Empathy don't have all the emoticons that yahoo standard client have and this can be really annoying. If not create all this emoticons by defalut, Empathy could provide, like Pidgin, a way to add more emoticons.
see the list of these emotions i think we should implement them all have a look

I doubt that more than 5% of the users need these. It's not about the amount, it's about useful ones.

=> enhancement.
Comment 2 Bilal Shahid 2011-12-21 19:12:06 UTC
mostly people need this i also need this some people likes smileys mostly try to express their expression.
Comment 3 André Klapper 2011-12-21 21:06:14 UTC
So which exact smileys do you miss in Empathy for your IM conversations?
Comment 4 Bilal Shahid 2011-12-22 03:57:59 UTC
mostly emotions i think its a list so many i have given you the list please have a look mostly are not applicable in our empathy.
Comment 5 André Klapper 2011-12-22 10:30:10 UTC
Sorry but I won't spend an hour to go through your Yahoo list to compare empathy's and yahoo's emoticons. It's really up to the bug reporter to be specific in an enhancement request.
As I currently only see a "Provide more emoticons for the sake of having more" I'm going to close this as WONTFIX if you cannot specify.
