This would also make me feel uncomfortable to use Scratch online. If it is added, I would probably abandon this account, never use Scratch online again, and use the offline version on Scratch, then almost nobody can see my projects, and I will need to cancel my MAP and DTA, and drop out of the MAPs and DTAs that I'm going to join. I wouldn't want be wanting to talk to a user, and then they post it.

It seems too inappropriate for Scratch.

Give us one reason why this emoticon is inappropriate. That quote from the Scratch rules has NOTHING to do with the purpose of this emoticon. has nothing to do with love or “shipping like fedex”.

It doesn't, but I was using the quote to show why it wouldn't be appropriate. Also it might encourage users to use the emotion the wrong way if they don't know what the real purpose for it is.

You still have told us why it is not for all ages! You keep dodging the question. If you don't give good reasons why not to scratch may just

Ship It

Let's just call it :shareit: since the Internet definition of shipping is pairing fictional characters.

Comment, clearly, as everything needed is already in place.

Then shouldn't it be _shareit_? Using colons is for forum emojis, not comment emojis

Also, if :shipit: is too meta, :shareit: or _shareit_ would be a neat alternative.

Front post, my good sir. It explains that :shareit: or _shareit_ would be welcome alternatives.

But it doesn't say whether you are talking about comments or the forums, and the title is :shareit:, so it looks like it's a forum emoji…

Too meta?

Those who have used GitHub are almost definitely aware of the following image:

…the :shipit: squirrel. It refers not to shipping cartoon characters or cats, but rather the workflow of GitHub.
As a nod to those at GitHub and the Advanced Topics forums, I think it would be pretty funny to insert _shipit_ (or, more appropriately, _shareit) among the ranks of _meow_ and _gobo_. A squirrel may be out of place, though- how about this?

That's it. Feel free to look it up if you need any more .

Also- we are talking about comment emotes. (Thanks, BookOwl!) As such, _shareit_ would be most appropriate if this ended up being implemented.
