In-Game Emojis
Looking at the comment section of the official Riot Post about this, I think it's safe to say that THIS SHOULD NOT BE A THING, DO NOT LAUNCH THIS. This just screams bad idea. Everyone is already salty and tilted just looking at them in an introduction, I honestly have yet to see a single person not say "can we please get the option to disable them" or "this is a terrible idea".
If there is ever something to listen to the community about Riot, it's this. We were wrong about plants, they turned out to be cool and useful. These are trash and will make the game so much worse as a 100% fact.
So I ask you, PLEASE ABORT THIS IDEA LIKE IT'S AN UNWANTED CHILD BECAUSE THIS IS NOT WHAT WE WANT TO HAVE IN THE GAME!
Thank you.
