Yes I posted a warning (In Virtual Lounge) I've tried my mobile and it works with no issue. However I attempted to edit the mobile post on my laptop. It got the post flooding notice as I had posted an emoji.

What a 'mare for those of us who NEVER use mobiles for anything but the occasional post.!!

[gmarkj]

🙄

jumping on the test band-wagon here...

[gmarkj]

just to be contrary that posted first time on laptop using Chrome...

[Cleoriff]

Now trying on Chrome and it didn't work. Got the post flooding notice.

Sick of it now. I'm off Lol

[TallTrees]

Thanks for getting us the results @Mi-Amigo 

Mine are worse than I predicted

Well done everyone 

[Cleoriff]

Testing... it appears I can copy and paste from the list of old emoji's HERE 

[pgn]

Hohum. new laptop. new chrome.

Keys in odd places...

emojis... snafu'd

Only phone emojis work, what a pain - emojiless 😞

And edit on laptop. am/nd save... what happens?

Nope - got to remove emojis

[Cleoriff]

I know I shouldn't be happy at your misfortune @pgn but I'm only human. (this is what happens when you save the forum emoji to your picture file!!)

As posted in the Virtual Lounge, I have tried Firefox (default browser), Chrome and Edge and none of them will post the forum emoji. Just get the highlighted error you've shown above, then when you press post again, I'm greeted with the Post Flooding error. Deep Joy!!

[pgn]

Oh how I laughed, not 😭

Still, for once 'mobile' is unaffected, good one O2/Lithium 🫣🤫🏅

[Cleoriff]

Computer was updated last night, so try again.

Post flooding detected so no magic cure!!

The above is a copy and paste from emoji box.
