[Misc] The Laughing Emoji- Has It Had It's Time ?

[Eeyore]

It seems to have become increasingly noticeable in some threads that have a lot of folk in considered discussion, whether in agreement or not, that the only response of some is to use the laughing emoji. On one thread alone, a member has used it 50 times whilst only making ten, barely considered, contributions. This can be an irritation as they are bringing nothing to the party except mockery. It is clearly designed to troll.

So, is it perhaps time to get ride of the laughing emoji, or try another avenue to stop this ?

EDIT: How does one delete threads ?

Keep it, but only if used with words as well.

I don't get why some posters feel the need to put an emoji at the end of every post they make.
