Author Topic: Suggestion: New Emote (Read 14301 times)

Dear DKF,

I humbly submit the following for your consideration:

The Jimmy Houston hidden emote has stormed the DKF shoutbox, quite easily seeing at least twice the usage of many classics like , , , and possibly even himself.
There are several DKF members who have created their own emotes for Twitch, some of which are being referenced or used fairly frequently in the DKF shoutbox, Twitch chats, and other places classic gamers (CAGgots tend to visit.
The emotes are a part of DKF that most seem to find fun and/or useful ( as long as your s.o. is okay with them (I don't talk about such things (unless it comes up organically (like when discussing Crystal)))).

Given these facts and observations, I think Management should consider adding one or more new emotes to the DKF shoutbox every so often. Personally, I think one every 6 months or 2 per year would suffice, and would also prevent emote dilution and maintain the integrity and level of rhetoric we are accustomed to here at DKF.

Regardless of whether it happens or not, I really started this as a way to ask which "DKF emote" (i.e. created or used by those in or around the DKF community) folks would most like to see in the DKF chitbox. I have to go try and compile a list before I respond myself, but I look forward to hearing your responses.

Sincerely,

CaptainJivePants

Should we put it up to a vote? Maybe we could put someone who is passionate about these emotes in charge of them...? I think the idea of adding emotes is great - -and I think that limiting the addition of emotes to once every six months or twice a year is a good idea, too. If only we could get Dean to get FrankerFaceZ...

I think this is a great fun idea and a vote fun as well ^_^

Some of my favorites off the top of my head:
Fruitay
PNS
sizliN
JryPoo
CJPRage
ChitPie
SPgasm
KS
GetFred

That's a lot of choices already, so I am trying to figure out which ones would actually be used and which ones are kind of duplicating existing ones to narrow it down. Not sure there is something similar to

in the current set, for example, and it would be similar to the 'fffft' we see frequently. KS and ChitPie are DK-related, so they certainly make some sense, too, but that doesn't mean they would provide the humor, character, and unique applications some of the others do. Lots to consider here.

Brian is right -- HeyBri would be a great emote.
