I cant imagine using new emotes they are ugly and not recognizable by most.
I loved using emotes and they were fun. Chatting without them is plain boring.
Without old emotes i may just go and shut myself up.

Hello all,
Thanks for your feedback on the new emotes. While I think they are immensely clever and add so much more flavor to chat, I can understand if you don't agree. That said...
First, the old generic yahoo emoticons are not going to return. I'm sorry.
In the meantime (as what I hope will be a workable compromise) we are looking to add the option to the new upcoming chat system overhaul to uncheck a "use racial emotes" option. So that if you do not like them, you can turn them off and only see the traditional text emotes like :) for example.
I hope this helps, but again, this is something that will come with the new chat system and is understandably lower priority than some other things going into that chat upgrade.
Until that time, I'm sorry if you don't like the new emotes. This is certainly a touchy subject and is a matter of personal opinion and taste that it would be impossible for us all to agree upon.
Thanks for your patience.

When majority are unhappy about new emotes one need to think a rollback. I am sad with you using your authoritativeness to reject a just demand.

You just can't differentiate between them... is that a smile?
Contrast is too severe and too much detail...
I appreciate the effort, but they do not enhance my enjoyment of the game.

Those that love the old emoticons can use them again using the javascript page, what is the complaint about? (except that you cant force others to see it the way you wish?)
let those of us who like the supposedly ugly new icons enjoy them.
