying in that every device shows a different image?

One of the issues with using emoji is that you get different displays depending on device and browser.
Also, does that presume you're going to have two systems: one for emoji (whether that converts back and forth from real emoji codes to images) and one that's just for straight images that the admin sets up?

I find I often need ones that aren't in the stock set, but I think that depends a lot on your community.
Also, hi, has been a long time!

I love using smiley's so I would be all for maybe a bulk uploader for different sets but emoji's could create more problems than what they are worth.
