If a poster uses a modern unicode emoji in their subject line or post, it'll error out upon submission. Older unicode emoticons work fine. Can we remedy this? |

Very likely not. We're limited by what phpBB supports, and no offense, but there is absolutely no way I'm going to write a custom patch for phpBB for something so trivial.  Edit: To add to this, it's not a MySQL problem. MySQL supports 4 byte characters in the version that we are using, but phpBB does not. There's talk that they may support it in a future version, but it does not currently do so. |

No offense taken~ I can sit tight until that update. In the meanwhile, the board emoticons are p neat.
