SEmotes | Emoticons for Sponge (Idea)

The idea is quite simple:

  1. You listen to incomming messages.
  2. If the parser detects an emote in
    it’s short form, like <3, or it’s long form, like [heart], it
    changes it to it’s more complex form as :heart:.
  3. If a mod is installed on
    the client side, it changes it to an emoji :gift_heart:.

What do you think?

The 3rd point sounds like a good idea. :smiley:

For the second, though, doesn’t Minecraft already do that? I know they convert simple ‘:)’ smilies to :slight_smile: anyways.

I’m not sure what you are talking about, I just tried on vanilla 1.8.3 and ‘:)’ stays ‘:)’

I swear I’ve seen it. xD Maybe it was a plugin that did what this is talking about. :3

I like 3 as long as there is a plugin for it to.
