Emoticon-fest... imagine...

This was suggested again in a beta thread a short time ago, but originates as far back (to my knowledge) to several people when the ideas for RP use were flying around (remember RP's.... RIP etc.... wasted opportunity)

I love the idea. More to personalise the game can only be a positive step- some won't care or use it, but many will. Add in your 'own' homepage as well, perhaps. Add more design to the stadium, goal celebrations, even dug-outs if need be.

Some concerns were on the numbnuts abusing it and creating abusive or crude emoticons but, as ever, I'm sure the rules could apply to this as they do to the written word.

I guess the reality is the time to code such an addition -v- coding the current plans. I suspect that this might be either a long term or never term idea whilst the SI team is thin on the ground with resources.

  1. For the time being it would be nice to have a comp whereby an emotion is selected from all those put forward by the community to be added to the game.

    This would be a great little event.

  2. Yep... even small additions could end up being draws to the game.
