Don't activate forum emojis unless there are spaces next to them.

I think a better solution would be removing smiley shortcuts and only being able to use them with the dropdown.

And maybe, if people want the shortcuts, there would be an option to enable them next to all the other signs. It would be turned on by default, and users would be able to turn it off.

I think this idea is better because I can see how this feature could easily go wrong in many ways.

That makes sense, but..

How could it go wrong? I'm can't really see how it could, could you explain please? :)

I still haven't got the answer to my question after 4 pages…

scratchers who didn't see the new update might not know that emoji shortcuts have to have spaces next to them, it could also break a lot of already existing emojis.

All emojis used right now will stay the same, only emojis after this addition would have to use it. Maybe add an announcement?

The thing is that it would look weird if it was the wrong size and ending up emphasising something that wasn't intended to be emphasised.

Ditto.

Why am I doing this at such late? Because I take medication now and my sleep schedule is messed up!!

Here's a problem:

This emoji doesn't have any spaces beside it, yet I still want it to render.

Here's another problem. It's in this very sentence

See? There's only one space, yet I still want it to render.

Completely agree! Also, could this cut spamming? Not sure on that part, but it will make the forums easier and cleaner!

Hmm, this is a problem, most people wouldn't want to type an extra space at the end of the text.
In your examples, both emojis are being used in a completely new line or at the end of one. Perhaps this “spaces around before rendering” rule can be bypassed if the emoji is being used on a new line, or if it's at the end of one with no text after it on the same line.

bump because on second page.
