Add kumquat emoji

I would like to suggest adding a kumquat, and maybe an evil kumquat emoji to the forums and to messages. It could work as :kumquat: or :evilkumquat: and _kumquat_ or _evilkumquat_

What if it encouraged spam? I might also later make one that can be used in the forums.

How would it encourage spam? It would just be adding another possible emoji, such as using ;lol; or _meow_

No support. The kumquat joke has gotten old and to be honest it's just getting annoying.

It could still encourage spam, it probably wouldn't matter what emoji it is.

But can't anything encourage spam? Projects, comments, forum posts, regular emojis…

So are you suggesting emojis being removed? I don't agree, just report whoever's spamming and move on.

How would this encourage more constructive posts?

Seeing that emojispam isn't a problem in comments, there's not really a problem (that I can think of at the moment) with adding this emoji to comments only, but evil kumquats is a forum thing and so it would make more sense to have them for forum posts instead.

I'm just providing ideas for no-supporters and supporters though it's generally not a good idea to support or no-support in the first place because it leads to having posts that just say “support” or “no-support”

EDIT: fixed spelling

Anyway, support. Adding a kumquat emoji would be a fun addition

I support the addition of this emoji. Even though it wouldn't be necessarily useful, it could just be used as an inside joke or a fun feature.

Also you contradicted yourself here:

What? What does this have to do with fame? It's proposing a new emoji

I suggest you read the entire OP again, because it has nothing to do with fame. It's just suggesting a new emoji.

One that is a real emoji would be easier to use. I also removed the picture because I heard that TinyPic can have viruses.

I made kumquat emojis! For a normal kumquat, use this:
