4 Suggestions about Comment Emojis

#1: Facial expression emojis
We have these in the forums, so why not in comments? I think we need at least a smiley face and a sad face comment emoji. Rather than the familiar: : ) and : ( without the spaces we would have maybe _smile_ and _sad_, because people might not expect the emojis when they do it the way it is currently done for forums in comments.
Edit: This could not really be spammed more than it can be currently. Spamming like: : ) : ) : ) etc. is not any better than spamming :) :) :) etc.

#2: More fruit emojis
Since we have an apple emoji and sprites for apple, bananas, orange, and watermelon, why not emojis for bananas, orange, and watermelon? (Yes, I know the apple emoji was part of Edible Scratch.)
Please stop no supporting this because of spam. Consider the fact that what we already have can be spammed.
DELETION OF THIS SUGGESTION PENDING DUE TO SO MUCH NONSUPPORT!!!
(THIS IS ALSO GETTING LOTS OF SEMI-SUPPORT)

Edit: If you are non-supporting this, but you still want to keep the already-existing food emojis, why? As I said, what already exists can be spammed, and adding more would not do any more harm than the current emojis do. Even if we had only one emojis, someone could still just do it over and over and over.

#3: Change name of _meow_ emoji
I mean, right now it's called meow. It's not that easy to figure out that name. I think it should be called _cat_, _scratch_, _catshead_, or _scratchcat_.
Edit: ItchyCatIII thinks we could keep the current _meow_ emoji, but add _cat_ which would show the same picture!

#4: Fix problem with connected emojis and emojis connected to other strings
In comments, when you type emojis like this: _meow_ _meow_ they display as emojis next to each other. But when you type them like this: _meow__meow_ they don't appear as emojis. You have to put spaces between emojis. Now, say you wanted the _meow_ emoji to show up after the text “Yeah.”. It would work if you did it like this: Yeah. _meow_ But the emoji would NOT appear as an emoji if you did this: Yeah._meow_ You also have to put spaces between emojis and other strings! I think it should work even if you don't put in spaces.
Edit: Two more things: First, Tymewalk has pointed out that there might be a fault with _apple_meow_. I don't know about that, please give your own opinions. Second, remember that spam of messed-up code like _meow__gobo__waffle_ is no better than spam of the actual working emojis!

I support all four, but one thing I would like to add is having a separate bar where you can toggle different emojis rather than having to use the underscore method.
Note: I will only add you to the below list if you say “Support for extra suggestion” or something.
//Supporters: me, DrKat123

It isn't that vital, you are right about that, but can't you already spam with what we already have?

So you don't want facial expression emojis either?

Edit: Oh, and I agree, it isn't that vital, but some people would want to bring them back if we removed them!

2. Ehh… Semi-support. Edible Scratch has passed like a couple months ago…

3. Support. Why did they call it meow? Its not like an animation that says, “meow”…

4. Support. It might increase spam though… But that would be a rare case, so you can scratch that out…

#1 - Support.
#2 - Support. Both of these could be fun to have.
#3 - Still unsure, but I'm leaning towards no support.
#4 - No support. What if I type “_apple_meow_”? Which emoji does it show?

For those of you who are saying it could be spammed, the emojis we already have can (and sometimes are) spammed. I don't see how this will make a difference (apart from maybe some people trying it out on their profiles.) If you see spam on another person's project/profile (and there's no note that says “go ahead and spam” or something like that), it should be reported.

Really? I'm pretty sure I've seen them being called “emojis” on Scratch.

Actually, I'm pretty sure apple is the only one.
